"Treated humanly "

Having moved from the West Midlands 3 years ago where I was registered with an excellent Gp surgery, I was apprehensive of having to register with a new Gp in Portsmouth. I used to work for the Nhs for years as a admin staff and the pressure is huge. As a patient as well and having been on both sides of the service, I personally think the Island Practice is doing well. I don’t take it personally when they look busy because they truly are and considering the level of stress they have to deal with on a daily basis, I understand they can have bad days and sound a bit moody at times. They are as patients, human beings not robots. The Nhs is changing, it’s not only Portsmouth, it’s everywhere in the Uk. I have heard about places where they don’t have GP at all or the service is very bad. Portsmouth are very decent and again personally a big thank you to all the staff for having me.
