I had a really positive visit to the gynae clinic at Musgrove and the consultant and the HCA who looked after me were really friendly and reassuring. Thank you for your kind manner. :)
However, I was given a prescription by the consultant that they could not prescribe personally. So they hand-wrote a prescription form that I then needed to personally deliver to my GP's surgery, several miles away, for the GP to then write the prescription, and then for it to be processed.I did query this at the time but was told there was no other or electronic way of doing this.
This seems rather daft. I have not yet sorted this out because making a trip during working hours to deliver this to my GP surgery and explain to the receptionist is a bit of a pain. So the letter is still sitting in my handbag. Could this process not be done electronically in some way?
