I wanted to make an appointment to see my GP, to update him on my latest hospitals indefinite cancellation of my long awaited appointment, but he's on holiday, fair enough. So I thought I would make an appointment for when he returns, BUT the receptionist tells me that he has four appointments already booked for his return and he left instructions saying that was the most he would see after his return as he does not want to be busy when he starts back after his holiday.
That's wonderful, I wish we could all do that, have three weeks holiday and then come back and take it easy, most people come back to work and have abacklog causing extra work, and a need for another holiday.
I guess the hospitals have a similar philosophy and hence the long waiting lists and high rate of cancelled appointments
