Physician Associates , and the BMA and MRCGP responses. While I was truly pleased to see reasonably simple, clear guidelines on the use of PAs from the RCGP and the BMA, I fear these have come too late. The horse has long since bolted and may be very hard to catch.
A large number of the GPs who have lost their jobs to PAs, as a result of the government's in equitable funding, will be women. Locum and salaried posts fit in well with child care. Something to think about on women's day.
Congratulations to the doctors who brought the PA experiment to light, exposing the inappropriate use of PAswhich has increased risk to patients. Also exposing how government subsidies for PAs have resulted in the firing of salaried GPS and a dearth of locum jobs.
Annonaceae Consumption Worsens Disease Severity and Cognitive Deficits in Degenerative Parkinsonism Laurent Cleret de Langavant MD, PhD, Emmanuel Roze MD, PhD, Aimée Petit MD, Benoit Tressières MSc, Amin Gharbi-Meliani PharmD, MPH, Hugo Chaumont MD doi.org/10.1002/mds.29…
Annonaceae (custard apple, soursop, sweetsop) cause atypical Parkinsons & worsen degenerative Parkinson’s Disease. Annonacin IV in rats destroys the basal ganglia, which atrophy in PD. These fruits, and any soursop leaf tea, worsen cognition and increasing dementia risk in PD
Annonaceae and Parkinson’s and dementia We know these fruits enter the brain, soursop leaf tea is said in Jamaican bush medicine to be good for the nerves. We had no idea it was this dangerous. If rats are given soursop leaf extract iv it destroys their basal ganglia.
Soursop leaf tea, soursop juice, custard apple & sweetsop cause atypical Parkinsons and worsen degenerative Parkinson’s Disease. 7 fruits a year for 10 years, or drinking any soursop leaf tea was associated in the study below with a decline in cognition
I've never seen this document on NHS reform from the Institute of Economic Affairs before, but it's chilled me to the bones. This is what they want: for medical care to be completely at the mercy of profiteers, not public health - as evil & deadly a proposition as I can imagine

@Ask_foradoctor The consultant was right. I have had PAs ask to be “reminded” on how to take history frm difft specialties, each time I refused and asked for pt to be booked with a Dr. How can a consultant provide advice/ guidance based on an assmt frm an individual without defined competency
@huntertotheworl @MarySloper2 I was so sad when my soursop tree died . In hindsight that may have been divine intervention. My sweet sop tree is now leafing up for a new crop but the birds usually get them before me . Grandma would say that we should not be sorry over disappointment.

This is totally, totally nuts. Either you need standards and exams and years of training or you don’t. We are going backwards . UK primary care used to be ‘jewel in the crown’ of NHS. Now, esp with appalling %uplift in England, is designing it to fail. Utterly preventable tragedy
The most vulnerable and complex patients to the untrained, unqualified ‘professional’. And worryingly that’s also the GP practice where I’m registered.
