Open doctors surgery’s to the general public again!
Make sure the doctors surgery’s are actually seeing patients instead of only doing phone calls.
The doctors are hard to get through on the phone to, my fiancé once had to call 394 times just to get through to an automated service! Also I know of many people who have not been able to see a doctor for important medical issues and have had to go to A&E to be seen by some form of doctor! Henceforth, this is why the NHS is overrun with patients, because doctors are not seeing people.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Decisions relating to GP appointments, including decisions on whether face-to-face appointments are appropriate, are operational matters for the NHS and individual GPs, not the UK Government or Parliament.
We could accept a petition calling on the Government to create a legal right for patients to receive timely face-to-face GP appointments, if that's something you'd like to happen.
