Morning
35 tries until I finally got through to the doctor. Takes the piss,

It's a real lottery,
I just ring up and get an appointment, longest I've had to wait is like a day or 2.

We have to call at 8am to make an appointment
Of course, everyone calls then, so by the time you get through, the appointments are usually all gone

Sounds like a poor people problem, no matter when I ring there is an appointment usually the same day.

It's quieter where I live now
But even in deepest darkest Pompey I never struggled to get a same day appointment. I mean, I can't say that I always saw a decent doctor, but that's a separate issue

when I moved to Bethnal Green I went to the surgery up the road to register
they told me not to, as it was taking a month to see a GP

My doctor got a load of new patients a few years ago
When the surgery in the village hired a doctor who had been sent from the dwp. People with chronic and even life-threatening illnesses were suddenly being declared fit for work

Which is as it should be.

Too many patients, too few doctors.
Plus, sefton pct are fucking shit

Do you not have online patient access to book appointments? I thought everywhere had that now

(Nicki Minaj, Fri 12 Feb 2021, 8:41, archived)

Yes, but it doesn't work

( Smash Monkey 2 Cannot actually train spiders, Fri 12 Feb 2021, 8:49, archived)

In what way does it not work? Can you log in ?

(Nicki Minaj, Fri 12 Feb 2021, 9:07, archived)

Not usually
And when you can, it says there are no appointments. They won't take appointments for any other day unless it's to see the nurse, if you try to book, they just tell you to call at 8

Sounds like the practice isn't using it properly.

(Nicki Minaj, Fri 12 Feb 2021, 9:27, archived)

Definitely not
The 2 decent receptionists left when the old doctor retired and the ones they've got there now are less than useless

some scallies have nicked it and sold it for scrap
