About The Minor Ailments Project (MAP) and the International College of Physicians and Surgeons (ICPS) - Our Humble Story !

 

The Minor Ailments Project (MAP) has successfully been in operation (worldwide) ; since the year 1991.

 

That was the Era when (Music Megastar) Madonna was really (really) in Vogue ; and the (absolutely fabulous) Era when a (usually demure) Scottish Songstress , serenely named Eddi (Sadenia) Reader , (sensationally) succeeded in becoming the Glaswegian equivalent of Marilyn Monroe.

Alas : It was also the (highly turbulent) Royal Decade when (poor) Queen Elizabeth The Second , otherwise known as Lilibet , was painfully enduring (yet) another (utterly unfortunate) Annus Horribilis (or Two).


. . . Furthermore , (off the record), it was (additionally) the (very same) Era when some of us were still (scientifically) trying to figure out whether (American Showbiz Legend) Tina Turner (actually) had the most (anatomically) Perfect Set of (Female) Legs in the whole of the Entertainment Industry ; but that is (definitely) a (totally different) Story (altogether) , most preferably for another day . . .

 

Thankfully , the Minor Ailments Project has obviously come (quite) a very long way (indeed) , since then ; most especially in terms of etiquette , fashion , and posture.

All of our Clinical Advisers are fully qualified , intensively trained ; and comprehensively insured.

We frequently hire quite a lot of retired Medical Doctors , retired General Nurses and retired Community Pharmacists ; so please do send in your Full CV to us , if you are willing to retrain as a QCA (Qualified Clinical Adviser).

 

Professor Obi boldly created the Minor Ailments Project (MAP) way back , a few decades ago (or so) ; in order to bring lots of vibrant people together with lots of other equally passionate people , who were always ready to try something new.
