Sarah Dyke

Liberal Democrat — Glastonbury and Somerton

Speaking in the House of Commons on 21 January 2025

Debate

Welfare of Doctors

Contribution

The hon. Gentleman is making a powerful speech. Langport surgery, in my constituency, is in the all too common position of struggling to attract and retain staff because of stretched budgets that limit its ability to offer attractive terms and conditions to those working in these challenging roles. Does he agree that the recruitment and retention crisis—particularly facing rural GPs—is negatively impacting doctors’ welfare, and that urgent steps must be taken to address that?
