What Phil White has said
“There are around 13 million GP appointments in Wales a year, but over the last few years, GPs have been asked to take on more work that used to be done by hospitals. The bottom line is that there aren't enough GPs – not because they aren't being recruited, but because the practices can't afford to take on another doctor within the budget they get from the NHS.”
