“A lot of damage has been done to the NHS.

“People were very down on doctors and nurses and not being seen. Then we had the pandemic where everyone was suddenly incredibly grateful for doctors, nurses and other health care professionals. Clapping them in the streets.

“But that has turned again to people hating GPs and saying they can’t get an appointment.

“Can’t people see what the link is between that and the damage that has been done to the NHS? How the health service just cannot cope. That doctors and nurses are just trying to do their best.”
