They will break from the status quo. They will add to the care we already value. Staffed by GPs and nurses. And you won't need to call up for an appointment. That means more people can go after work - when it fits with their lives.
Hundreds of NHS hospital workers have voted for strike action after claims that they have lost more than 36m in pay and pension contributions over the last four years.

As part of the report, the panel contacted 325 women who had been treated by Mr Hay between 2015 and 2018, asking them to share their experiences. In addition to the 325 patients, 58 women had already been reviewed in an earlier assessment carried out in 2019. In Wednesday's report, the steering group panel identified two women as suffering "severe physical harm", with three sustaining "moderate physical harm" under Mr Hay's care.

Appearing at Truro Crown Court on Thursday, he pleaded guilty to two counts of fraud by false representation between 3 June and 26 June 2019.
Public opinion on whether resident doctors are fairly paid is sharply divided but nearly half of Independent readers agree with the government's stance that their current salaries are reasonable. In our poll, 49 per cent said the doctors' pay is fair given NHS budget pressures.

A former employee at the hospital told the BBC that internal data showed one third of Mr Lamah's patients had experienced a 'moderate harm event', where, for instance, a patient had to be transferred to another hospital or re-admitted, over a 12-month period.
