Dylan Fisher Barry (he/him) is a Geriatric Medicine Specialty Registrar training in the North West London Deanery.
He recognises that working in Geriatric Medicine is often about advocating for those who may have lost their voice or may not be able to advocate for themselves and training in London has highlighted the challenges that different communities or individuals may face in navigating access to services and in health outcomes. His involvement with the committee stems from a belief that it is part of his privileged role as a doctor to tackle barriers to equitable access to healthcare, recognise diversity and cultivate an environment of inclusion within the workplace for both patients and staff. He feels this is particularly important at a time when EDI has become a debated political topic.
He is also a member of the BGS Trainees Council as one of the Less Than Full Time (LTFT) representatives
