My doctors too is fantastic - I rarely need an appointment that day and can book in advance (not many surgeries still do this!) |

If you ring ours and they are busy you can't even hold on to be answered! A message is played telling you the line is busy and to ring back later........when it is likely all the appointments will have gone by then!! |

Getting through to the doctors is really bad around 8-30am and by the time the receptionist answers the phone at 8-55am the appointments have all gone. |

Andysmum - glad to hear you have a good surgery and that it is in a village. My good surgery is in a town but the brother in law is in a village and the service there is atrocious. |

It's not easy getting through on the phone to our Doctor's surgery, but when you do, the receptionists are always friendly and helpful, and if you are lucky, you can speak to your doctor himself at certain times. |

My doctors is ok I guess but sometimes you have to wait weeks for an appointment...I have a really bad arm and need a steriod injection in it, I asked for an appointmetn last week and the only one they have is for 29th!! To say im in agony is an understatement...I keep asking if I can see a physio as I have a rotating cuff injury from using crutches when I had an op in December but I think it keeps falling on deaf ears..... :-S |

Our surgery is great, rather like Staffyknot's. Pleasant receptionists, usually a choice of times, and also, except when they are on holiday, a choice of doctor. |

I had a problem with my last doctor over my husband death but has I lived just over the road from them and I wanted her to look me in the eyes if she bumped into me (she never could) if any of the doctors I was seeing was running late I was told to go home make a cup of tea and they would ring when the doctor was ready for me, that's what I call service. :-D :-D |

:-D Det - I already have an appointment for next week, with my own doctor - I made it 2 weeks ago, but it's for results of tests I've already had. |

That's the problem with a Monday, isn't it? Hope you manage to get an appointment soon rather than sometime next week! |

My wife and I are very lucky. Our surgery is one of the best in the land and, believe it or not, the receptionists are friendly and not in the least officious. |

Calls does it take to even get hold of a doctor's receptionist? |
