The NHS is 70 this year. It is often said that our National Health Service is the closest thing we have in the UK to a national religion; be that as it may, it is clearly treasured by the British public, and respected worldwide.The role of general practice in the NHS at the beginning was rocky to say the least, but over the years, our profession has flourished, due in no small part to the remarkable efforts of hard-working, visionary GPs over the decades.
It’s just banter. That’s how people justify denigration of one medical specialty by another, and that’s what the majority of medical students believe; all specialties go through it and all specialties do it; it’s character building; it’s just a bit of fun.1But one consequence is that medical students are being put off entering certain specialties because of the stigma attached to them.1This is dangerous.
