Project:london – treating the most vulnerable, on our own doorstep

Dr Paquita De Zulueta works as a Locum GP and has volunteered as a doctor with Project:London since September 2009. The clinic depends on the commitment of volunteers, including some sessional GPs. Dr De Zulueta talks about the clinic and why she encourages others to volunteer there too.

The clinic provides medical care to those having difficulty registering with a doctor. It was set up in 2006 and last year saw over 1000 service users with medical complaints not much different from the average general practice.
