Shameful. Dentists should hang their heads in shame!

So many dentists now only take on private patients, with current NHS patients often having to travel hundreds of miles to get treatment on the NHS, if they can get it at all, yet we read millions of pounds are unspent.

Is this in a bid to privitise the entire service that only the rich can afford?

I repeat: dentists should hang their heads in shame!

Dentists return £900m after failing to see NHS patients

@NorthantsGreens Why is Labour on the wrong side of the Public on this?

Oh yeah, the money....

This is awful. Giving more money to the owners of private healthcare, when it should be invested in the public system 😡 The easier stuff gets contracted out and the public hospital deals with all the complications and trickier surgery. This is not good for the training of specialists either.
