We need these sorts of stats to drive better treatment - thanks for putting this together.

Thanks for setting up the survey.

There is an error in the question that asks to tick how he GP was unsupported/time waster/not ill enough etc - I had to tick one of these when none applied because my GP(s) have been outstanding and so none of the negative choices were applicable

Thus I couldn't answer the survey correctly - think it needs to be changed otherwise results will be incorrect

Thank you for highlighting this. That question has now been amended to include the option 'not applicable'. Hopefully you can now complete the survey. Many thanks.

Regarding surgeries where you see a variety of staff.

My daughter was seen by 3 different practitioners/GPs in her surgery so we can't complete the survey.

We have had mixed responses. Excellent from a GP and rude and dismissive by the Clinician Nurse.

For example the GP gave information and followed typical referral procedures to the ED clinic whereas the Clinician Nurse Simply asked her why she had returned for blood tests and asked did she even want to get better, wouldn't take the bloods.... etc. Daughter hasn't returned for any help since!

Sorry.

Terrible GP service. I was given a CBT leaflet and dismissed. Horrified.
