  • Why The UK Keeps Running Out Of Medicines? (Truth About NHS Drug Shortages)
    Oct 10 2025

    A patient lying in a hospital bed waiting for an antibiotic that’s out of stock — this is becoming the new normal across the NHS. In this video, I uncover the truth behind the growing medicine shortages in the UK and why even basic drugs like penicillin, insulin, ADHD medication, and HRT are disappearing from pharmacy shelves. I explain how global supply chain issues, Brexit, and the NHS’s relentless push for low drug prices have turned what used to be rare disruptions into everyday crises. With shortages now tripling in just four years, I share real stories from the frontlines — pharmacists, doctors, and patients all struggling in a system built on fragility.From pharmaceutical manufacturing in India and China to the impact of COVID-19, currency collapse, and Brexit border delays, this video explores why Britain keeps running out of essential medicines and what that means for patient safety. I also discuss what needs to change — from reforming NHS drug pricing to investing in UK-based medicine production and improving supply chain resilience. If you care about the future of healthcare, NHS reform, and ensuring patients never go without life-saving medicines again, this is a must-watch.

  • Why Are Nurses & Doctors Burning Out In The UK?
    Oct 4 2025

    Why are doctors and nurses burning out in the NHS? In this episode of my Dose of Health podcast, I explore the reality behind the word burnout. It isn’t about weakness or laziness — it’s about a healthcare system that keeps asking staff to do the impossible with broken tools, endless bureaucracy, and too few resources. From junior doctors logging back in after night shifts, to nurses skipping meals just to keep up, and GPs drowning under hundreds of test results before 8am — this is the daily reality of the NHS workforce in 2025.I take a closer look at the latest NHS staff survey, pay erosion, understaffing, rising waiting lists, and IT systems that waste hours of clinical time. But most importantly, I show why healthcare professionals are not burning out because they’re weak — they’re burning out because they’re strong enough to keep going in a system designed to break them. If you care about the future of the NHS, or simply want to understand the crisis facing the people who care for us, this episode is essential.👉 Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe to my channel to support this movement and help more people hear the truth about what’s happening inside our NHS.
