General practitioners with special clinical interests: a cross-sectional survey
Abstract
A survey was conducted to identify general practitioners with special clinical interests (GPSCIs) and to obtain views about their role. Approximately, 16% of GPs in the United Kingdom (n = 4000) provide specialist clinical services outside their core general practice commitments. This pool of expertise has important implications for the implementation of the NHS Plan and for workforce planning within primary care trusts.
