if you are on HRT and worried about the dose, and whether it is safe, contact your GP or practice pharmacist. There are very clear guidelines on this. bbc.com/news/articles/…

It is a national scandal that we have a GP job crisis in this country, with 1000’s of GP’s unable to find work. Some GP’s have resorted to signing on for universal credit or working in Tesco, because there are simply no jobs for them. The public deserve better Wes Streeting

suspect likely to be either AI, or management consultants, rather than civil servants. Total waste of time and at what cost? seems like an expensive pr exercise to me.

Could someone at London Ambulance Service alter the question template so the caller handler asks for date of birth and sex of patient before asking if it is an obstetric emergency or if the patient is pregnant? Might save a bit of time for men, or post menopausal women.

General practices often get requests from patients for copies of test results and clinical letters. If you are a patient, instead of doing this, sign up for the NHS app. You can then view your medical records. It's more convenient for you and saves time for your general practice.

if your symptoms aren’t controlled with an antihistamine tablet, don’t take extra. instead add in a steroid nasal spray and anthistamine eye drops- available from chemists.

My surgery, like many, is not being allowed to prescribe #mounjaro directly to patients. Instead we have to refer them to the weight loss clinic, for which there is already a very long waiting list.
