@Keir_Starmer I think my invite got lost in the post.

[Fiona Gee @FpartridgeGee]

@Keir_Starmer My patients say thank you to me. I contact @wesstreeting , @SKinnock and @DHSCgovuk and I don’t even get a response (except auto reply from department of health saying if I am to get a reply it could take 20 working days). An open invitation for you to visit my surgery.

[Fiona Gee @FpartridgeGee]

@BigSpencer81 @TheBMA @wesstreeting @BMAResidents But without resident doctors now there will not be trained consultants and GPs in years to come.
All the resident doctors really want is a realistic opportunity to get onto the next training role. Sort the workforce planning out!

[Fiona Gee @FpartridgeGee]

@bananatransit @TheBMA @wesstreeting @BMAResidents Simple solution- Move student loan interest calculations to CPI, or use RPI when deciding on pay rises (for the whole of the public sector)

[Fiona Gee @FpartridgeGee]

@ejames500 @TheBMA @wesstreeting @BMAResidents In real terms resident doctors are underpaid compared to doctors 20-30 years ago. The same is true of many public sector workers.
However the bigger issue is poor workforce planning. Vacant jobs at the top, but not enough training posts to supply the need.

[Fiona Gee @FpartridgeGee]

@DHSCgovuk @wesstreeting Mmm, but you were referring to us in primary care the other week as “moaning Minnies”.
So don’t pretend today’s message is heartfelt!

[Fiona Gee @FpartridgeGee]

@Molly2323232323 @UKGastroDr @Parody_RCGP Not really, but it can often take longer to write back to the specialist to say I can’t do it, plus deal with the complaint from the patient. Depends what it is…. a blood test fine, tag it on to some routine monitoring we need…. I do say no to specialist investigations.

[Fiona Gee @FpartridgeGee]

@Molly2323232323 @UKGastroDr @Parody_RCGP No wonder the NHS is in a mess when we all spend time trying not to do the best for the patient because it’s “not my job”. The divide between primary & secondary care is detrimental to patient care. We should all be working together to do what is best.

[Fiona Gee @FpartridgeGee]

@wesstreeting So how about listening to what those keeping the NHS going through the strike have to say about training for the next generation of doctors, numbers of doctors, working conditions, workload, expectations….. you might learn something!

[Fiona Gee @FpartridgeGee]

@DHSCgovuk I look forward to additional support to deliver better care for my patients because right now provision for
Mental health support in our area is shocking….. but realistically do I expect anything will change for the better…. No!

[Fiona Gee @FpartridgeGee]

@KemiBadenoch I’m a doctor, a GP, I don’t believe strikes are the answer but I do agree with the resident doctor concerns about training…. Right now that is more of an issue than pay.
So I have to become a patient for you to stand up for me…..the way the NHS is going that won’t be long.
