I was bitten by a tick and felt ill. I 'phoned the surgery and asked for a doctor to call me back. I was called back by a doctor within a couple of hours and invited to visit the surgery that day. After examination and a discussion, the doctor offered treatment for Lyme disease. I was given the antibiotics straight away and started taking them that day. Within days I started to feel better and by the end of the course of tablets I felt completely better and have felt really well since.
This is, according to the web, a difficult condition to diagnose so I was impressed by the swiftness and confidence with which the doctor came to a decision. I also like the way I was included in the decision to take antibiotics. All in all I had a very good experience with Witheridge Medical Practice and can thoroughly recommend them.
