Speaker: Lord Turnberg
We are honoured that Lord Turnberg, one of the leading British physicians of our times (and a Patron of the Jewish Medical Association) will be joining us to talk about his latest book “Patients First: How to Save the NHS”, published 20th May 2024.
Leslie Turnberg was President of the Royal College of Physicians; head of the Public Health Laboratory Service; a founder of the Academy of Medical Sciences; and for over 20 years has spoken in the House of Lords on health issues and the NHS. In his latest concise, accessible and focused book, he explains how the caring services must evolve, with a patient-centred model taking centre stage. He outlines how he feels that in 2024 the important aim must be to bring the disillusioned workforce back into satisfying and contented employment.
In addition, Leslie makes outstanding contributions to debates in the Lords about “Middle East issues”, supports Jewish healthcare professionals, and promotes links between the medical communities in the UK and Israel.
Copies of Lord Turnberg’s book will be available for sale at the webinar for £10; if you are going to be attending online you will be able to order them.
Option to join in person, or online.
