Share with us your GP experience

Interesting that you say you are Manchester’s independent watchdog, but you don’t other than some ambiguous title, say who you are and who are the so-called volunteers from the community who are claiming to speak on our behalf.
For all we know it could be the local doctors or even worse the PCTs running this survey, to box tick under some government target for “consultation.”

Fist rule to engage people is to tell them in detail who you are (names please) who gave you the legitimacy to speak on or behalf, aims and objectives
and increasingly a web link to a site where this information can be found.

I also note with some concern that the survey relates only to GP and not peoples experiences of the PCTs, their efficiency or lack of it, accountability to the people who actually pay for their existence.

Or is that that you think the enforced punters shouldn’t be given a voice over these “august” bodies because they lack the knowledge or experience to express a view?
