Philosophy
How I teach.
The best teaching in emergency medicine does not happen in lecture theatres. It happens at the whiteboard between resuscitations, at the bedside with a confused presentation.
My teaching is built around three things: a clinical hook that creates genuine uncertainty, a structured decision framework, and an honest debrief that acknowledges the limits of the evidence.
Trainees remember cases, contrasts, and the moments where the diagnosis was missed. They remember how you reasoned, not what you recited.
Core principles
01
Teach through decisions, not facts
02
Clinical uncertainty is a skill to model
03
Feedback without a framework is noise
04
Five minutes at the whiteboard beats fifty in a lecture
05
Document what you teach — trainees need evidence
06
Show the limits of guidelines, then reason past them
