Beautiful northern lights at Bolton

Let me get this straight. The public are struggling for weeks and months to get an appointment with a GP. We have 2000 less GPs than 10 years ago. Yet GPs can’t get jobs as they are being replaced by non doctors. This is the NHS your government think you and your loved

Having failed on its promise to deliver 6000 more GPs by 2024, the government is quietly replacing GPs with non-medics. Over half of all surgery appointments are now with non-GP staff such as PAs. It’s an astonishing, wholesale change to NHS care - without patient consent.

I became a consultant in 2012 after heading to medical school in 1991. It took me nearly 20 years to become a consultant / specialist. PAs cannot do it after a two year "masters". The only person who is a heart specialist is someone who has done medical training, passed post

Excellent work 👏😊

Proud of my son Rithwik 😊👍

Well done Shaun 👏👏

Took an Uber home on Tuesday evening from Central London. The person driving was a qualified GP unable to get work. Post CCT, 100+ applications / CV drops to salaried roles around Herts & Bucks.

FINALLY the Royal College of General Practitioners has called for a halt on any further recruitment of PAs as doctor substitutes in general practice. Heartfelt thanks to all frontline & senior staff who’ve fought for standards in medicine & patient safety. Shame on the leaders who haven’t.

Its absolutely shocking

“I genuinely think that they're slowly trying to replace doctors…” Junior doctor Eilidh calls James O'Brien to express her concern with the expansion of 'physician associates' in the NHS.

Europeans can be in amazing shape & live to 100+ while: • Eating carbs 24/7 • Rarely going to the gym • Drinking alcohol every day But when Americans do it? They become obese & get sick. It took some time... But I think I found what EXACTLY is going on: 🧵

Misleadingingly contextualised piece, Nick Triggle, which relies, predictably enough, on those infamous anonymous NHS senior sources. The crux of the issue is not, as you claim, 'the speed at which [PAs] are being recruited". 1/n bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
