Doctor's shocking claims over Blackburn and Burnley hospitals (From Lancashire Telegraph)

I think that says it all dave, no wonder the bean counters were annoyed at the medic, because they've been shown up for what they are, maybe these people who lay down the rules don't bother with the NHS but all have private health care. I've had the same consultant for 22 years but on the last two occasions I've been admitted onto a ward I've been under a consultant I didn't know, even though my consultant had patients on the same ward, but the suites know best, its not their lives they're playing with it ours
