Hundreds of appointments at the Salisbury Trust were rescheduled as a result of the junior doctor strike last week, new figures show.

Across England, nearly 200,000 hospital appointments and procedures had to be rescheduled due to a 96-hour strike from April 11 to 15 in a dispute over pay.

NHS national medical director Professor Sir Stephen Powis said the figures "lay bare the colossal impact of industrial action on planned care in the NHS".

NHS England figures show 566 appointments at Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust were rescheduled as a result of the strikes – of them, 22 were inpatient procedures, while 544 were outpatient.

A spokesperson for the NHS Salisbury Trust said: “We are sorry for any changes to scheduled treatment that resulted from disruption caused by recent industrial action.

“The whole hospital team have worked together to provide safe and compassionate care during periods of industrial action, and we are grateful for the hard work of colleagues and the support and patience from our community.”
