Locum doctors and one part-time gp

Updated for 2022. The impressive medical facility with multiple treatment rooms has merely 1 general practitioner listed as the lead partner, working only part-time. Patients will exclusively encounter locum doctors, with an inadequate target of just one per day, which is clearly insufficient. Throughout the previous year, all consultations were managed through push doctor. It has emerged that the single part-time GP is actually a full-time senior executive at push doctor, representing a deeply unethical conflict of interest when securing services. There's been a marginal improvement in that locum doctors are now present, unlike previously when no medical professionals were available, but comparable healthcare centers offer permanent GPs allowing patients to develop relationships and experience continuity of care. Chapelford will claim they are oversubscribed, though this is standard across all practices. Their funding should support more frontline medical professionals beyond a single daily locum. Patients would be wise to seek alternative healthcare providers.
