Hi,
Just need to.get this off my chest no doubt it is something many if you are familiar with. I had my meds review in the phone which was fine. I then told the GP a out mh previous review and how the receptionists told me any GP could do it. I told her of the pleasant chat I had with the GP and he clearly didn't have a clue why I was there. It was my first time and i was a bit nervous. She told me no, that's not right you need to see me. I explained how I asked a few times but no I could see anyone.i then told her about my flu jab experience. I went to see the DN for feet,BP and weight asked the receptionist if I could have the flu jab at the same time? .Oh no, she is doing the diabetes stuff. Ok so went to make an appointment at Boots, easier and fitted in with work. Went to see the DN whose first words to me were, 'while you are here would you like the flu jab?' Yes please and i cancelled the appointment at Boots. The GP on the phone thos morning could only aplogise. Ahhhhh, now how to by pass those receptionists in future?
