Good General Practice is RELATIONAL. The GP knows the patient and cares enough to become educated on her rare condition. The Govt conceives GP as being transactional. Care can be delivered by anyone. Don't even need to be a doctor. We will be sorry when high quality GP goes.

New law: Every time you say physicians just push pills and don't care about their patient's health, you have to do 8 hours of state-mandated shadowing of a family physician.
It's Autism Awareness Month, so let's bust a pretty common myth about autism. "Everyone's a little autistic." No hate if you've ever said this. But if you have, I hope you'll stick around for this. 🙂

I looked at this and confirmed this is the main problem with the NHS plan By removing the skilled clinicians at the beginning of the pathway it has massively raised the cost and time of the whole journey A GP would have managed this without all this time wasted and imaging -…

There’s a chorus of disagreement with every single proposal — by Doctors and Patients alike, and you’re still ploughing on? Total clown show: it would be funny if not deadly. The entire report is a lesson in gaslighting, ignorance, and hubris. 🪦The final chapter of The GMC?

The Irish Medical Council (GMC equivalent in Ireland) are taking a stand! They state: “As the independent body which regulates doctors in Ireland, they are NOT the appropriate regulator for physician associates” The 4 reasons they give below: 🧵

This is, in effect, deregulation in all but name. The whole point of regulation is that it *is* protectionist! If the @gmcuk doesn’t resolve this, the market will. Those with enough income/wealth will choose to see a doctor privately. And those without it won’t.

Doctors deserve to know the GMC's position on Royal College scope of practice proposals for PAs. Following a refusal to disclose its submissions, we have written to the @gmcuk calling for full transparency.
Setting scope is not a punishment As a GP my scope of practice is limited to what I’ve been trained & examined in & thus deemed competent & safe to do… ie. diagnosing & managing undifferentiated patients My scope of practice means I am NOT & will NEVER be allowed to: -…
@RobLaurensonD4P @gmcuk @gmcuk has devolved into an organization that enables unethical medical practices across the country, operating with alarming impunity. Its leadership behaves as though untouchable. This transformation has turned a once-respected institution into a vehicle for exploitation.
@DrLiesel @Mark_Butler_MP @RACGPPresident They will eventually figure out that GP referral system SAVES patients and the health system money. GPs manage/coordinate most chronic disease and acute health issues in the community. Continuity important. Timely referral to most appropriate specialists saves cost also.
How much more evidence do we need that the GMC has been corrupted and needs to be replaced? “pressuring” the government to allow PAs to prescribe. Secretly discussing fast tracking PAs to become doctors. This is meant to be the medical regulator! What the fuck is going on?

Day 50 of asking. @gmcuk pretended they sough public opinion on their imminent regulation of physician associates - proactively seeking it through this public survey. Now they are refusing to release the findings until after regulation is a fait accompli. It stinks.

Dear 🇬🇧 #medtwitter 🏄 vs ⛷️ 🇦🇺 just made it *alot* easier for 🇬🇧 CCT doctors to work in Australia using a fast-track pathway Specific focus on GP, anaesthetics, O&G, & Psychiatry - other specialties, watch this space ahpra.gov.au/News/2024-10-1… Similar work happening in 🇨🇦…
Dear @gmcuk, If someone is performing the same medical work that requires qualifications like MBBS and MRCP, is it considered bullying to call them a quack, or is it legitimate for them to practice this way? Please clarify.
Yet we have 1500 PAs in primary care growing to 6000 in 8 years Yet patients can’t see their GP And non GPs are far less productive and effective Go figure
