So for two months now our GP surgery has a recorded message saying large levels COVID sickness only ring in an emergency etc etc.

So would you think this is possible or do they heed to change their message.

My GP cuts you off if more than 15 in the queue, I rang at 8am exactly and was number 6. Thankfully got a telephone appointment

My worry is that it eill put the people off who need appointments the most.

The people who need an appointment the most will probably be forced to dial 111 or go to A&E.
Which is a good plan for the Gp as it reduces the amount of work they have to do, and they still get paid for having the patients.

@KangarooKenny the message tells you to go to the,Pharmacy.
