go oractice manager

had a bit of a barney with the practice manager at my gp. She claims I am rude because I object to being forced to put confidential medical data on a commercial web site in order to see a GP. 

She has written to me saying she is removing me from the Practice list.

  • I think there will be many people in the same boat as you, the obly thing I can suggest is writing to yhour health trust to complain, but as they're almost certainly pushing for this I doubt if you'll get any help. You could try other routes such as your MP, the national press, any other news media, such as Your BBC.

    There are some practices round here that are going almost totally app based, I wonder how they're getting on with that when so many of thier patients are elderly and don't know how to use apps, or don't have a smart phone or live in areas where there's no reception.

    I've had similar conversations with my GP's surgery, I take out my stupid phone and ask them how I do what they want on it and then gently explain to them that I don't have a smart phone, I don't know how to use one and can't afford one and that the last time I tried to use thier touch screen book in system it didn't log me in and I ended up sat there for ages and came up as a no show on the recpetionists computer.
