    Stupid Doctors and their Stupid Receptionists

    martin and me want me to give up smoking.

    im still getting JSA and consequently get free perscriptions so i figured now might be the time to do it....ive been thinking abuot it for a while and today decided to phone and make an appointment.

    i cant!

    appointments can only be made on the day and have to be made either by telephone by 9am or in person at the surgery for 8.30am.

    you cant make an appointment for the next day, only that one. and if their arent any, you just have to pop back the next day and see if you can get one.

    to me this sounds fucking stupid! what if i had a job?

    id have to tell my boss i was gonna be in late cos i need to make an appointment at the doctors, then go back into work and leave again 2 hrs later for the appointment!

    do all doctors operate like this now or is my surgery just retarded?

    :evil: :evil: :evil: grr!!!:evil: :evil: :evil:

    im just gonna smoke and kill myself and martin will have to pay for my private health care.

    some daft amount of GP appointments were being missed daily - they're trying to cut down waiting times/costs. atleast you know you'll get an appointment within 2 days, rather than 4 weeks.

    saying that, GP's get paid huge amounts and do chuff all ANd claim shed loads from the goverment. i've worked with them. they're all snotty arrogant sods too. not ALL of them, just most :D

    you have got more chance of winning the lottery than getting a doc's appointment anywhere near the time u want it.

    i gave up the last time and just went to the walkin NHS place at the general hospital... walked in spoke to the receptionist woman, waited for 5 mins and then was straight in :up:

    See, I know what one of them is, but I'd never know what one sounded like. This is why I can't wait to get to Medical School, and can't really be arsed with 2 years of boring A Level crap first!
