Post Script to Consultant Shadowing #1

I forgot to add that Jim actually missed his first consultation, and that Helen was luckily able to take over for him because her student cancelled their appointment. This made me very upset, firstly because I remember how vehement Dr. Essid was about not standing up our students, secondly because this put Helen in a difficult position and thirdly because he did not even apologise to Helen or show any kind of understanding of the consequences of his actions. This unprofessionalism probably added to the reason why I was less impressed with Jim than I was with Helen.
