I am certain Doctors are purely used in the guise of a “training programme” that involves rotating in hard to fill places/rotas/depts- to do the work no one else can, will or has liability to do. The carrot of training and future good pay used to be enough to quell some. Not now.


sadly not a surprise

‘A physician associate told me I’d expect to have stomach aches at my age… it was a tumour.’ Caller Kim, a cancer patient, explains why she supports the doctors’ strike.



absolutely this. it is clear to anyone who works in primary care - we all know it.

This is a fallacy. The efficiency and effectiveness of an experienced GP holding and managing risk, referring selectively, managing & investigating pragmatically is by FAR the most cost effective part of the health service.

Can I ask the members of the holy MDT/ ACPs to tell me if I can work as a community pharmacist? I studied pharmacology for three semesters in medical school, and I’ve worked with pharmacists for years. Advanced doctor here.

🚨Doctors in Spain are striking. Why? Because our working conditions are unsustainable 🔹 Our base salary is ~€1,300/month. The rest comes from on-calls or “continuity shifts”, meaning we only earn a decent wage by working excessive hours often exceeding 60-70h/week 🔹on-calls…

So we are easing the job of the Receptionist by getting the GP to deal with the queries instead? Eh? If the amazon sorting facility is busy, do they get Jeff Bezos to stop what he is doing and do some sorting? Why does the media not challenge?

Streeting thinks allowing people to book GP appointments online will solve the 8am scramble for appointments. How will it? We've lost 2,000 GP surgeries since 2010. The problem is not enough appts and this doesn't increase the number available, it just adds another way to book.

There’s an important (anonymous) survey going around in Wales about the safety of physician assistants and ideas on how to “rehabilitate” PAs. If you’re going to participate, share your responses in comments. forms.office.com/e/4Qszp0tbaE

The young woman died because a NURSE (? ANP) decided she didn’t need admission and sent her home with antibiotics for an “infected insect bite.” This is why Wes wants to modernise the NHS and allow nurses to take over with no doctor oversight.

Wake up babe, latest horrors have dropped. I’m sure this has nothing to do with the 400% increase in IMGs since 2016. Unemployed, British trained doctors, on @wesstreeting’s watch.

Clearly there is a nursing requirement for patients in plastic surgery. Mobility, hygiene, wound healing, graft viability, dressings (type/size/application etc!!), patient education, and patient advocacy all of which become increasingly important with increasing patient…

Consultant Nurse Kate wants to leave the NHS because she lacks a registrar to supervise today: they’re busy with the trauma list at the main hospital! Tough day, Kate? 🙄



always a justification of equivalence using the "different perspective" tripe

We see the RCEM tier document being defended by EM consultants as a document which simply states level of supervision needed and doesn’t equate doctors to ACPs. Yet here we see the exact opposite, validating the very concerns doctors have.

Thanks to @drvk_voice for sharing this. I thought ACPs were a complementary workforce who didn’t work on medical rotas and had their own rotas? Yet over a quarter were rota’d alongside medical doctors. @RCEMpresident @RCollEM

If plumbers are worth £90 an hour, and corporate lawyers are billed at £1000 an hour, surely resident doctors deserve £22? Tell me I'm wrong.
