Went in this morning to book an appointment as i had ran out of Inhalour (my mistake picked up the last box and i had used it) asked if i could see someone urgently as my breathing was tight.
Was told i was not allowed an appointment until 12pm. i has the practice manager and 2 admin staff all speaking to me like i was nothing and said it wasn't there problem. they said i was being rude i wasn't i was frustrated that no one could help me or even get me an inhalour. i stated if i left and had an asthma attack they what. they practice managed stated it was not there problem and that emergency services would deal with it. Would 100 % not recommend this surgery if you have a long term health problem that can trigger at any point.
I am absolutely gobsmacked of how i was treated this morning. i even asked if she could nip in and ask a doctor to do me a prescription so i could at least get some relief she stated she couldn't do this. All three members of staff was being very obstructive and unhelpful when i was clearly struggling to breath. the lady stood there smile looked me in the eyes and stated it was not there problem.
"Refused emergency appointment."
