At the heart of general practice since 1960
Practices will receive virtually no help to prepare for what could be an exceptionally harsh Christmas, finds Carolyn Wickware
'When you hear hoofbeats, think of horses not zebras' - the old adage is well-known to GPs but what should you do when faced with a zebra, not a horse? Consultant cardiologist Professor Robert Tulloh and GP Dr Louise Tulloh kick off our new series with their advice on how to catch Kawasaki disease in general practice.
GPC deputy chair Dr Richard Vautrey tells Pulse that GPs voting in favour of mass resignation at today’s LMCs Conference represents the ‘anger from the profession’ and 'a desire to see concerted action from NHS England to address the crisis facing general practice’

they will argue that they are already taking action as outlined in the Five Year Forward view and more money than ever will be in the pipeline with extra GPs and staff. they will also say they have been listening hence the future increase in funding. they will make out that GPs are like spoilt children who can't wait for xmas day. sadly the xmas presents will be empty boxes and we will have to make do with the wrapping paper and cardboard. they are basically trying to kick the issue into the long term and hope enough of us wait - they will then disappoint us as per usual around the 2020 election and state that 'change' is again required.
