If anyone believes they can keep a lid on the use of GLP-1 analogue medicines for weight loss in the #NHS? They just need to see the signs all around People are choosing to avoid the “standard” means The #NHS would be better off trying to ensure safety measures are in place

Of all the NHS cuts being forced by this government’s draconian spending targets, those to palliative care are especially horrifying. At exactly the time MPs debate assisted dying, we face removing care from dying people. How can you bear to oversee this, Wes Streeting?

You want proof of GP replacement?! Here it is, in a nutshell. Absolutely diabolical - GP unemployment is BY DESIGN! We’re heading to a future we where we will have GP practices WITHOUT ACTUAL GPs! 🚩 🚩🚩

Beyond the basic fundamentals of socioeconomic changes needed along with lifestyle? The question for NHS commissioners is this RE #Obesity Fund a medication (most likely for years if not life) OR A one off (most likely) surgical procedure with its pros & cons And if no

The British Association of Urologists call out GPs for using outdated assessments for prostate. Checks notes....we are following their guidance which they admit to not having updated since 2016. Taylor said it best....
