Petition Your GP cares
More details
An increased demand on general practice caused by demographic changes, more complex health needs, and some care moving out of hospitals is all contributing to unsustainable pressures on the service. These inter-related factors are having a worrying impact on how care is delivered to patients. GPs are fire-fighting to provide services their patients need.
GPs care about the current situation and support the British Medical Association's call for all politicians to understand the urgent need for long term, sustainable investment in GP services. This will help to attract, retain and expand the number of GPs; expand the number of practice staff; and improve the premises that GP services are provided from.
Please show your support.
