I can't always get an appointment to SEE a doctor and have to start at 8am if I want to HEAR a doctor. I.e I can't make an appointment in advance.

Suggested improvements
Change the appointment system. I received GREAT CARE but I had to make the appointment far in advance and was not able to specify a doctor.

Thank you for your feedback, I'm pleased that you found your appointment easy to book. We can offer a private space for feeding, however we reflect that this is not particularly well signed in practice and are reviewing it. Thank you for taking the time to highlight this to us.
