The Disillusioned Medic
Inspiring those who feel stuck, beaten down & told that the mountain can’t be moved.
About Me
Hi, I'm anjalee
I started out as an NHS doctor, but in 2015 I left to pursue a more creatively fulfilling career. I went into strategic marketing and comms consultancy, co-founded CenSfera, and started coaching other doctors who were feeling stuck in the medicine world.
I thought my clinical days were well and truly behind me until covid-19 happened and now I’m back on the medical register! Who knows what the next few weeks will bring… but in the meantime I’ll be using my Disillusioned Medic platform to support doctors during this difficult time. Stay safe everyone.

I quit being a doctor because I’d had it with medicine.
Now I help others who feel the same.

Three mentoring sessions to figure out "what's going on?"

Five mentoring sessions to allow you to "tell me more"
seven sessions
Seven mentoring sessions so we can go into a "deeper dive"

I am an ex-junior doctor.
I worked in the NHS for just over two years. I went to medical school for six years. But in 2015, at the age of 26, I resigned from my job. I have been using this blog ever since to document my career journey, and the emotional process of leaving something that had become such a huge part of my identity.
