@GlamCricket oh dear adverts on the replays on the live steam. Letting the side down. If you need funding ask. I would happily give 10 - 20 a season to avoid adverts.
General practice is stretched to breaking point in Wales.
GPs are desperate for change.
🏴In the first of three features on the NHS in Wales ahead of the Senedd elections, @Seren_Boyd asks staff at a surgery in Merthyr Tydfil - where demand overwhelms capacity every day - how they are coping. [1/5]

@RoyLilley When my father became a GP back in the late 60's, he came from a hospital background of paediatrics and chest diseases. The other partners had worked in mental health or gynaecology and the practice they cross referred to each other. Skills sadly lost
The Surgery will be closed on Thursday 19/3/2026 from 1:00pm for GP / staff training. If you have an urgent medical problem please telephone the practice for information on the OOH cover
If your problem is not urgent, please call any time of the day. Test results, administrative tasks, and pre-booking appointments will be quicker and easier if you avoid calling at 8am. You can pre-book appointments up to 6 weeks ahead, so there’s no need to call at 8am.
It seems to me that GP practices insist on NHS app because that is policy. If u cant use an app then tough. They dont recognise the Equalities Act 2010 but they are going to learn they have to. Stop using apps. Demand your right to alternative methods of communicating.
@DrPeterWeeks1 People don't know who is their gp, but they know the practice staff.
As a practice manager I was amazed at the knowledge of the staff about our patients. The kgb could never match them.
