NHS England NHS England Workforce, Training and Education Royal College of Physicians are absolutely clear “ #PhysicianAssociates “are not doctors and should not be used as a replacement for doctors”….
your statements could not be clearer especially following #RCPEGM

Better have a word with RCHT then

I have little else to add to this absolute sorry situation

Please - leadership of NHS England Workforce, Training and Education

What are you all doing.

So sad to see the disintegration of medical education being facilitated by a few

Adam Janjua One of my GP friends (not on Twitter) is looking for GPs to join the practice she is part of in Herefordshire- please share the advert below with anyone who might be interested

In case you are unaware. The shortage of GPs and other specialists is purposefully created.

A deliberate decision not to let doctors into the training programme.

A deliberate action to limit the number of trained doctors.

In this election year, it is a now-or-never…

Mick Lynch speaks more sense in 90 seconds on the topic of immigration, than this government has in 14 years.

Professor Stephen Powis Professor Stephen Powis Prof Powis I wonder if you could answer a question that Prof Colin R Melville hasn’t yet responded to please?
