Top Ten Films for Medics

Consultant Dib Datta gave a very informative lecture on Friday 23rd September 2011 on the top ten films that medics should watch. This sits well with the work the Trust is doing on Medical Humanities, and will no doubt help inform future film choices for The Dress Circle Film Society.

The films will be added to the medical humanities section of the intranet, which can be viewed by Trust staff here: http://mtwintranet/learning-and-development/medical-humanities.asp.

Details of The Dress Circle Maidstone Film Society can also be seen here, all Trust staff are welcome to attend.
