Long phone queues made booking difficult

Called early in the morning and found myself quite far back in the queue to speak with someone. When I tried again shortly afterwards, the available slots had already been filled. The earliest appointment offered was approximately two weeks in the future, and it was only to be conducted by telephone. I'm concerned about how the appointment system is currently operating. I feel that in-person consultations should be more readily available rather than relying so heavily on telephone appointments. The current service level is disappointing, and I believe patients deserve better access to care.

Thank you for your comments. As you will appreciate the phone lines are extremely busy at 8 am however we do have a number of staff answering them each morning, therefore I would recommend in future that you stay in the queue. We are back to are offering a mixture of face to face and phone calls throughout the day and also deal with urgent cases if a patient has an issue that cant wait to be seen. We offer routine phone calls up to 5 weeks in advance for patients that want advice but aren't in immediate need. I note that you had an appointment on the same day that you called however please contact the Operational Manager of you wish to discuss this further.
