Despite pain and discomfort, there's unwavering support for junior doctors among many regular patients.
Despite the pain she's experiencing, Rebecca fully supports the striking doctors.
The British Medical Association, the union representing the doctors, claims junior doctors in England have seen a 26% real-terms pay cut since 2008/09 because pay rises have been below inflation. He says he'll keep supporting the doctors even if it means he's in pain for longer and they choose to keep striking.
"I remember a junior doctor who was fresh on the wards who saved my life one time and because of that I can't do anything other than support them now. "The staff are leaving in huge amounts and I've seen the waiting lists go up in six years of treatment. Patients are suffering and dying due to underfunding and being short-staffed.
