Becky B   31 #49 Posted June 24, 2016 You don't get it do you. Once the 4 week back log is clear there will be no more waiting for 4weeks for appointment  So the demand will have fallen again after those 4 weeks, and from then on fewer people will need to see a GP?

alchresearch   215 #51 Posted June 24, 2016 How will they magically disappear?  Easy, with Farage's £350 million we don't have to give the EU, we can hire millions of doctors.  If we don't have time to train them up we could buy them from abroad.

Daven   10 #52 Posted June 24, 2016 The doctor work extra few hours a day until back log is gone. they are very well paid professional. they sign all the patients. shouldnt it be they duty to sort it out?  How will the backlog be gone though ?  ---------- Post added 24-06-2016 at 12:23 ----------  So the demand will have fallen again after those 4 weeks, and from then on fewer people will need to see a GP?  Read this ..................

phil752   10 #60 Posted June 28, 2016 Presumably if they can "forget" then they weren't actually ill enough to need to see a Dr in the first place. ---------- Post added 23-06-2016 at 08:41 ----------   An interesting assertion.  Are most people 'net' tax payers though?  How are the GPs not working efficiently? They get 7 minutes to see each patient, most surgeries are over subscribed with patients. You'd rather work overtime, do you imagine that all GPs are the same as you? Do they have no life outside work, no families, no social commitments? Are you expecting them to work overtime for an entire working life!  ---------- Post added 23-06-2016 at 08:41 ----------   How do imagine that GPs come into being and/or exit the career?  ---------- Post added 23-06-2016 at 08:42 ----------   If I assume that "brown person" means they are not from the EU, you do realise that we only allow them in if they have skills that we want? There are not millions of unskilled or low skilled immigrants from outside the EU.  ---------- Post added 23-06-2016 at 08:44 ----------   Okay... So all GPs have enforced overtime (not legal). For some extended length of time (probably years). Then they go back to normal working hours, and the problem immediately recurs.  The solution is to train more GPs. But to do that the profession has to be attractive to them, otherwise why bother, it takes 12 years to qualify, it's hard, very hard, there are easier routes to earn more and have a less stressful working life.  Part of the problem is that a lot of GPs are part time.  ---------- Post added 28-06-2016 at 01:55 ----------  On the flip side i had a letter, saying that i was to be stuck of my medical centers list because i had not been in for over 5 years. I guess i don't make money for them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
