Pulse is a print magazine and online resource covering healthcare and general practice in the UK, by GPs and for GPs. Pulse Blog is hosted on the website and covers medical and political news that would be of interest to working GPs and other healthcare workers. Please note Pulse requires a free web membership to view their blogs. Bloggers frequently change and are normally guest Bloggers or Pulse's experts rather than fixed members of the editorial team. All are experienced and working GPs and therefore have the knowledge and expertise to provide comment. Blog posts take the form of comment on political and medical news or issues. Most posts range from 300 to 600 words. PR opportunities lie within expert comment in the form of guest blogging or interviews, or relevant news or research. The blog can be reached via email or through the magazine's Clincial News Editor, Nigel Praities.
