@SuziElizabeth11 Work normally performed by doctors, now taken over by other professions.

@MedRegoncall1 Let's be clear - you're talking about GPs partners. Salaried GPs have absolutely no say in who gets hired.

[Anna D @darkskies1]

"Bully the GP". Lovely prospect.

Do people really think GPs don't do what they demand because they don't want to?

[Hmmmph @scepticalists]

My health insurance costs £150 a month for the family and I get seen immediately.
Both wife and I each pay £300 a month in NI, our employers pay another £600 each on our behalf.

£1800 a month and I have bully the GP to even refer me, then wait 4 months for a scan.

@Megsenmumdr @simondoyle87 @LondonEMDoc @theRCN I know, right, GP posts in Ontario for loads of money...
Thing is tho, they never factor in the "what's keeping you in the UK is solid" type thing.

Oh well, never mind...

[Anna D @darkskies1]

@Megsenmumdr @simondoyle87 @LondonEMDoc @theRCN Yep, pretty accurate.

@Megsenmumdr @simondoyle87 @LondonEMDoc @theRCN LinkedIn is a back patting hell hole. Wondering if anyone is taking it seriously beyond job applications.

@doctor_katie @parthaskar @medicalmodelbri 🫂 same

[Anna D @darkskies1]

@doctor_katie @parthaskar @medicalmodelbri Neurotypical even.

[Anna D @darkskies1]

@doctor_katie @parthaskar @medicalmodelbri You might wanna see a neurodivergent trainee's MSFs. They will be coached into neurological behaviours or else.

@operationdanish Now I'll have to watch the darned thing 🙄

[Anna D @darkskies1]

@theipaper No you don't want working class doctors. Every one of those i know is struggling when there are no jobs, they're being replaced, they're being underpaid. All crap you've made massively worse/refused to improve. Speaking as one of those "working class" ones.

@Keir_Starmer Couldn't harness a piss with a funnel, never mind technology. That aside having inherited an "NHS on it's knees" and deciding to make it worse.

[Anna D @darkskies1]

@DrSdeG @1goodtern Double checking cks?

[Anna D @darkskies1]

@Carolin66137193 @TheSnoozeDoctor Because junior doctor is a demeaning term to fully qualified professionals with (mostly) years of experience..also, there's no other term between foundation and consultant to recognise those with said experience. Conveniently left out to avoid recognising merit with pay.

[Anna D @darkskies1]

@Smt66S @DishSmichri @LabourUK @NHSuk PS Salaried GP doctor's wages are shite but even so they can't strike because they're different from (but intrinsically tied to) partner GP docs who are still hellbent on preserving what's left of their independence, despite their own (quite harsh) paycuts in recent years.

[Anna D @darkskies1]

@Smt66S @DishSmichri @LabourUK @NHSuk If you don't get it that it's not the GPs striking, you don't get anything and it'll be very hard to help you get it. GPs are "doctor's" as a general term, but they're certainly not the only doctors on Earth's face, they are in fact the smallest number of doctors in the UK.

@mancunianmedic @CarolinejGoode Baking & cooking is chemistry. Precise science! Where did it all go wrong??

[Anna D @darkskies1]

@DrSteveTaylor @NHSEngland As a patient, I don't want to be operated on by a nurse. And I don't want to be nursed by a doctor. And the assistant is there for the scribing. Not for doing neither doctor stuff nor nurse stuff. I'll always be ("over") reliant on these people, each in it's place.

[Anna D @darkskies1]

@BlanshardC @AliJaneMoore Absolutely terrifying stuff.
