Helping doctors navigate new health systems with confidence When Dr Anish John Kuriakose moved to the UK to practise medicine, he faced a challenge familiar to many international clinicians navigating a new healthcare system with different guidelines and expectations. For him, BMJ Best Practice became a crucial bridge. Now a BMJ Best Practice clinical champion, Dr Kuriakose uses his experience to advocate for the power of evidence based decision support tools. His commitment stems from what he sees daily on the frontline: patient care improves when doctors have instant access to reliable, current clinical guidance. One example came during a medical on-call shift when he encountered a patient in thyroid storm, a rare and potentially life threatening emergency outside his gastroenterology expertise. BMJ Best Practice’s precise, structured algorithms gave him the clarity and speed needed to act decisively and safely. He’s had this experience repeatedly, and it’s changed the way he works. “BMJ Best Practice helped me transition to UK care based guidelines quite quickly. I would have struggled using any other resource.” Dr Anish John Kuriakose , gastroenterology and general internal medicine registrar, Liverpool University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, UK
