چکیده

Many of us in medicine get used to delivering talks and lectures of one sort and another in front of large audiences. What is it about this occasion that reduces grown men (and perhaps women: there have been one or two) to a state of high anxiety? As I look around, it’s not hard to see the reason.

Here I am, in the hospital where I have spent most of my professional life, which I have grown to love despite its imperfections, surrounded by colleagues, friends, teachers, family and loved ones; in short those with whom I have shared the ups and downs of professional and personal life. I am afraid to say so, but you really are quite intimidating. Nevertheless, I am grateful to you all for coming and I will try not to keep you too long.

A new RVH for a new century: maintaining clinical excellence. Annual oration: Royal Victoria Hospital, Belfast, October 2003.

This oration, and the record of it for publication, mainly focuses on the new Royal Victoria Hospital building opened officially on 2 September 2003, but it is interesting to compare and contrast the needs of the Royal Victoria Hospital at the ends of the 19th and 20th centuries.
