A monumental decision by the government to abolish #NHSE NHS England in an attempt to reduce bureaucracy & waste in the NHS. A commendable 👍🏽 ambition but the devil will be in the detail of how funding will reach the frontline & how responsibility functions will be devolved 🤞🏽❤️

General practice handles >300M appointments/year, keeping the UK healthy & productive. Yet it receives just ~5.6% of the NHS budget, despite its impact on GDP through ⬇️ sick days & hospital demand. 📈 Investment in core GPs is investment in the economy Wes Streeting General Practice


As a GP I know that black men in the UK face double the risk of prostate cancer but are less likely to be diagnosed early. Prostate Cancer UK is tackling this with mobile clinics, targeted campaigns, & screening trials to close the gap ✊🏽#ProstateCancer #HealthEquity Prostate Cancer UK


GPs are stretched to breaking point 🥹expected to deliver top care with minimal resources in a crumbling system 💣 Media blame & political neglect are eroding trust. Patients & GPs must unite to raise awareness and rebuild the vital bond we once shared ✊🏽 General Practice Parody RCGP - Not a Doctor or PA


🚫 GPs no longer need to perform a rectal exam (DRE) 👆 for prostate cancer if PSA is raised — it's outdated & adds little value. PSA → referral (MRI) is now the preferred path. DRE may still be used if PSA is normal but suspicion remains. #ProstateCancer Prostate Cancer UK Royal College of General Practitioners
