I had an emergency appointment at the Medical Practice this morning for 11am. When I turned up they told me I would be waiting well over an hour!!!!
Everytime, and I mean everytime, I have a Doctor's appointment at the practice I wait for at least 40 minutes. I am 35 but I have seen old people who can barely walk or breathe sitting on hard chairs who have been waiting for nearly an hour.
Once I asked the receptionist to check the Doctor was still alive as I had been waiting so long.
How can a GP surgery have such delays so consistently? Something is very wrong with the infrastructure at that surgery.
My next door neighbour has accepted it as the way things are and is always waiting for nearly an hour. Has anyone else had this problem? Definitely something to take up with the Local Health Authority.
