North Somerset Members

Dr Tanya Beer

I’m a GP at Tyntesfield Medical Group by day, but also work for GP Out of Hours, usually following the weekend demands of being both a football and rugby parent.  Working in a variety of settings helps to keep me in touch with issues affecting jobbing GPs and enables me to fulfil my role on the Agenda Committee for the UK LMC Conference.  Conference is where we debate and vote on motions which become BMA policy, forming their mandate when negotiating our contracts with Government, which goes hand in hand with our work at Avon LMC in trying to make things better for both GPs and our patients.”
