Well, I don't blame the doctors themselves, they are often nice individuals, but it's the bloody NHS and the system - the combination of ridiculous targets which they have to meet to tick the right boxes which triggers financial payments is fundamentally floored. How can medical services be run in that way - madness...we all the victims of the system. It's not how are you feeling but can you help me tick my boxes (and quickly)!

i can't say that i have suffered really badly myself, although i do get the feeling that my gp is a little over stretched and would rather hand out prescriptions rather than find out what may be the cause of problems....

But this is outrageous! One of my friends children were struck off their gp's list because my friend did not want them to have the controversial MMR!!
