Having waited for an appointment since January this year, I finally received an appointment for one day at the beginning of June at 9am.
I arrived at 8.30am and was told to wait in the appropriate waiting area. I was called at 9.15 to be told that the doctor who would hold this clinic was on holiday! The poor nurse who was having to deal with the mess would try to find another member of staff who could take the clinic but had no idea if this was possible or how long the wait would be.
I opted to take the option of another appointment. I think this is very poor service from the NHS.
