Our @FrontGastro_BMJ #IBD Associate Editor @Y_ECCO_IBD - Nuru is a legend!
🚀 Congratulations to rising star Dr Nuru Noor, named Trainees Young Gastroenterologist of the Year! #BSGLIVE25 @BSGTrainees
Great to see this. @stomababe delivers well and she is someone that those with severe bowel issues can look to when they are having to consider such surgery. Certainly one of my relatives did, great to see these things being discussed so openly.
'I wouldn’t leave the toilet. Now I’ve got my life back!' Ulcerative colitis nearly killed her. A stoma saved her life. Now @StomaBabe is raising awareness of invisible illness, fighting stigma, and inspiring thousands.
