Dr Joanna Barnden

Nominated for Paediatric Junior Hero (ST1-4s, FTs, GPST and Trust SHOs)

Has been working at Royal Devon University Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust – NORTHERN

Jo is an extremely competent doctor, acting at a level far higher that her grade suggests – though she would never believe it if told! She is extremely supportive and is always willing to put time aside for a colleague in need, both in and out of work.

Jo is an amazing doctor! She cares about her patients, making sure they are safe and well-taken care of at all times. Her neonatal knowledge far exceeds her level of training. She is kind and approachable both for her work colleagues and for families. I love working with Jo, as work-days are not only extremely efficient but also fun. She is a special kind of doctor that makes families trust her and be sure they are in best hands possible.
