Bella, the Junior Doctor
Bella is a Junior Doctor specialising in tropical medicine at Glasgow University.
Bella has endometriosis and diagnoses of ADHD and Dyslexia, all of which present obstacles to learning effectively from lectures.
Sometimes her endometriosis causes her so much pain that she’s unable to concentrate.
Glean has allowed her to take the power back, recording her classes and returning to them when she’s ready to.
“The thing I like most about Glean is that it eases a lot of anxiety because you know that if you’re not in the best space to take something in, you have another chance to do that in your own time.”
Glean helped Dr. Bella:
- Eases her anxiety, giving her the opportunity to learn when it suits her.
- Prevents her from missing out on key content, even when she’s in pain.
- Provides reassurance, and something to lean on when she’s unable to focus.
