The Wright Society Attend Lecture at St Thomas’
Lower Sixth Form Wright Society members had the opportunity to attend a medical school lecture by Dr Suneil Ramasseur at St Thomas’ Hospital in London. Caterham pupils joined Fourth Year King’s College medical students in delving into the intricacies of pain, including its various forms, treatment and assessment. Dr Ramasseur also explained the concepts of spinal anaesthetic and epidurals, and their applications in clinical practice. At the end of the lecture, pupils benefited from the chance to ask Dr Ramasseur, as well as a few current and willing medical students, about pain management, medicine as a profession, and life at medical school.
A big thanks to Dr Ramasseur for allowing us to attend this lecture, as well as to Mr Quinton and Mrs Brown for organising and facilitating the trip, giving pupils a glimpse into what medical school may be like for them.
