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.
I personally would prefer to remain a salaried GP.
That's because I think there is more likely to be continuity of care with patients, better development of understanding with partners and still a remote chance of a partnership within the practice if a vacancy arose.
I'd also have thought that if I worked for a private firm, I would be more likely to do odd hours and receive less income.
