Not a particularly interesting story, but might be good to hear other's experiences
I have been registered with the same doctor for some 4 years, and despite a few visits to the surgery over those years I have never once met my doctor.

Every time I phone for an appointment it is because there is something wrong with me at the time, and every time I am told "Sorry, Dr Roberts doesn't have any appointments today, his next available one is two weeks on Friday"

Unfortunately this seems to be because he is the only competent GP at the surgery.

I always wonder how you know you'll be ill three weeks in advance
