I’ve been a doctor for years – why am I still called a ‘junior’?

The title junior doctor does not acknowledge the experience and training these medics have already accumulated.Today marks the start of a campaign by the Royal Society of Medicine to abolish the terms “junior doctor” and “trainee doctor”.It would also help to ease public confusion around the terms, with many unaware that junior doctors are not students but fully qualified doctors undertaking training in their speciality of choice.
