Making a doctors' appointment

mp500

I finally plucked up the courage to register with an NHS GP surgery a few months ago. It went nice and easily; just a simple form and questionnaire. That's the first time I've had an NHS GP since 2017.

I finally plucked up the courage to book an appointment the other day. So I went to my local surgery... and it was unexpectedly closed. So I went into town where the main surgery is. They have a 'triage' system where they take some basic details then get someone to telephone you to book the actual appointment.

Of course no one ever bothered calling.

  • I found the other surgery I was going to go to last week. I was spoken to very rudely and threw away the form they gave me in disgust. The amount of arrogance among NHS staff never ceases to amaze. I don't talk to anyone in a typical week so to end up making a special journey just to argue with an officious arrogant brat is very upsetting.

    I'll fill in the form last week's surgery gave me and post it back to them and see if they accept it or not.
