Doctor's Lounge | We talk what matters to you ‪|‬ Dr Sajad Ahmad

This week I caught up with Tom Hales. Tom is a personal trainer and a fitness guru in Cardiff (UK). He has explored various methods of being the most productive and in the process has developed how to get stronger and fitter.   

I talked to him about new diets, the role of exercise and how many of us with a sedentary lifestyle can improve ourselves.

Leadership skills are often misunderstood. In this episode of Doctor's Lounge, we talk to Dr Salman Waqar about what makes an effective leader,

He graduated from Imperial College London, where he also intercalated with a BSc in Cardiovascular Sciences. At university he was an Ambassador for the College; elected as Trustee of the Union; and served on a national body representing over 120,000 students to UK & international government, higher education institutions, and media. He has extensive experience in widening participation and improving accessibility in education. He has also been invited overseas to speak about the UK undergraduate medical experience.
