“When patients with multiple problems have to attend multiple clinics, life ismade more difficult by what's called the ‘treatment burden’. What's convenientfor professionals and services is often burdensome for patients. The irony isthat, while everyone is practicing patient centred medicine somehow thepatient isn’t at the centre”
Professor Graham Watt, 2016
