"Impossible to get appointment or basic tests done"

About: Datchet Health Centre

I have been patient for 2 years. GP appointments are so oversubscribed it is impossible to get them even though I check on app/by phone right after new ones get released.

They have blood test service but only let 'old' people use it. Rest of us are sent to hospital which is totally unnecessary as there is least one health centre who can do this, at half the distance in Upton.

Likewise one cannot get swab or any other basic test completed here.

I believe root cause for congestion may be that there is no other gp further east Wraysbury area.
