It took several attempts to get through on the telephone and when I did and I explained I had experienced heart palpitations for several days and wanted it checking I was told the only available appointment was 20th May!!!! Really disappointing, the only way I could get seen sooner would be to try again and 8am in the morning and again join the 'rat race' for the few if any appointments that may be available. I don't feel ill and wouldn't want to waste time going to the hospital for someone who may need to be seen more than me, but having to wait 11 days to see a doctor with a possible heart problem is really really poor.
