GPs are Local
The Local elections need to be focused on Local issues
31million people consult GP practices every month, half the population

Having trained in excess of 60 GPs - I understand the complexity & risk involved in treating patients in primary care
I know how hard it is to learn & that’s why I have come to considered conclusion that seeing undiagnosed/undifferentiated patients is not safe without training

This is a plea to
@rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social to fund core General Practice
The average GP practice has lost the equivalent of 2 GPs, a nurse & admin in funding over the last 8 years (20% cuts)
It’s good there are negotiations but patients want & need to see GPs
Funding needed! #TeamGP

The #NHS is vital for us all, except the extremely wealthy
There is a need to protect services
It’s our responsibility to ensure they’re available for everyone
Don’t let misinformation get in the way
The healthy & wealthy are most likely to be ignoring the facts & making cuts

If we are to rescue the #NHS , we need to start with rescuing #GeneralPractice first.
Vast majority of patients contacts and #patientcare starts and ends in #TeamGP .
No solution to the troubles of the NHS can be found without supporting it.

Uncertain future of GP Partnerships in England
It’s a manufactured crisis, created by undermining, underfunding & increasing workload
There would be be no crisis if the value of GPs was understood by those in power at NHSE & DHSC @rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social

GP practices closing, redundancies, unemployed GPs & cuts in patient access
@rthonwesstreeting.bsky.social
This is not a time to release information in the ‘usual way’.
That’s the reason GPs are where they are, 20% cuts in £/patient funding & uncertainty over the future won’t help.

So much work done by GP practices is unseen
The media focus purely on appointments - 30 million a month & up 5 million since 2019
Imagine if appts are up 20% what is going on behind the scenes
All this with 20% £/patient since 2016 in real terms cuts

The new GP contract stipulation of the use of Advice & Guidance pre-referral is null and void
Add to any referral ‘In accordance with Jess’s Rule & Patient choice#TeamGPGP

GPs are struggling
There are many great GPs who despite their best efforts are not able to afford to continue
20% cuts on £/patient funding in real terms since 2016 has been a decision of Government & NHS England
If you can’t see a GP you know who to blame

‼️Posting again for the uninformed‼️
The mainstream media, NHS leaders & Government have failed to support GPs
35m appts a month, 5m MORE than 2019
The combined TOTAL use of A&E/Ambulances/111 is LESS than the INCREASE in appts provided
GPs are doing this with less funding

Whether the Government or GMC regulates Physician Associates or not it seems GP practices have heeded the warnings
PA numbers have started to fall in both GP practices, peak of 916 now 891, Primary Care Networks with a peak of 1153 & now 1089
Less than 2000 & a fall of 89

#TeamGP OOH today.
Patient who I saw as a child with their parent, now with children of their own, wanting to see me because they have great memories of care provided.
The concept of family doctor is a powerful one for patients. This continuity of care is better for us in General Practice too.

Well this feels like the beginning of the end for your local GP practice 🤦🏻♀️ #teamGP #generalpractice
This is absolutely ridiculous. Hundreds of GP practices have closed across the UK in recent years. Millions of patients are waiting longer than 4 weeks to see their GP. Why won’t Wes Streeting support GPs? 🚨🚨🚨
