"Treatment and Report findings."

I find this practice lacking in care for the community.

I am a carer for my wife and have found it impossible to get an appointment to see a doctor, only being offered the sit and wait clinic, as it is painful for the wife to sit around in the wheelchair this is not an alternative.

We needed an appointment to talk about a recent review about the wife's pain management, as we were referred back to the practice from the pain management team at Louth.

We recently returned to the pain management team to find out there reported to the practice back in February as to 3 alternative medicines that the doctor may want to try. We have not been contacted as to these options. We have tried to make appointment to talk about these options, but only been offered the sit and wait clinic.

The wife has also been referred for a DXA Scan back on 11th June 2018, at which point we were advised to leave it 2 weeks and then ask the GP practice for the report.

We phoned the practice on the 27th June to be told the report and just been received and the doctor will look at the report and will be in touch in 2 days, if we do not hear anything to get in touch again after a week.

The wife phoned the practice today 10th July to be told no doctor had looked at the report yet and to not phone again. What is the point of having tests and reports sent to the practice if nobody is going to look at them.
