John Shaju

My passion for medicine and delivering high-quality patient care has led me to pursue a career in the NHS as a junior doctor. Currently, my short-term goal is to gain valuable experience and expertise as a Junior Doctor. The prospect of making a meaningful difference in patients is a driving force behind my passion. Dedicated to continuous professional growth, I am optimistic that, through persistent effort and commitment, I can realize my career aspirations within the NHS.

As a junior doctor, I am committed to growing my career within the NHS by delivering exceptional patient care, while constantly striving to improve my skills and knowledge. I take pride in working to the highest clinical standards, consistently receiving feedback from consultants, and colleagues alike. My personal attributes include compassion, a welcoming attitude, and clear communication, alongside my commitment to improving my skills and the quality of care provided. I have good work ethics, as I have always embraced people from diverse backgrounds, treating everyone equally, with compassion and respect. I believe in bringing up a positive work environment where good communication and teamwork play a vital role in excellent patient care. I have received positive feedback from my patients about my kind and compassionate approach toward my patients and colleagues alike. Reflecting on my career so far, I believe an important skill for a doctor is to develop trust within his team and with the patient by maintaining the principles of respect and integrity. Recognizing the significance of professional development, and acknowledging my limitations, I am eager to implement the knowledge and skills gained throughout my career, and to continue pursuing educational and research opportunities as I progress as a doctor.
