Today is World Diabetes Day. Do you know the symptoms to look out for?

If you have diabetes, it is important to eat healthily, take regular exercise and carry out regular blood tests to ensure your blood glucose levels remain stable.

It is also important to have regular health check-ups and be aware of the likely long-term complications, so that early detection and treatment is possible.

Joseph Fox, Front of House Team Leader at The London Clinic’s Rapid Diagnostic Centre in Harley Street is also a Freedom to Speak Up Guardian. He spends a lot of his time encouraging staff to speak up and raise concerns if they have them. And for Movember, he says he'll be using those speak up skills to encourage male friends and colleagues to be more open about their health and getting checked out.

Passionate about both helping people and mental health, he enjoys his role as a Freedom to Speak Up Guardian, helping to raise concerns and to improve the quality of The London Clinic for both patients and staff alike.

Movember which takes place throughout November, focuses on men’s mental health and su***de prevention, and prostate and testicular cancer. Its aim is to encourage men to not only check themselves regularly but to not put off seeking medical advice for any concerns they have.

“I speak to a lot of people, usually when it comes to listening, people think they need to problem solve instead of just empathising. But often people just need to be heard, there doesn’t need to be a solution” says Joseph, 26, who has worked at The London Clinic since 2022.

Joseph says there are two sides of the coin when it comes to discussions – and whilst listening is a BIG part, giving men the courage to actually talk about things is the main issue: the skill of listening can really help men who may need to just talk about their health concerns.

He believes too many men are reluctant to face up to some health worries and would like to see more men talk openly to their friends – or better still – make a health appointment instead of putting it off.

“I speak to a lot of consultants, and many say it is a bit depressing that so many men ignore their health – particularly in regards to prostate exams often giving the excuse ‘we’ll cross that bridge’ when we come to it. Often they leave it too late.”

If you spot a friend whose behaviour is out of character, it's important to check in with them.

To bra, or not to bra? That is the question...

When it comes to the generation gap, it seems Gen Z are ditching bras for a less restrictive feel. In today's Daily Telegraph
Mr Debashis Ghosh, a consultant breast and oncoplastic surgeon at The London Clinic, says around one in three of the breast reductions he performs are for women who want to avoid bras altogether.

“For many women, particularly after breast reduction surgery, comfort and choice are the key priorities. Some simply want to feel confident wearing a dress without a bra.”

He adds that wearing a bra can help to “maintain a lifted shape.” He says a “well-fitted bra reduces gravitational pull and repetitive breast movement, which can stretch the skin and ligaments over time, especially in women with larger or heavier breasts.”

Resuscitation training is a responsibility our staff take seriously but it’s also a chance for our colleagues to learn together and support one another.

Seven of our colleagues recently completed an Advanced Life Support (ALS) course, the highest level of resuscitation training required for emergency bleep holders.

It was a full day of learning, teamwork and hands-on practice, with everyone working hard to keep their skills sharp and ready.

And we’re delighted that The London Clinic has now been approved by the Resuscitation Council UK as an ALS training centre, allowing us to continue developing these vital skills in-house.
