Requested an appointment for my child's severe psoriasis after pharmacist said she needed treatment asap. requested a face to face so head could be seen. Got a phone call many days later after calling 3 times to find out why I hadn't received a call. Was prescribed something without her being seen. It went on raw open wounds causing burns. Rushed to urgent care who couldn't see her after 4.5 hours. So came home. Took another 2 weeks to get an appointment face to face. Appointments kept being made without my input and they were all at times when we were away. If I was allowed to speak to bookings I would be able to tell them instantly if appointment was suitable. each time I was given an appointment I had to return a message to say I couldn't do it, and another 2 days later another inappropriate appointment was made. Went in to surgery to book one and again couldn't do it as the request was sent elsewhere. Finally saw a GP, medication was far too strong, caused massive burns to childs head. Couldn't make an appointment on the phone for same day appointment and when I finally managed to try on the website, all appointments for the day were taken. My child is in pain. Urgent care is overrun, wait of 4+ hours to then be turned away with a skin complaint and told to see GP. Cannot see a GP! Unacceptable service for a child in pain for this many weeks

Allow me to make an appointment face to face at a time appropriate to my child and me and not when someone thinks I should be able to attend.
