I ❤️ NHS xx Contacted the GP surgery with a online message on Monday morning 08:30 informing them I cannot get any toenail cuttings xx they text me back stating they had forwarded my message to [name removed] [name removed] xx at 15:45 I received a call saying [name removed] [name removed] has referred me to [name removed] and there’s an appointment tomorrow (15th) 08:45 so I went along @ 08:35 xx
The appointment was to give a blood sample arranged by the surgery, so no receptionist involvement and I didn't arrange the appointment.
I could only book an appointment in advance for three weeks time. If I wanted one sooner I had to phone in the morning and it was still tricky to get an appointment. The receptionist worked hard to squeeze me in.
Made to feel welcome and really put my mind at ease when talking to the gp.
All very quick and efficient. Good advice given and empathetic doctor
