[QUOTE="toquark, post: 8179592, member: 72428"] Yeah fair enough if you could actually get a GP appointment. My wife was quoted a 10 day wait for an appointment to deal with a persistent chesty cough last winter. Presumably the GPs in our local practice were hoping she'd either go to A&E or die before they'd have to come and see her face to face for the appointment. As it was she went to A&E as she was having trouble breathing, the triage doctor there told us that the majority of her patients that day could and should have been seen by a GP before making their way to hospital but that they had no other choice but to come and gum up the hospital. The system is a shambles but government and media can't bring themselves to criticise it so soon after declaring all NHS staff heroes on a par with the soldiers on D-Day or whatever. Its a total joke. [/QUOTE]
