Glemsford Surgery, Sudbury


Weekend appointment

Today I had a blood test which easy to arrange but I called the surgery to see a doctor and was offered a phone call but really wanted a face to face appointment. I was able to get an appointment on a Saturday which was great but in 2 weeks time. If I'd waited to see my doctor it would've been nearer 6 weeks. It would've been nice to hear back about my blood test results, I was sort of expecting a call to say all was fine or not but appears you're called only if there's a problem, which can be slightly worrying.
