Commendations are back! We kick off this new and shiny academic year by celebrating six student doctors for doing something particularly spectacular.
If you’re new to this – commendations are a brilliant way of recognising those we see around us that go above and beyond in a particular circumstance, whether that be on clinical placements, in their studies or through extracurricular activities.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to nominate. If you're a student doctor at Liverpool School of Medicine, head over to the student intranet to download a form and help spread a little joy by acknowledging exceptional talent this year.
