What the petition asks
Why can't Gp's get back to normal this isn't progress we've gone back 73 yrs , this isn't providing medical treatment for all it's just providing for people who can use or have access to the Internet and it's wrong, let's get back to human contact where it's needed ........ AT YOUR GP SURGERY!!
I know from talking to family, friends and work colleagues that I’m not the only person that feels this way sign this petition, get your friends family, work colleagues on board email, text, WhatsApp, facebook let them know about this and let's get "everyone " well again!
