Campaigning for Better Healthcare

Doctor

As a Consultant Paediatrician in the NHS, I am passionate that our health services and social care deliver for our local community. This includes working on better access to NHS Dentistry in our area, and my campaign for a dental training facility in Lincolnshire to improve recruitment and retention of NHS dentists.

Discussing NHS IVF Treatment

At the moment, IVF treatment on the NHS is being denied to women locally if their partner has a child from a previous relationship as this is the policy of our local CCG. Nowhere else is healthcare restricted to someone with a medical condition on the basis of somebody else’s past history.

Providing Local Vaccine Update

Nationally our vaccine programme continues to progress extremely well with over 9.6 million people having received a vaccine by yesterday evening. Every single older residents care home has been visited to offer vaccinations to residents and staff.

Supporting the NHS Funding Bill

As a Doctor, I am proud to be part of a Government that is bringing in the NHS Funding Bill, ensuring an increase in funding for our NHS by £33.9bn a year, with more hospitals and more nurses.
