On 17 January Dr Michelle Drage, our Chief Executive, spoke to the NHS Networks podcast. On 16 January, Michelle was quoted in a GPonline article on the decision to call a Special Conference of English LMCs to debate the PCN DES. On 9 January Michelle was quoted in a BMJ article covering how the number of contractual sanctions being issued to GP practices are on the rise. We continue to be very active in promoting the interests of London GPs and practice staff on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn. If you have an example of general practice doing something well which could make a news story please get in touch. We also support practices that are approached with media requests. You can find details here. |
