In this episode of the Heart podcast, Digital Media Editor, Dr James Rudd, is joined by Dr Joanna Poole, an anaesthetics trainee who has been instrumental in publicising doctors' negative experiences within the NHS. These were picked up by the GMC and fed into its recent report on caring for doctors. Please see the links below to Jo's Guardian interview, the GMC report and her blog post.
