Terrible healthcare leaving patients desperate and suffering
I'm completely abandoned at every turn. Suffering from bowel bleeding, I requested a faecal test kit only to be told an appointment was necessary - yet no appointment was offered. Attempting to book online revealed zero available slots. Additionally, I've run out of hospital medication (another complicated story) - 111 advised requesting an emergency prescription from my GP until tomorrow's availability, but they flatly refused. Now I'm without critical medication they claim isn't their responsibility, citing lack of knowledge. I'm experiencing multiple physical and mental health challenges. They've dismissed serious infections, claiming no appointments are available - fortunately my husband brought me in, and the doctors themselves warned me not to delay again. Attempting to schedule another appointment after another infection, I received a dismissive message about no availability. (Apparently infections aren't significant, even when you're corpse-like, pale as paper, burning with fever.) Rest assured, the receptionist apparently knows your health better than you do. I desperately hope no patients suffer consequences from this negligent system. Here I sit, experiencing medication withdrawal, approaching a mental breakdown, wearing feminine hygiene products due to uncontrollable leakage - all because of a surgery completely disinterested in patient care. I apologize if this disturbs anyone, but it's time to expose their practices. I hope others will find courage to speak out. Meaningful change is urgently needed.
Typical medical practice with standard challenges. The waiting area tends to get quite crowded, and it's common to see just a single staff member handling multiple patients despite long lines...

Getting through to Oakwood surgery feels like attempting to reach the Vatican - they seem impossibly unreachable. It's hard to believe they're genuinely so swamped that they can't pick up the phone...

Overwhelming anxiety coupled with an incredibly poorly designed mobile application that lacks any semblance of intuitive navigation. Complete disappointment with the entire user experience.

Attempting to reach customer service via telephone is an utterly futile endeavor.

Upgraded the phone system, yet scheduling an appointment remains a challenge. How is it possible to call at 8:30 in the morning and find no one available to help? The waiting line is unbearable, and..
