Junior doctor in Abergavenny: The ups and downs

Hospital doctors in Wales have warned of a "looming crisis" over workload and recruitment, adding to concerns about pressures already made by GPs.

The Royal College of Physicians found 43% of consultants believe rota gaps among junior doctors cause "significant problems" to patient safety.

Meanwhile, 40% of consultant physician vacancies could not be filled.

"In most cases, this was because there were literally no applicants," said Dr Alan Rees, RCP Wales vice president.

Dr Richard Gilpin, 33, a junior doctor on rotation at Nevill Hall Hospital in Abergavenny explains the ups and downs of the profession.
