Sam Everington

He has held the role of chair of NHS Tower Hamlets Clinical Commissioning Group since its creation in April 2013.

[3] Dr Everington practices at a GP partnership which is part of the Bromley by Bow Centre, an innovative community organisation with more than 100 projects under its roof supporting wider determinants of health.

[6] In 1989, he became, and continues to be, a council member of the British Medical Association, holding the role of deputy chair from 2004 to 2007.

In 1993, research into racial discrimination in recruitment of medical professionals led Everington and Prof. Aneez Esmail to be arrested and charged with making fraudulent job applications.

In 1994 both, Everington and Professor Esmail, received an award from the Campaign for Freedom of Information for this work.

[13] He says, that "while clinical commissioning is rightly well supported, the huge re-organisation under the Health and Social Care Act was unnecessary".
