To expect an earlier appointment

It's policy where I live to get that message, even if there is nothing wrong. If the issue were serious I'm sure they wouldn't make you wait until June as they'd want to get onto it right away. I hope you get to hear everything from the registrar this afternoon and it's all good news.

I went for a routine blood test yesterday. 8.30 this morning I receive a text asking me to ring and make a telephone appointment with my doctor to discuss the results. Finally got through to the surgery around 10.30 to be told the first available telephone appointment is on 2nd June! It appears my doctor only works 2 days a week and none of the doctors in the practice are available for an earlier appointment also none are doing face to face appointments.

Finally the receptionist agreed to have the registrar ring me later today to discuss the results.

I have never been asked to contact the surgery following previous blood tests so am now concerned something may be drastically wrong. (Have to say I feel fine but this may cause my blood pressure to rocket!)
