I rang this morning, repeated dialling without a break from 0759 to 0823 before I got an answer to make an appointment - considered to be urgent, chesty cough now for 5 days and getting worse every day.
No appointments available today - however the Doctor will telephone you, what good that will be God only knows as it is impossible to make an accurate diagnosis and prescribe medication based on a telephone conversation.
"Please can I make an appointment for tomorrow then?" I asked. The response - Sorry we can't make future bookings - ring tomorrow morning at 0800.
