Working in the NHS I see first hand the pressure staff are under, particularly at A&E and find it very frustrating when people attend unnecessarily but can see why as it is near impossible to get an appointment at this surgery. I have given up now and I'm moving to a different surgery. There are some good GP's there, you just cant get to see them. Even just getting a repeat prescription has left me feeling upset and frustrated. They have 'lost' it 3 times and having been on hold for 25 minutes I finally spoke to a receptionist who informed me my prescription still wasn't ready to be collected even though I was assured it would be ready yesterday. I am glad I rang to save a wasted journey.
