Emailed my msp Stuart mcmillan... he said there isn't an issue and if I find there is I shld put in a complaint
Makes you wonder....So a GP is happy to speak to a waiter in a restaurant or an assistant in a shop, but if those same people want to speak to the GP in their surgery it is too dangerous?!!!!

Terrible place.... avoid like the plague... you can't get through for appointments ... because the automated service hangs up on you... the prescription line is only opened 9-3... same for the enquiry line... and the practice manager is the most ignorant person I've dealt with .

Doctors never have enough time to listen to your particular problems. I know I am not alone in thinking this and a petition was being organised over this.
