Early night tonight. I wonder why I’m so exhausted? Thank you all you wonderful people. Your support has been amazing.

Thank you so much.

Numbers under regulator/disciplinary issues fallen from 40% to 3% over 15 years we believe due to improved access to NHS Practitioner Health -> significant cost saving to #nhs when factor in costs of Ix’s , dual costs of salary & locum if Dr is suspended, legal costs etc

I’m sorry NHS Practitioner Health are not responding to every email / tweet or communication. We are busy preparing information for various stakeholders to use over the next few days.

I feel very emotional as does NHS Practitioner Health team for all the wonderful support we have received since Friday. I promise - it is helping. Thank you so much, especially those who have publicly declared they were our patients.

figures speak for themselves ⁦NHS Practitioner Health⁩

Headlines for year end 2023 ⁦NHS Practitioner Health⁩ 22/24 figures still being collated but you get the drift. We are seeing more per month now than at peak of covid

practitionerhealth.nhs.uk/news/changes-t… we are really disappointing that NHS Practitioner Health can no longer accept any new secondary care patients to its service. Please see ph website.

Graph showing consultants vs GPs 1950-2020. Prediction will be even more consultants per head of population vs GPs by 2040. This has to be reversed if we are to deal with needs of future population

This is why it’s so difficult to see a GP

The Cass review is so helpful. There are going to be many no-go areas in health care and we need to learn from errors she has identified.

NAO report number of fully qualified GPs will rise by only 4% between 2021 and 2036 compared to a 49% rise in the number of consultants. #nhs will fall over if we don’t increase number of GPs as our patients need generalists given the changes in health care needs.

How can you live well, laugh, pleasure yourself sensibly, save the NHS and raise money for charity?

I told Dr Phil Hammond 💙 my favourite (& only joke) which I suggested I use in our double act. He wasn’t impressed.
But here goes.
