Doctors appointment

For the last week I been feeling under the weather , sickness and out of breath , I phone my doctor surgery to get a appointment , earliest is five weeks ,

Re: Doctors appointment

Sharp intake of breath!

That is outrageous!!!! If you get worse, get someone to take you to Walk In Centre, or call 111 for advice.

Take care.

Walk into the doctors, and collapse on the floor. They wont be able to leave you there.

Re: Doctors appointment

Bit drastic, not to mention dramatic!

But may be worth a try...

Re: Doctors appointment

Last doctor's appointment I had was just to review my tablets.............1 day short of 6 weeks!

Re: Doctors appointment

Really ? last time I did that they called an ambulance but only other patients came over to help me, the staff ? apparently it was not their job and they couldn't get involved !

Re: Doctors appointment

Good idea, and make sure you land in a very inconvenient place too.

Re: Doctors appointment

All doctors have emergency appointments available. You sometimes have to phone that morning to get one the same day. You won't be able to name a doctor but you can get an appointment.

Re: Doctors appointment

With no reference to anyone here. The situation could easily be resolved by the hypochondriacs stopping taking much of the appointment times.

Re: Doctors appointment

If you can get through bang on 8.30am and persuade the receptionist that is true, sadly not enough appointments and a determined receptionist means only a few people can get them.
