Some doctors have purchased their practices but very few practices are prepared to afford employing extra doctors because the funding they receive isn’t enough to cover salaries, (unless they are doing a side line in private care). They can however, employ unspecialized junior doctors as they only cost around £30,000 a year.

I work within this sector and my farther is a doctor so I have a fairly good idea of how things are being managed.
