Love your enemies

My current role
I am a consultant for inpatient and outpatient services in infectious diseases and general medicine.
I am the clinical lead for the Regional HIV Network, the training programme director for infectious diseases in the East of England, and the lead for the year five clinical medical student teaching in infectious diseases.
