"Not a good practice"

About: William Harvey Surgery

I had a call from the GP relating to a question I had about being Asthmatic and being on vunerable list for the vaccine (covid). Was told I wasn't on the list, I then questioned this and said I though I should be as I take inhalers Salbutamol and Beclometasone. The GP said it wasn't up to them it was down to the government, and anyway not all asthmatics are on the list which surprised me as far as I knew asthmatics were on the list as per the government listing. On their web page it states people with lung disease are vunerable need to take care and shield, I made a few phone calls and was told I was correct it is down to the GP as they make the decision. There is no way I will be on the list as my GP will not put me on it, I'm 64 years old so my age is another factor and I have discovered that asthmatic is not on my records with them. I've asked for this to be added to my records but don't know if it's been done. I would not recommend them to anybody as they are not efficient, careless and erratic and GP does not know the right procedure for the vaccine. My advise is to go somewhere else.
