Manage episode 418440812 series 2098280
Hundreds of appointments and surgeries have been cancelled as junior doctors begin another strike.
They’re continuing to fight for better pay and work conditions.
More than 2000 doctors walked off the job at 7am for the second time in two weeks, the strike planned to last two days.
Sarah Dalton, Executive Director of the Association of Salaried Medical Specialists, told Roman Travers that we’re already training many young doctors just to go off and work overseas as the work conditions and pay aren’t good enough for the senior medical workforce.
Now, she said, Te Whatu Ora seems to be doing everything they can to get them to go even sooner.
