Reception is a barrier to get through to a doctor, I appreciate they are following orders, but when you are worried being told that no one is available and to find 111 doesn’t help, although I must admit the people at 111 are very helpful.

Suggested improvements
Make it easier to see a Doctor or nurse

This service was excellent but other services here are very difficult to obtain! I have never seen my supposed GP in all the years that I have been under him! I had to rely on a trainee to get an appointment with consultant! I have had to go to the hospital to get help recently!

Suggested improvements
Today I would say that you could not have done anything better!
