Report
Shocking wait for calls to be answered GPS still not seeing patients face to face without telephone consultation first one member of reception staff requires a communication training course. Since levenside bought another practice it has become far to big for the number of Dr's available. The pandemic is being used to introduce a service and it certainly isn't for the patients benefit big business with little care sad times for NHS patients
