Getting appointments can be difficult

Getting an appointment can be tricky, often you're asked to go to East Bergholt which is much more difficult. I requested a blood test at an appointment, which was done, but i was then asked to come in and see a different doctor about it. When I saw the doctor I was told off for asking for the test as the doctor I'd seen had been a locum an should not have agreed to it. That is for the surgery to inform locums what they can and can't do.
