‘LAST SEEN BEFORE DEATH’:

I'm a Birmingham graduate. I don't wear a white coat. So, I'll be more inclined towards general practice and be perceived by my younger patients to be friendly but not very competent. This quarter has a rich crop of interesting papers that I'm sure the editor would not want me to comment on as I'm likely to fill the journal (that is right, isn't it John?). There are two papers about the ramifications of the Shipman enquiry, and also that clinicians outside the UK are looking at our new GMS2 contract with great interest.
