AS resident doctors prepare for another walkout, readers responded with a hurry on emotional – and polarized – polarized Latest NHS payment dispute.
Some people expressed sympathy for doctors, arguing that the salary should have been synerg with inflation since 2008. He warned that failing to restore salaries will give fuel to burnouts, loans and emigration, further weakening an NHS on employees and resources.
Others pointed to fierce hours and training, given that doctors deserve better salary and respect. Many people also criticized Health Secretary Wes Streeting For “reconstruction” on promises.
But not all were assistants. Some readers described 29 percent salary demand and out of touch, especially after 22 percent uplift last year.
Many appointments and poor patients were disappointed with a long wait for the results, asking whether the increase in salary would improve services.
What did you say here:
I have very little sympathy for NHS staff
To be honest, in the last 15 years, I have seen a significant change in the approach of GPS and doctors towards my patients. Often, my GP seems indifferent to my health care needs, and I think when I need my injection for a specific situation, I pass myself to pass from the column. My GP blames the hospital, while the hospital does not indicate the finger back in GP surgery.
I have also seen a marked change in the attitude of those who handle phone calls. When I need to see my GP, I am often asked to book a telephone appointment or only 5 to 10 minutes to discuss my concerns. Often, my issues are not actually addressed; It seems that I am doing a chat with my next door neighbor instead of receiving proper medical attention.
I am more disappointed that the hospital and GP surgery I join are often very less busy than 15 years ago. Nevertheless, they still offer appointments after at least four weeks. It’s ridiculous! If the government is playing games in the last 15 years, I believe that NHS employees, including surgery, had a part in it. Therefore, I have very little sympathy for NHS employees who demand an increase in salary that exceeds the average rates of Britain.
Currently, NHS feels that it is doing a great work, but often it does not happen. Doctors from countries like Spain, Portugal, Turkey, Mexico, China, Thailand and Vietnam are often well trained and are ready to do less work, without compromising health services for patients. Meanwhile, our new trained doctors often desire to move to countries such as Australia, USA and Canada, which sometimes gives an impression that they are stuck in their jobs in the UK here.

Everyone needs to join with doctors
Everyone else needs to join with doctors, stand with them and fight against low wage crisis that the people of the United Kingdom are expected to accept as a re -evaluation for the work they do.
Doctors are leading the path – people need to go on board or move out of the way.

Pay and inflation
Everyone is eligible for their salary with inflation since 2008. All include doctors and other NHS employees.

Results are not standard
It would not be quite bad if NHS had half the result of a patient, which was good as most of our comparable European neighbors.
NHS is believed to have been reduced compared to many Western European countries, but should Boris not have correct everything with their red bus?

Now they want more?
In 2024, junior doctors increased an average salary of 22 percent in two years, translating an annual growth between £ 9,000 and £ 16,000. Now they want 29 percent at its top. Who do they think they are? The nation has finished resources and they cannot withdraw money to provide better facilities and medicines for patients in their pockets.

Public will not forgive streetting
No, on the road, the public will not forgive you.
Doctors were promised to restore salaries. You have worked on it again.
The English NHS has lesser doctors, nurses and beds per capita compared to the health services of comparable nations including Scotland – an important factor in determining health results and waiting list.
Not paying adequately to doctors is not going to improve that situation. And if they are not paid adequately, they will never pay the huge students loans they have earned – or they can leave the country, leave the public purse to take the entire tab and also to lose their inconsistent investment.

Does it mean to be GP now?
Does it mean to have any meaning of being GP, given their salary limit? Clever people are paid for low training (expensive) and less work elsewhere. I missed any scheme for this issue under the 10 -year NHS scheme of streeting.

what a mess
What is wrong, due to the unfortunate fact, the more you pay to anyone, the valuable they think they are. This does not help NHS require doctors to do a five -year degree course and then to practice a few years, only to determine the drug if it is in a good list and has a blood test to justify it. It is no wonder that doctors have decided to pursue money instead of rewarding career.
Why has this disqualified government not extracted computer technology for diagnosis?
And did doctors get more interesting and free for demanding work?
What is wrong, and there is no minor sign of improvement.

My honor is thin
Not again. Therefore, junior doctors who are learning and required supervision demand 29 percent increment. What argument did he decide to train as doctors? Students must have done research on their potential earnings, but as soon as they qualify, they feel more in demand than other professional groups.
Since Kovid, a trained professional, to see a GP or specialist, rapid long wait, delay in probe, diagnosis and treatment means … How long is a piece of string?
Many doctors work only part -time these days. If you want more salary, work for a long time. Like the rest of us. My honor for these hard -working professional carers and therapies is very thin. They demand that we respect them – where is the honor for the needy people?

A huge change in doctors’ approach
There has been a major change in attitude between many doctors and reception staff (trained to obstacles to take care by GPS). Out-of-the-hour care is inferior. Many doctors do not care. And remember, doctors get their medical ability for peanuts-a four-year bachelor’s degree is required to become a doctor in America, followed by four years of medical training-this is a number of hundreds of thousands of dollars training that should be paid back. Perhaps junior doctors will feel better about their salary if it took them a minute to understand the cost of their training.

After the epidemic, they were entitled to a reward – but …
After the bad dreams of the epidemic, NHS health workers were entitled to a reward for their dedication under terrible circumstances. But doctors need to understand that they were given an unprecedented increase under Blair’s government, that they had a generous uplift last year, and that most other workers have not seen the real increase in their salary for many years. As someone is waiting for more than three years to diagnose dynamics problems, I will definitely not support doctors.
