Have I missed something? She works for the NHS so I thought it might be something to do with patient care or medicine but I've seen a few posts on here that suggest it might be to do with plastic surgery. Has it been mentioned in a previous episode?

She's only an FY2 at most so she'll know very little about either of those two fields. Maybe it's for a lip pouting business?

I think its some sort of "High Street" cosmetic surgery type business, if it was a full cosmetic surgery business then A: she's not qualified and B: £250,000 may just about hire a surgeon for the year.

From what I've heard, I think she already runs two mobile cosmetic surgery clinics, and is wanting to set up a permanent one. People are assuming that's the business she'll be looking investment for.

In the interview previews - you saw Mike Souter pointing at his neck asking Leah what advice could she give him...... She looked like a rabbit in the headlights!

If you're a qualified nurse or Dr you can do the botox clinics, etc. My Mrs has been offered that sort of work, it's very lucrative. It is a very ad-hoc business at the moment. Perhaps she's looking at possibly a formal business model for it.

Would hire you about 2 consultant surgeons or 5 Registrars

NHS maybe, in the Private Sector not sure.

Cosmetic Surgery is all about your "track record" and thats going to cost, yes she could hire someone straight from medical school/ or whatever training surgeons do, but would you entrust yourself to a beginner?

Leah currently runs mobile skin rejuvenation clinics and has been looking to set up a permanent clinic, which I am assuming is her business plan... Its not cosmetic surgery its basically botox and fillers.

Leah to client ...' you too can look like me with a face devoid of expression and strange pouty lips' .... client to Leah ... 'let me outta here'

Considering her target audience basically WANT to look exactly like her, it's a good fit.

Cosmetic surgery is getting some bad press at the moment as many more unscrupulous Plastic Surgeons go for the money and vain people wanting unnecessary procedures. When the patient does not come out looking EXACTLY hoe they imagined they sue! I do not think LSugar would get involved in any high st botox clinic

I'm really surprised! The only reason I mentioned the NHS in my OP was because in her Twitter bio she's described herself as an NHS doctor. I thought that meant she was a GP or something... shows what I know!

She is an NHS Dr in a hospital, her mobile clinics are something she does on the side of her NHS job.

Even if she loses, she may hope someone watching the show will invest.

She's only starting out on her doctor training. She's pretty much straight out of medical school.

I know quite a few people who do these botox injection things. They buy them of the manufacturers and simply have a corner in a salon or such like and work from there. You do need to be a registered nurse or doctor to actually carry out the procedure but if this is what she's proposing it's hardly innovative.

Aren't Junior Doctors always moaning about the long hours they work? She's so busy she can start a new business and star on a TV reality show, hope we're not paying for her!

Junior doctors or FY 1 and 2's are restricted to a 48 hour working week, so get at least one 9 to 5 shift off every week. Quite enough time to run a mobile clinic. Not like the 120 hour weeks we did in my day!

Leah's an attractive woman but those pinkified, puffy lips remind me of pudenda and nothing more. In place of a face and brain is a bottom, a front bottom.

If some women wish to walk around with a form of vagina on their face, then good luck to them. This is post-feminism after all ...

Leah's lips are natural... really. On the Meet the Final Five show they showed a picture of her from school and she was the same then!

Maybe, but what would she need Alan sugar for?

Also.... Why would you think he'd be interested in a cosmetic surgery business

I think he would avoid like the plague due to the possibility of bad publicity / health scares etc.

He's unpredictable I suppose, but I agree with you. It just doesn't sound like,something he'd be interested in

I had to google that word and was lucky that no image results came up!

There's money in it. She comes with a diploma that tells him she can do it The alternatives may be the wrong people, or just wrong. I agree though its not something i would think he would want to be associated with - as its regarded by many as unnecessary and a waste of money and un PC. .There's also the danger of the Lord Sugar ruined my looks , or I spent the baby's food money on new lips stories.

There also seems something wrong with having Lord Sufgar's face associated with the idea of cosmetic improvement. "Pay up and you can look like me" just looks, literally, wrong.

She may have some positive angle on it though.
