John Milne

Liberal Democrat — Horsham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 January 2025

Debate

Welfare of Doctors

Contribution

Last week I met with a GP in my constituency, and she described very much what the hon. Gentleman is talking about: at the end of the day, after blitzing through 25 patients, back to back, she sometimes found herself sitting in her car, simply too tired to drive home for half an hour. Does he agree that we are expecting too much of our medical staff in relying on their dedication to go beyond the call of duty?
