"Trouble getting in at GP and sent to A&E"

About: Hawthorn Medical Practice Pilgrim Hospital / Accident and emergency

(as the patient),

After trying for 6 weeks to speak to my GP I managed to get  call back from a nurse. Explained I had suffered severe chest pains 6 weeks previously so the nurse told me I was to go straight to A& E for an ECG.    

From the male nurse with all the  tattoos who took my blood pressure, the lady nurse who took my bloods, the porter who took me to the XRay dept and the young doctor all were fantastic, but I do feel my own GP should have dealt with this and not sent me off to A& E.
