On 7 February Dr Michelle Drage, our CEO, took part in Women in Healthcare Leadership’s 100 Word Project. On 29 January Dr Elliott Singer, our Medical Director for North East London, was quoted in a Pulse article on challenges around making referrals from GP hubs. On 23 January Michelle was quoted in a GPonline article covering the results of our survey of GPs' views on the proposed PCN DES service specifications. 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. |
