Meet Dr Dev

Hi, I am Dr Dev. I am an NHS Internal Medicine Resident Doctor, helping clinicians navigate their careers, from understanding how the system works to pay, pensions and training. I also help organisations communicate healthcare clearly, credibly and responsibly.

Resources built for everyone who keeps the NHS running

What I wanted as a resident doctor: ranking jobs, picking a specialty, checking your rota and working out what you actually get paid. And of course, my valuable MDT has not been forgotten: platforms to see hospital data like EPR, note taking, reviews, prescribing and parking, and of course you get the pay resources too!
