Exactly. That's why the GPs are complaining.
If I ring my GP, I get a nurse practitioner ringing back later that day to let me know if it's serious for a GP to speak to me, usually over the phone a few days later. If it's serious enough I might get to actually see a GP the same week.
Can't remember the last time I saw a GP there at all. It must be well over a year ago, and they are supposed to be keeping an eye on me because of the aortic dissection I had.
The last GP told me I was lucky to be alive, so at least he knew that.
I have spent over an hour today trying to find out anything I can about the Healthcare company in that article, called About Healthcare.
If anyone can find out anything about it, I'd be delighted to be told. Can't find anything on the CCG website, or on my surgery website.
Anybody would think they didn't want us to know about About Healthcare.
