"Appointment and physio "

About: Audlem Medical Practice

I had tried to get appointments to see about severe back pain to be told I had to wait two weeks to only see a physio. Then without even taking my coat off the physio printed off exercises to test a back ache he hadn't examined. Then as its got a lot worse since I was Then told by a receptionist that it wasn't urgent and booked an appointment two weeks later. I was in agony so went to a qualified osteopath yesterday to be told I had acute misaligned sacrum he manipulatedamd it is feeling a bit better as I have follow up appointments. I also have pain every day in my left hand which was told is probably age, I'm 45 and fairly fit. I get very nervous about going the doctors and feel sick at the thought of telling a receptionist with no medical knowledge to diagnose me over the phone or in public in reception ams made out that I am wasting your time all the time. I would not want to ring in if, I thought it was non urgent.
