Health & Fitness:Medicine
In this episode, we feature a discussion with Dr. Bob Lunan, a GP from Marnock Medical Group in Kilmarnock, Ayrshire. Bob shares his journey in managing a growing patient population, expanding from 12,500 to over 18,000 patients. He discusses the challenges and successes of integrating new practices, especially during the pandemic.
Bob provides insights into the implementation and evolution of the digital triage system AskMyGP. He explains how his practice adapted the system to manage patient demand effectively, balancing online and face-to-face consultations. Bob also highlights their approach to chronic disease management, emphasizing the importance of both online and in-person reviews to ensure comprehensive care.
We cover the changing landscape of general practice, discussing how online consultations have shifted patient expectations and also the importance of maintaining hands-on training for new doctors. We consider the move to Vision from EMIS in Ayrshire, the anticipated challenges and some of the proactive steps practices can take to prepare.
