Dr Stephanie Ooi, a former NHS GP who now works for My Healthcare Clinic in London – a business offering patients “pay-as-you-go prices” and “membership plans” – expects the growth to continue to meet patient demand. “Also, working within the NHS as well can be really difficult and demanding. That’s not to say that private work is not demanding either, it’s just a different workload volume with 20-minute appointments allowing me to spend more time with fewer patients.”

That’s exactly what the Tories want. Break the NHS and then ‘save’ it with private companies.

All GPs are privately operated. Please stop talking nonsense
