 The trust covers four Greater Manchester hospitals |
Doctors in Greater Manchester, who were balloted over whether they had confidence in their NHS managers, are to reveal the vote results on Tuesday. Consultants and senior doctors from the Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust were balloted last month.
Staff said they were not being consulted on major decisions.
The trust covers North Manchester General Hospital in Crumpsall, Bury's Fairfield Hospital, Rochdale Infirmary and the Royal Oldham Hospital.

The trust said it was disappointed that the vote went ahead and said every consultant and senior doctor had been sent a letter offering them the chance to meet managers to discuss their concerns.
Chief executive Chris Appleby said: "I've already written to all consultants and other senior doctors, offering to meet them at any time, any place to discuss their concerns in detail.
"That offer is an open one, irrespective of how the vote goes."
Staff are said to be angry about the proposed closure of the maternity unit at Fairfield Hospital.
