Physician associates in neurology
Manage episode 428913777 series 2890841
Shayan Ashjaei is a Neurology Physician Associate, based at King’s College Hospital. I asked Shayan all about his background in neuroscience, his personal connection to wanting to work in neurology, and what he loves about the speciality. Shayan passionately explains his choice of specialising in neurology and provides a glimpse into his daily activities on the ward, which involve delivering exceptional patient care, participating in exciting procedures, and serving as an educator. Shayan is able to work on a number of clinical procedures including lumbar punctures, skin and muscle biopsies. Shayan has also developed, implemented and delivered regular lumbar puncture teaching and is trained to perform greater occipital nerve (GON) blocks for acute neurology patients with occipital neuralgia, cluster and cervicogenic headaches. Shayan has also worked on a “neurology virtual clinic” - a unique virtual post-discharge clinic for neurology inpatients’ investigations, to improve follow up and the safety of patient care. For those seeking further information, Shayan can be contacted through his Instagram account, Neurolgy.PA, where he actively engages with followers and shares valuable insights about his journey in the field of neurology.
