"Please arrange chairs so people can sit by themselves"

About: Dr Stephenson & Partners

(as a service user),

In my GP’s waiting area there are chairs in blocks of three or four. Someone came and sat next to me and I had to get up, I can barely walk, there were seats but I didn’t feel comfortable sitting in between people, I prefer to sit by myself, anyway, the reason I had to move was because the person who came and sat next to me stank to high heaven, I felt sick, I had to go away and stand by myself, even though I can’t stand very long.  I don’t like smells. I don’t go out much because I am worried this might happen. How the doctors and nurses deal with these smells, I would love to know?  Please arrange the chairs so people can sit by themselves if they want.
