  "abstract": "General practice consultations are getting more complicated.1 In the 40 plus years since I qualified, medicine has changed considerably. Many patients who previously would have died, now survive—those with, for example, some cancers or ischaemic heart disease. In many cases, they live productive lives for another 15 years or more before ultimately dying with dementia. Undoubtedly this has increased the complexity of cases I see, in addition to the fact that the “simple” attendances for patients requesting the contraceptive pill or those with an upper respiratory tract infection are now seen by clinical colleagues.",
