A whopping 39 percent GPs are thinking of leaving the profession in the coming 5 years , if something isn't done soon, we may be 22000 GPs short which could very well be a fatal blow to the NHS . The current GP workforce crisis seems to be a product of increasing workload , reduced staffing and increasing complexity of cases due to an ageing population. The need for action by the government is now and the consequences of inaction are going to be dire for the NHS. It is time for some bold and radical action by the government .....(and it's not just about the pay).
