Coming in from the past… re the Scottish doctor. I can’t see him on the GMC specialist register, so he’s not a consultant / hasn’t CCT’d.
Agreed. He removed it quickly from his Twitter bio when he caught some heat on here. He was discussed and evidenced that he's a nut job but I got burned at the stake.Coming in from the past… re the Scottish doctor.

Wow! Did he post that he was a consultant? The GMC would love to know about that. He’s implying credentials/expertise that he simply doesn’t have.Agreed.

I think he deserves his own thread but have no clue with where it would go or how to do it![]()
Look at his LinkedIn. And add Gibraltar into the mix.Wow! Did he post that he was a consultant? The GMC would love to know about that. He’s implying credentials/expertise that he simply doesn’t have.
I found the whole spiel about Jack ‘deserving’ money really bizarre. But what do you expect from a Wakefield fan (the person, not the town. No shade on West Yorks frau und herren intended).
OT so spoilered.Look at his LinkedIn. And add Gibraltar into the mix.
Oh, and his PhD is in Philosophy. So yeah.
If someone knows how to do a thread and where to put it I'll repost the stuff I dug up in the right place
Grift is strong with him
Thank you for confirming what I dug up!OT so spoilered.
He is a doctor. He’s currently registered to practice on the standard GMC register. His MB ChB is a medical degree.
He may well also have a PhD in Neuroscience. The ‘doctor of philosophy’ is no indicator of subject. I know as I have a PhDand my cert says this. It’s fairly typical for medical doctors to do a PhD mid-training, especially if they want to progress in competitive fields.
He may also be a member of the Royal College of Physicians, but I can’t find a search function. He will have passed the initial exam that is typically done as part of medical ‘core training’ (minimum 4 years post degree). This does not imply expertise in a speciality but broad competence across ‘medicine’ (as opposed to, say, surgery).
He may well be in the process of speciality, i.e. higher training. If he’s a physician, this won’t include psychiatry. That would require membership of the Royal College of Psychiatrists.
He is lying about being a ‘medical consultant’ as there is no such job title or role. He’s being tricksy with words and gets away with it as most people don’t have sufficient knowledge to interrogate.
Sorry if I am pointing out the obvious! I have enough knowledge about medicine careers to spot a liar or exaggerator a mile off
---Dr Goyal qualified in medicine from Aberdeen Medical School, UK. He then received training in both medicine and psychiatry, and completed a PhD in neurosciences. He is a Member of the Royal College of Physicians and a Member of the British Association of Neuropsychiatry.
Academically, Dr Goyal was a Principal Investigator at the University for Manchester for 5 years, where he led three clinical studies, was a PhD supervisor and Masters supervisor. He moved to General Internal Medicine at Oxford University Hospital where he also lectured on the Oxford University Medical School undergraduate course. Dr Goyal is currently a Consultant in Internal Medicine in Lorn and Islands Hospital in Scotland. His research interests are focused on Health Systems with a current focus on clinical care in COVID-19.
To be fair, he could easily have achieved the list above if qualified in 2001. If you have run-through core/specialist training (or just work really hard and stay full-time), it can be 8 years post medical school to consultant.
The senior lectureship is likely to be tied to having an honorary contract in a medical school (i.e. teaching medical students). Would be surprised if it’s an SL, though, as he’s emphatically not a consultant.
He’s in the same bin as the Van TunnockBollocks and a couple of other med-fluencers, who can all duck off out the niches of people who are properly qualified and accountable.
Mr tends to be used for surgical specialites and Dr for general medicine![]()
COVID: It never went away
The former health secretary has said the COVID pandemic is over. The reality could hardly be more different, with high case numbers, staff absences, and a terrible legacy of stress and overworkwww.bma.org.uk
Listed as a Consultant. Although given his politics Im not surprised he’s up the arse of the BMA
Stupid question: But my buddy who IS a consultant (on the specialist register and everything) is referred to as Mr? In that article GOYAL is referred to as Dr. Is this my buddy being a knob or is that normal?
Ah ok. He’s a Consultant in something plumbing related and the other one is a Consultant Psychiatrist so that must be it.Mr tends to be used for surgical specialites and Dr for general medicine
