Re: The GP Patient Survey

Just done my survey. It was quick to do and really will the questions/answers prove anything ? Seem to vague and pointless to me. I know its about appointments more than anything, but why not include some other bits :

1/ When ringing you doctor does the receptionist
a/ Ask why you should need to see a doctor unless you are nearly dead
b/ Inform that only emergencies are being seen today and will your chest pains wait until tomorrow ?
c/ Make you feel guilty for DARING to ring the doctor.
d/ All of the above
e/ None of the above because its the "nice" one on today

2/ When visiting the doctors for your appointment do you:
a/ Arrive early and still have to wait 1/2 past your appointment time ?
b/ Make uncomfortable eye contact around the room as you realise no-one waiting in there looks sick, apart from the one guy with chronic bronchitis
c/ Suddenly feel better
d/ Decide its going to be bad news and that the small mole on your back that your partner saw is actually a precursor to pulmonary embolism, Ebola Virus and as yet undiscovered diseases.
e/ And then when you find out its not promise to mend your ways and improve your lifestyle, whilst smoking a fag and having a fish and chip dinner to celebrate ?

See, far more pertinant information
