Chris, I'm glad your surgeon managed to sort you out and you are now fit and well again.I myself am awaiting my appointment with both the orthopaedic surgery team and the transplant team, I need both knees replacing, and I'm getting desperately close to needing a new kidney.Not looking forward to the meeting with these teams of surgeons, but I guess it's preferable to the alternative option.
The secret to getting an early appointment at the gp is to do it online.Most people ring to get an appointment so those appointments are always taken first.If you go online to book the appointment, these are exclusively on line appointments.The receptionist cannot access these to book over the phone so often when there are no appointments for a week when you ring, they have appointments available online for the same day.Try it, most surgeries now have the appointments on line access |
