If you read the medical media you could be forgiven for thinking that doctors in the UK are getting a pretty raw deal. Our pay has been frozen, pensions attacked, and so many GPs claim stress that many are contemplating early retirement.

ReplyDeleteThis makes grim reading Dr Z. I see this appeared also in the Irish Times recently.
ReplyDelete"Madam, – The arrest of more than 30 medical professionals from the Salmaniya Medical complex in Bahrain is deeply disturbing. Several of these doctors, including Dr Basim Dahif and Dr Ali-Alekri, trained and worked in Dublin hospitals. They face military trial and possible execution. I know these doctors. They care for people, not politics. A media, diplomatic and public outcry after their trial may be too little too late. – Yours, etc,
