NO...if you have a foot problem then go and see the doctor, that's what our national insurance is paid for.

what next? ...when we are having an heart attack we have to show our private insurance policy before we get seen as in the united states of America?

remember these doctors and specialist have been trained with OUR money, graduated into a fabulously paid job at OUR expense, and now these specialist don't want to treat us because they can earn more money treating people who have gone private so they can jump their turn in the waiting list.

ALL doctors and specialist must work exclusively in the NHS for at least 25 years until their debts are paid back to the people who have invested so much of their hard earned taxes, and then and only then should these self interested professionals be allowed to do a very limited private work.
