"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

But, you know, we can't say it's better.

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

And it's just, there's people that this is beneficial to that have a conflict of interest and they're speaking on this.

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

I do not.

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

I just think we should have

Liveline

excellent care for everyone and continuity of care for everyone.

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

And the way we do that is to fund the public service property, which is what Chauntly Care is trying to do.

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

I don't think that's fair.

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

I think the public care is of a very good standard.

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

And it's just scaremongering to say it's not.

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

I don't know if the model is that different.

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

I don't think that's in the public system in any way.

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

So I don't know that you need that, that you need to see the same person each time.

Liveline

Hello, hi.

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

My view is, and I'm not consultant bashing, the consultants are working in the Rotunda Hospital.

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

They get a very good salary.

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

If you look at the more modern private hospitals we have, we have Blackrock Clinic, we have the Hermitage, we have the clinic down in Galway, and the sports injury clinic.

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

They were all set up by consultants.

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

the consultants themselves invested their money and built up the hospitals and have them as a private concern.

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

Why can't the obstetricians do the very same thing?

Liveline
"It reduces a deeply personal healthcare decision to a caricature"

That would be my point.
