BMA GPC looking to identify GPs who work in prisons
Dr Alex Bunn is the BMA GPC representative for prison doctors and is keen to hear from any GPs who work in prisons. He says:
“There are about 700 of us working in UK prisons, and others working in immigration removal centres and police custody, but we only have 100 contacts of what is a hard to reach (or underserved) subgroup.”
Dr Bunn can be contacted by email: alexbunn@btinternet.com.
Full details of BMA GPC representatives can be found here.
