WHO delivers health supplies to Al-Shifa Hospital, appeals for continued access to address urgent needs in north #Gaza WHO staff participated in a joint UN mission to Al-Shifa Hospital in north Gaza on 16 December to deliver health supplies and assess the situation in the facility. Partners on today’s mission included OCHA, UNDSS, and UNMAS. The team delivered medicines and surgical supplies, orthopedic surgery equipment, and anesthesia materials and drugs to the hospital. Al-Shifa Hospital, currently minimally functional, needs to urgently resume at least basic operations to continue serving the thousands in need of lifesaving health care.Once the most important and largest referral hospital in Gaza, Al-Shifa now houses only a handful of doctors and a few nurses, together with 70 volunteers, working under what WHO staff described as “unbelievably challenging circumstances" and calling it a “hospital in need of resuscitation.” The operating theatres and other major services remain nonfunctional due to a lack of fuel, oxygen, specialized medical staff, and supplies. The hospital is only able to provide basic trauma stabilization, has no blood for transfusion, and hardly any staff to care for the constant flow of patients. Dialysis is being provided to approximately 30 patients a day, with the dialysis machines operating 24 hours a day, seven days a week, using a small generator.The team described the emergency department as a “bloodbath”, with hundreds of injured patients inside and new patients arriving every minute. Patients with trauma injuries were being sutured on the floor, and limited to no pain management is available at the hospital. WHO staff said that the emergency department is so full that care must be exercised to not step on patients on the floor. Critical patients are being transferred to Al-Ahli Arab Hospital for surgeries. Tens of thousands of displaced people are using the hospital building and grounds for shelter. A multi-pronged humanitarian response is needed to provide them with food, water and shelter. Many of them asked our team to tell the world what is happening in the hope that their suffering might soon be eased. Al-Shifa Hospital continues to experience a severe shortage of food and safe water for health workers, patients, and displaced people. This reflects grave and growing concerns around persistent hunger across the Gaza Strip, and the consequences of malnutrition on people’s health and susceptibility to infectious diseases. WHO is committed to strengthening Al-Shifa Hospital in the coming weeks, so that it can resume at least basic functionality and continue to provide the lifesaving services that are needed at this critical time. Up to 20 operating theatres in the hospital, as well as post-operative care services, can be activated if provided with regular supplies of fuel, oxygen, medicines, food, and water. Substantial additional specialized medical, nursing and support staff, including emergency medical teams, are also urgently needed.Currently, Al-Ahli Arab Hospital remains the only partially functional hospital in north Gaza, along with three minimally functional hospitals—Al-Shifa, Al Awda and Al Sahaba Medical Complex—down from 24 before the conflict. WHO is also gravely concerned about the unfolding situation at Kamal Adwan Hospital and is gathering information urgently. As hostilities continue and health needs across the Gaza Strip increase, Al-Shifa Hospital, a cornerstone of Gaza’s health system, must be urgently restored so that it can serve besieged people trapped in a cycle of death, destruction, hunger, and disease.

One of the most challenging parts of being a physician on call during the holidays is finding the balance between practicing evidence-based medicine and helping patients achieve what matters most to them—especially when those goals involve spending cherished moments with their loved ones. For some patients, this may be their last holiday with family, and we do everything we can to honor their wishes while ensuring they receive the best care possible. Whether it’s attending a special event, participating in a beloved tradition, or simply being home with family, every patient’s goals and priorities are unique. Deciding whether to discharge someone early, delay chemotherapy to minimize side effects during the holidays, or prioritize comfort over the ‘standard of care’ is never straightforward. This is where the art of medicine comes in—collaborating with patients to find a path forward that respects their goals while delivering compassionate, high-quality care. It’s a process that hinges on trust and open, honest communication. As physicians, we work to create a space where patients feel heard, valued, and empowered to take part in the decision-making process. Medicine is about more than just treatments; it’s about people. And during the holidays, that truth resonates even more deeply. Take the time to talk to your doctor, share your goals, and ask questions. Trust and connection are at the core of great care. 💙 #HolidayCare #ArtOfMedicine #CompassionateCare #PatientCenteredCare #WomenInMedicine #WIMStrongerTogether #PhysicianLife

There have been rumors going around that I'm not a doctor, a fake MD, faking my credentials, haven't worked in neurosurgery, etc. This was started by "Dr Idz" Dr Idz and has been pushed around by the likes of Dr Alo, Layne Norton, PhD and Stan Efferding among others. These rumors are categorically false and defamatory, and my lawyers have sent letters to this effect to many of the above named individuals. So let's just set the record straight. I am a medical doctor with a post graduate medical degree from the Royal College of Surgeons, class of 2013. This is an internationally recognized and accredited medical school whose degrees are equivalent to the MD degree granted in America, Canada, Australia, and many other countries. I completed my sub-internships at Duke University Medical Center in America in plastics, reconstructive, and maxillofacial surgery, as well as at Beaumont Hospital in Dublin in neurosurgery and orthopedic surgery. I was an intern at Cork University Hospital, and at St Vincent's Hospital in Dublin for my second year. After this I took some time off for family reasons as well as to do humanitarian work in the refugee camps in Bangladesh helping the Rohingya refugees who escaped a genocide in Burma in 2017. For nearly 6 years now I have been a practicing physician in Australia, predominantly as a neurosurgical registrar at Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital in Perth, and more recently in my own private metabolic health practice. I have an active medical license and I'm registered with the Australian licensing board, AHPRA, and this can be found easily on their website by searching for for my name on their registry. So for those who have been spreading these lies and false rumors, now you know the truth, and if you continue to spread these lies you will be committing libel and defamation and may get a letter from my lawyers as well if you're not careful. Thank you! #doctor #weightloss #diet #nutrition #weightlossjourney

SHE WATCHED HER MOTHER DIE. THEN THEY VANDALISED HER GRAVE. Julie Bailey (Julie Bailey) ran a small cafe in Stafford. Then her 86-year-old mother Bella was admitted to Stafford Hospital for a hernia operation in 2007 and never came home. What Julie witnessed on those wards was one of the worst scandals in NHS history. Patients left without food, fluids or medication. Confused elderly people ignored. Complaints disappearing into filing cabinets. Hundreds more people died at Stafford Hospital between 2005 and 2008 than should have been expected, with the hospital's emergency care described as appalling. So Julie did what any reasonable person would do when the system refuses to listen. She turned her cafe into a campaign headquarters. She plastered the walls with photographs of the dead. She founded Cure the NHS and started making noise. The NHS hierarchy did not thank her. She received death threats. Vandals attacked her mother's grave. A video circulated online expressing hope that she would die. A paramedic posted on Facebook that he hoped she suffered a life-threatening illness. She was forced to sell her cafe, leave Stafford, and ended up living in a caravan in Worcestershire. That is what happens when you tell the truth about the NHS in a town that would rather protect its postcode than its patients. The Francis Inquiry eventually validated everything she said. Sir Robert Francis QC made 290 recommendations, calling for fundamental change across the NHS. David Cameron apologised in the House of Commons. Julie Bailey was awarded a CBE.
