Current polling shows 86% of 1400 doctors would reject @wesstreeting's offer: reddit.com/r/doctorsUK/s/eb6…

*fairly* accurate poll on Reddit.
Congrats @MedReddit, do we have an unofficial litmus test?

This is all well-known, written about by excellent people from @david_colquhoun to @DrJenGunter and @dr_andrealove - so why did the @guardian run such a piece without modicum of fact-checking? Certainly UK doctors on reddit pretty annoyed about it too..

🔔UPDATE: More worrying evidence emerging of unsafe use of Physician Associates by @UHP_NHS. Doctors at the trust have been instructed to create a "prescribing rota" to determine who will prescribe and request scans for PAs.

🚨NEW: Our investigation into the unsafe use of Physician Associates at @UHP_NHS 👇
The trust uses a PA to carry out paediatric ENT surgical procedures. When asked for their scope of practice & governance policies, the Trust refused, bizarrely citing "Health and Safety"

I'm sorry your grandmothers passed away, but can you still cover your shift.
NHS managers are beyond parody at this point.

Very glad to hear @wesstreeting is sympathetic to our concerns about career progression
However; sympathy won’t resolve placeholders or bottlenecks - it meaningless to those facing unemployment.
What we need is action!

I have written up my thoughts on "Physician Associate graduates have comparable knowledge to medical graduates" here on reddit (where I can do things like edit):

Here’s the full Reddit post regarding @Derriford_Hosp PAs.
This is happening in departments across the U.K.
@parthaskar does prof Leng know about this ?

Even the GMC themselves can’t separate PAs from “registered medical professionals” but apparently the general public can?
Explain yourselves @gmcuk.

One of the trending posts on MedReddit is in praise of Filipino nurses
Interesting for a bunch of racist nurse hating incels...

Actual proportion of IMGs in training. Competition ratios do not reflect actual people who get a training spot after being competent.

Well worth a read, @gmcuk communications with government prior to HoL PA debate, including identifying any 'supportive peers'.
r/DoctorsUK retweeted
Now would be a perfect time to demonstrate collusion and lobbying attempts between the @RCPhysicians and @DHSCgovuk - thanks to u/sildenafil_prn (@MedReddit).
First off - Dr Sarah Clarke emails Chris Witty (to which he does not reply).

Some refreshing news coming out of East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust. (H/T @MedReddit)
It is not for JDs to pick up the slack (alongside all their other responsibilities) to teach PAs. This would be inappropriate anyway as doctors have not studied the medical model.
