Dr. Niamh Humphries:

What we can speak to is how it feels for the hospital doctors to whom we have spoken to work in overcrowded contexts and to work with patients that they know are just going to enter a long waiting list and that makes their jobs all the more difficult, every day. We cannot really speak to these issues generally but what we can say is all of these things make it very much more difficult to be a hospital doctor in the Irish hospital system.
