Oh! I thought the balloons of questionable taste would be more on the naughty side of questionable taste.

Planning to call doc tomorrow afternoon. Just so difficult to get appointment at time when TSO can provide a lift. The reception staff are rude.   Also, I dread going because GP clearly does not like me and thinks I am a waste of his valuable time.

I really am afraid to go, not because of what might really be wrong, but because I am treated so vilely at my surgery. I am not the only one. There are 2 other women of certain age who attend the same surgery and feel the same about how the reception staff, the practice manager and/or at least one doctor deal with patients.

It is demoralising to be shushed and made to feel you are a waste of time.
