#214 Doctors, Dragons, and Delirious laughter with Dungeon Master Dr Chris Timms

Medicine is serious work — but that doesn't mean doctors can't have fun. In this special episode of The GP Show, Drs Rob Park, Ash Broomfield, and Sam Manger get together to put the guidelines down, pick the dice up, and step into the wonderful world of Doctors and Dragons. Joined by GP and Game Master Dr Chris Timms, they swap consult rooms for a fantasy adventure filled with goblins, laughter, and questionable decision-making. They clearly have no idea what they are doing - so have a listen if you've ever been curious what dungeons and dragons is as expert Dr Chris Timms adds a guiding orb of light.  What unfolds is more than just a game — it's a reminder that shared fun, creativity, and connection among friends can be a powerful antidote to professional loneliness. If you've ever felt isolated in medicine, or just want to remember what fun feels like, this episode is for you. ...
