Hi Kath.....I used to be a doctor's receptionist and we always used to get bad press and there were and probably still are a lot of horrible ones out there, but I think I was always a caring receptionist and there are plenty who are. Glad you got a good one today and now you know which one is nice you could always go back to her again. Might be worth finding out her name in case you ever need help from her on the phone. If you know your job there's no reason why a receptionist can't get a script done in 5 minutes! Glad you got your painkillers in the end!

Glad you got them too Kath.

And I have to say Nicki, I've honestly never had a miserable receptionist wherever I've lived in the country, they've always been really great. :) I've been lucky maybe.

well done for sticking up for your self how great someone put them self out for you x

I am sure there are nice receptionists and like everyone they must get cross patients all the time as they feel ill .. but mine are sorry to say unhelpful at best but glad you got help..

(dyslexic hugs lol )

aw i done that few months ago wen to script and a new docor had done it as mine was on holiday looked down no coc codamol and note saying not happy to prescribe this lady co codamol with butrans as havent see n her in a while ?? well no you havent sen me as i am not your patient and my GP has been giving me this script for months arghhhh saw lady at reception she could not do anything luckily i had enough to tide me over for a week and my GP was back 2 days later

went home called again made appointment for 2 days toime with my doctor saw hr explained to her what happened ! she just looked at me smiled didnt say anything but her face said it all wrote me out a script for 200 co codanol and reinstated them on my repeat as the other doctor not only didnt let me have them but ook them off my screen !!! my doctoer was not happy but she sorted it which was good
