My husband has had three phone calls today.from drs surgery.First was a nurse who said it was a general revue.She said a phone question one or a visit to surgery.Phone one was fine for him,Just an appointment for blood test thats not been done, with medication he is on.Appointment to have them .One hour later Dr rang asked same questions,but changed the appointmet to February for other test which were due then,Half hour later at 6-30 a nurse rang to say his appointment was delayed while February.Strange not heard from them over a year. Are they smartening themselves up, has Boris Told them stopping their money.Hope so.Good luck to every one else . Rose x. PS I cant see that lock that makes it private.

A bit like buses Rose, you wait for ages then three come along at once. Let’s hope GP’s will now be willing to actually see people. Pete and I have done well seeing our GP recently. Fingers crossed for all. The lock is right at the bottom when you post. Take care. Carole xxx💜❤️

Hello Rose,

Did you say he will wait for a February appointment? I'm not sure but it seems like in the current circumstances that is good news? I really hope more people start to see doctors again. I really don't believe they can carry on the way it is going. Hoping today finds you both doing okay. Love to you . xx ❤️

Funnily enough l have just hadca similar experience. Had 3 calls in one day to offer appointments hospital visits and tests that were cancelled 18mths ago. Final suprise was appointment for consultant which was cancelled 2years ago. I will be attending but fear that 2 years of negligence can not be put right especially with lungs. Does make you wonder why now ?
