Dr Robert Laurenson claims he is ‘constantly worrying’ about how to pay his bills but is a director of his family’s investment firm and owns a £500,000 flat with no mortgage.
The junior doctors’ leader sparked controversy by swanning off to a friend’s wedding during the first junior doctors’ strike – while urging union members to sacrifice pay and take to the picket lines.
The GP trainee works at Dartford and Gravesham NHS Trust, having taken a year out after his degree to work as a freelance doctor for ‘money and wellbeing’, according to his LinkedIn page.
Dr Laurenson is listed alongside his parents and brothers as a director at Westholme Investments Limited.
The business holds over £2million of investments and previously ran a Surrey golf course described as ‘one of the finest’ in the county.
Dr Laurenson was made a director in 2013, a year after he began his medical degree at Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry.
