About Remedy UK PDF Print E-mail
RemedyUK was formed in November 2006. Its founders realised that rational concerns about implementation of the training reforms (MMC) were being ignored by those entrusted with implementing it.

Since then we have grown into an organisation supported by over 13,000 doctors and their families.

Who we are

A movement of doctors which challenges implementation of training reform and in employment strategy in the NHS. We have reclaimed strength in voice and in action which has been lacking the profession in recent years.

Who we aren't

We aren't an organization flatly opposed to change. We believe in the fluidity of an ever-evolving NHS responding to social and environmental circumstance. We do not believe in change imposed by political imperative on a highly capable and intelligent profession without adequate consultation and involvement.
