My girlfriend is also a junior doctor. She still works shifts at the hospital and whenever I can, I pick her up from work.
We noticed that if her shift finishes at 5pm then I should aim to pick her up at 5.15pm otherwise I’d just be waiting around as she never finishes on time.
It’s now 5.20pm and I’m still waiting for her as a patient had an unexpected heart attack on one of the wards.
You could build a city with the amount of overtime doctors do in England.
