Welcome to the sixth episode of season three of Conversations in Fetal Medicine, where we speak to Sally Boxall, now a specialist nurse in Fetal Medicine in Southampton but consultant nurse in that unit for more than two decades until she semi-retired. It's the last one for this season, but we will definitely be back for more in a few months. Keep an eye out for a special bonus episode too (fingers crossed)!

Sally Boxall's bio in her own words:

Specialist nurse in Fetal Medicine, Wessex Fetal Medicine Unit, Southampton

I initially trained as a nurse alongside a degree in life sciences at Liverpool university back in the dark ages, and then did my midwifery training in Southampton. Rather than working as a midwife I became the first specialist nurse in genetics in the Wessex Region, and then after 10 years, in 1996, was offered a post as a specialist nurse within the newly created Wessex fetal medicine unit. In 2000 I was appointed as a consultant nurse in fetal medicine and continued in that role until I semi-retired in 2022. I now work part-time as a specialist nurse and spend the rest of my time being a lady that lunches. Married with 2 grown up daughters, 2 grand-daughters and a manic dog.
