GPs in England have launched a work-to-rule action in a dispute with the government over funding.
Surgeries are taking a variety of steps and some are limiting the number of patients each GP can see to 25 per day .
But there's increasing concern it could put patients at risk.
Satisfaction with GPs has hit an all-time low and satisfaction with the NHS has hit all time low.
The independent status of GP surgeries means staff working for them are not directly employed by the NHS .
The BMA deemed that was not enough and called a ballot of members before the election was called.
The new government has already said it will put more money in, with Health Secretary Wes Streeting urging GPs to call off their work-to-rule.
