Not provided with an interpreter

"Not provided with an interpreter"

About: General practices in Lanarkshire

(as a friend),

Every time I go for my appointment I am not provided with an interpreter which is frustrating as I don't understand & have lots of concerns I can not address

Dear arbie3

I was sorry to hear about your experience at your GP surgery and the lack of interpreting support for your appointments, it is important that we support you to access this service.

I would be grateful if you would contact me to give me more details, and I can look into this further. My email is hina.sheikh@lanarkshire.scot.nhs.uk

Kind regards
