Rejected petition Doctors charging to see patients is unethical and immoral and goes against the principles in which the NHS was founded on.

More details

Doctors in parts of the UK are currently considering charging patients for appointments. Vulnerable members of our society must be protected and the NHS must remain free at the point of use. We must send a strong message to those who seek to turn the NHS into a proft making machine. Health is not a business.
