Great to hear that Nigel.
However a waiting list of 2-3 months is not very good but probably average.
We are sitting on a time bomb and the cuts being made behind the scenes are truly disgusting. What is so annoying is that obesity rates in children have started to drop - mainly because of the many projects that are being pioneered by dietitians. The general public just do not hear about them.
In Wales one LHB actually asked pts what they wanted and they asked for my more time with dietitians - and in fact that is what they got and the results have been excellent. People need support and they are not getting it!
DMUK are not helping either - their advice is flawed and their recipes use far too much sugar - they do not seem to listen as i think they have been contacted by other dietitians.
I started posting on here because as a HCP who is very passionate about the subject I was outraged at some of the truly awful things that I read about mine and other professions. I have been abused, stalked and mocked by some very nasty individuals but it will not stop me - 9 o clock I reckon ! ( other blog!)
