Hi everyone, welcome to my podcast Our Extraordinary Stories.
My name is Dr Devika Patel I am a junior doctor working in the NHS specialising in psychiatry, which means I work with people who need support and treatment for severe mental illnesses.
In this episode, I speak to my dearest friend from university Dr Krishan Parekh. We both went to medical school together and became friends in 1st year. Krishan chose to specialise in anaesthetics- to become a doctor who work in theatres and ITU and completes complex life-saving procedures on seriously unwell patients. They were the doctors looking after the most unwell patients during the pandemic. Krishan gives a small insight into working during the pandemic and how it made him take the decision of taking a year out of training.
Trigger warning: COVID-19, pandemic, ITU
