Mine does Mon, Weds and Fri, then Tues and Thurs the next week. Part-time, or is she? What other work is she doing for the NHS, who knows?

Of the five Drs in the surgery only two are available Monday to Friday and they seem to be the surgery partners. It's a business not an NHS service.

I'll tell you, Saundra. In our practice, at least two of the GPs are running a side-line offering medical health checks, laser and cosmetic treatments etc.
It's £120 for a 30 minute appointment and £200 for an hour. They're quite open about it.
Private medicine, don't you just love it? :(

The surgery seems to revolve around the clinicians these days, not the doctors. Wellbeing teams, so on.
