Leading teaching hospitals offer consultant benefits including access to resources, opportunity to sub-specialise, interesting tertiary cases, calibre of peer workers etc. Great consultants will always want to work within KHP.

Nonetheless, consultants within KHP are generally frustrated by weak leadership and management, poor data and IT, dysfunctional support services and an organisation which is slow and monolithic to respond.

Consultants want this merger, but are concerned that the process will be a huge distraction for management, and will result in an organisation which is even less responsive.
