The Health Secretary wants an app called "GP at hand" rolled-out across England - but GPs in London say the makers are cherry-picking easy to treat patients.
The Health Secretary Matt Hancock has been criticised for saying an app for GPs appointments should be rolled out across England - even though the NHS is still safety testing it.
The App called GP at Hand allows patients to choose a convenient time for a phone or video consultation with a GP. So far, It's been trialled in London and 32 thousand people have moved to it's online GPs surgery .
But critics say it cherry-picks young tech-savvy patients who are easy to treat, and it can't help diagnose diseases like Meningitis.
