Rushed appointments don't address patient concerns
My mother's GP practice. The clinicians appear not to review patient records and seem unable to dedicate sufficient time to hearing what patients have to say. We were repeatedly informed that advance bookings were unavailable, and when attending for an urgent appointment, we were advised that only a single concern could be addressed. This represents a disappointing approach to care. The procedures in place appear to work against patients who have genuine healthcare requirements. The service does not provide comprehensive, whole-person care.
The telephone lines are extremely difficult to get through on. The practice might as well be unreachable given how inaccessible it feels to patients trying to make contact.
