To say the NHS don't care, and to think a private billing GP would care?

[plplz]

DD is 5 months old and I am convinced she has a chest infection, she feels warm, is wheezing and has had a cough for three weeks. Have had two covid tests and both negative, but the NHS doctor still won't see her. Its like they don't believe me and think I'm over reacting.

Her nursery sent her home because she had a temperature, and the GP said everyone is just being overly cautious and its probably nothing.

I am thinking maybe a non NHS doctor (one
I would have to pay for) might actually want to see us; because they have a financial interest to do so.

AIBU? Am I over reacting? Feels like the NHS just don't care now and covid is a great excuse not to actually treat anyone.

Just go to a private GP if you aren't getting the answers you need. Tbh since our GP surgery started saying "I haven't got anything at all for 5 weeks" I stopped calling them and go private (although to be fair we don't go to the GP very often). It can give you real peace of mind, and if you do need a referral they will do it there and then.

A) not everyone can afford to just go private and B) you shouldn’t have to

I have had two different surgeries over the last 8 years - both have been excellent and fit me in every time.

The prior surgery wouldn’t see you, were dismissive and generally very difficult to deal with.

Same area, demographic etc. Just a culture of unhelpfulness.

Plenty of great NHS surgeries looking after patients well - we should all vote with our feet but this again is hard for some people who have less choice.
