I was seen by an OOH doctor about a few things. The report says anxiety and ‘seems to want to bring up other issues, after one is finished. Even after 40 minutes of talking’.

OOH is usually ah i've got a chest infection, uti, infected toe or whatever cant wait for the GP the next working day.
What did you need to chat about for 40 minutes?? (Arent appointments 6 minutes max with poorly people waiting??)

I thought ooh drs where for acute issues like infections or rashes at the weekend evening not just a general chat no wonder he wrote what he did

Well is it true?

OOH is usually for an acute issue, that needs sorting urgently. Not 40 minutes worth of chat and multiple issues.

That is their observation. Presumably you discussed the immediate reason for the appointment then added further. What are you worried about?
