That's right None,Zero, Bupkiss.The whole staff of the surgery comprised two nurses-and four receptionists.So I had to make an appointment for three hours later at the Health Centre,Got there 20 minutes early,Ended up waiting 45..Just for the Doctor to say that looks an infection and Gave Me some more antibiotics and some serious painkillers,You can't take the painkillers with booze so.Suffice to say I haven't taken any...
I hear in some places in the UK it takes a month to see a GP , here in Scotland its 1 week
this is a worrying story buried by most of the media
