Abstract
- The article focuses on the British government's public health white paper. Reading the 207-page document, general practitioners (GPs) are only mentioned 23 times, mainly in supporting tables or case studies. In the chapter 'Making it Happen' they are not mentioned at all. But statistics reveal the government's deceit. Some 76 per cent of patients cite GPs as their main source of health information. Next highest is pharmacists at 26 per cent. GP and practice staff consultations total 1.2 million each day. day. The rest of the National Health Service accounts for one third of that.
