The Royal College of Physicians has issued a statement in response to the junior doctor and consultatnts strike action taking place this week.
Dr Sarah Clarke, president of the Royal College of Physicians, said:
“The decision to strike is a difficult one – no doctor will be taking this action lightly. But doctors feel undervalued, overworked and under-resourced to deliver the care they want to provide.
“We must see an end to this dispute, and we urge the Government to take the lead to end the impact on patient care.”
