@SamiMFouda @drkeithsiau Presumably you wouldn't advocate for freedom for sibling marriage?

@Jeanthebean8816 @Jenny_1884 GPs would be in favour of being paid per appointment! £30 per appointment would increase their funding by 50%!!

@Megsenmumdr @Dr__Sarmy My CS will ask for the dentist's details (often patient hasn't actually been) and then call them prior to seeing the patient to clarify

[Dom @_Doctor_Dom]

@wendybrownreid @SameenaAhmad7 @DrVoles Yes I do. If you're expected to work at more than one hospital or make home visits you need business car insurance.

[Dom @_Doctor_Dom]

@MikeTho04795078 @tomhfh @adb0wen No we don't. Number of locum shifts is low and the pay is the same as a decade ago

@ovoflips @cmwilliams99 @RCollEM If you chose to redefine the term and use it in a way that's not relevant to this thread, then yes.

[Dom @_Doctor_Dom]

@ovoflips @cmwilliams99 @RCollEM 'SDM' is a recognised and specific term. An SHO could not be an SDM by definition

@dru_jlh I'm not arguing you should strike, but voting to strike gives our union bargaining power

[Dom @_Doctor_Dom]

@dru_jlh Voting yes will not have any negative impact on you though...

@DrJoFranklin @fletchjack @Mohamedkhaled_Z @NHSE_WTE @NavinaEvans @BMAResidents Regardless, if their error has lost you other work they must have a financial obligation to make you whole

@augierakow @TehBananaMaster @dioscuri That's not a moral quality though. Not many would consider it an immoral act to consume orange juice and toothpaste.

In a medical school session for our entire year group today. Our faculty are encouraging students to look at careers outside of medicine because "when it comes to speciality training - there are simply no jobs".

What has UK medicine become?

“Lovely to see you today Dr, I can never get appt with a GP-will you be here permanently now?”

Me
“Apologies but there are no jobs going for experienced GPs”

Pts
“You’ve got to be kidding me, how can that be?!”

The absolute state of general practice rn.

@Terrible_TerriC @TJCoats Why though?

[Dom @_Doctor_Dom]

@TJCoats "Examination limited due to taking place on X corridor due to lack of space" is something I've been writing

When patients show up sicker, they stay longer. Without a family doctor they’re harder to discharge or they bounce back.

Inpatient units at capacity can’t accept patients from emerg.

You’re not waiting in the waiting room for 10 hours because someone showed up with a paper cut.

Poor young woman walked in with her mum to local UTC with classic plaque psoriasis on scalp, face, neck, elbow & thighs burning her skin.

Has been trying to see a doctor at her surgery for the last 3 months - passed from pillar to post - pharmacy 1st to seeing everyone but a GP!
