I’m an oncologist and I love my job. But I’m striking because I know first-hand that the NHS is failing our patients with cancer and I’m striking because I know first-hand that the NHS is failing its workforce. lucygossage.com/my-reasons-for… #ConsultantsStrike
The Consultants of Dorset hospital have written a letter to Steve Barclay
They strike tomorrow

I worked through my cancer treatment as I wanted to minimise the impact of my treatment on that of my patients. I am committed to them, my job and the nhs.
I will be striking with my consultant colleagues for all the same reasons.

We look forward to speaking with him next week.

Why on earth would we need an independent DDRB to keep pay up to date? Unless pay and conditions improve in the NHS this is clearly only going one way OME PayReviewBodies Department of Health and Social Care Steve Barclay
