Sir, – Isn’t it about time that we stopped using the title junior hospital doctor (or the even more cumbersome non-consultant hospital doctor) and use the term hospital doctors and hospital consultants. And while we are at, it let us dispense with the archaic “Master” to describe the lead doctor in our maternity hospitals, especially as their patients are all female and the lead doctor in the National Maternity Hospital (Holles Street) is a woman. – Yours, etc,
