Operose Health: What I saw working undercover at a GP surgery

Seriously Maree ? You think the NHS is run well ?

Look at waiting times - over 6 million people on waiting lists, 14,000 malpractice law suits, ambulances that are queued up outside A&E for hours, people waiting up to 14 hours in A&E to be seen to ?

Look at the private sector in comparison.

This is nothing to do with the government spending on the NHS, it received more and more of our money, year on year and the services get worse, year on year.

If private healthcare was free like the NHS, which service would you prefer to use ?

I agree. In my experience, the medical and paramedical staff I have seen and been helped by are excellent.

The real problem is that the money they receive is wasted on bureaucracy. It has been published elsewhere that there are now more non-clinical staff than clinical staff. Not only do bureaucrats create more work for themselves, they create more staff to help them create more!

Its because of this the NHS is in such a mess.

As I said on another thread, that’s why I’m paying for my operation next month instead of waiting at least 12 months to have it done by the same surgeon on the NHS.
