Appointment was for a flu jab - contacted by the surgery.
The booster clinics are efficient and speedy. Thanks!
Prefer to enquire at the surgery, but realise this isn't always available.
Great staff especially pharmacy . Still would be good to have continuity . Also night having to phone by 8 in a morning that’s an absolute pain !! Sometimes long phone wait has can be over 10 people waiting . Though receptionist work well and always pleasant .
Difficult to get any appointments the staff taking the call ask questions and then decide themselves whether you need an appointment. When I tried in in July I was told it would be 3 weeks before an appointment was free so a friend took me to Westmorland General who immediately sent me bey ambulance to Lancaster. They found I had a blood clot on my head and and I was admitted for a week . I am still taking medication as I have lost a lot of memory and and find it difficult to find my words when talking
