Already over 6000 Neighbourhood Health Centres in England
GP Practices have lost 20% real terms funding since 2016, if they hadn’t they would be better able to provide the care patients need
Still 31m appts/month
Fund GP practices properly & they’ll do the rest with less funding & quicker

Splitting GP into prevention and illness, rather than acute & chronic (as in the Fuller report), could make much better use of resources and the ever expanding wider healthcare team. #GPSky #TeamGP

Have agreed to host a thanksgiving for American family. How is it different from a UK Christmas Dinner?

Here are a few of the UK doctors & medical experts I really trust on here - am sure I've missed many, but it's a start, & I'll keep adding to it. Feels like we've never had a greater need of trusted medical voices right now. Hope it's helpful.

Spent the last couple of days in and out of hospital as my child needed day case surgery and I needed a minor procedure urgently. Some observations from being a patient.
