Until recently if one had an emergency out if hours one coukd call Celkdic...who in our case can arrange so I could pick up emergency medication locally...my wife had brain surgery and has to have specific prescribed drugs...now you call 111..who send an email to your Pharmacy...where the pharmacist cannot dispense them....suggesting only that you go to a and e ...which last two times we went took 9.5 hours...and almost killed my wife with the anxiety....it seems a common practise now to shrug and pass the buck. And Dulwich Medical Centre itself is even worse a wall of unqualified people who can't help....from a surgery owned by a guy who earns a million quid a year...need I say more

"A wall of unqualified people who can't help"?


Would you care to expand on that, please?


Also, I have recently unfortunately had to go to A&E four times, and after triage they prioritise patients according to need.


If you have to wait a long time it is because there are more urgent cases.


If you don't like the long waiting times, blame the government for underfunding the NHS.


ETA: I have also had to call 111 several times recently, and I absolutely can't fault the service.


ETA: I think you should change the totally misleading subject of this thread.


ETA: And if somebody is making money out of running a surgery, then I suggest you blame the system which allows them to do that. You cannot blame somebody for taking advantage of it, surely.


I blame the Tories, but then I would.

Admin, are you able to change the title yourself if the OP doesn't or won't?


And move it to a more appropriate section of the forum?

    • Agreed and in the meantime its "joe public" who has to pay through higher prices. We're talking all over the shop from food to insurance and everything in between.  And to add insult to injury they "hurt " their own voters/supporters through the actions they have taken. Sadly it gets to a stage where you start thinking about leaving London and even exiting the UK for good, but where to go????? Sad times now and ahead for at least the next 4yrs, hence why Govt and Local Authorities need to cut spending on all but essential services.  An immediate saving, all managerial and executive salaries cannot exceed and frozen at £50K Do away with the Mayor of London, the GLA and all the hanging on organisations, plus do away with borough mayors and the teams that serve them. All added beauracracy that can be dispensed with and will save £££££'s  
    • The minimum wage hikes on top of the NICs increases have also caused vast swathes of unemployment.
    • Exactly - a snap election will make things even worse. Jazzer - say you get a 'new' administration tomorrow, you're still left with the same treasury, the same civil servants, the same OBR, the same think-tanks and advisors (many labour advisors are cross-party, Gauke for eg). The options are the same, no matter who's in power. Labour hasn't even changed the Tories' fiscal rules - the parties are virtually economically aligned these days.  But Reeves made a mistake in trying too hard, too early to make some seismic changes in her first budget as a big 'we're here and we're going to fix this mess, Labour to the rescue' kind of thing . They shone such a big light on the black hole that their only option was to try to fix it overnight. It was a comms clusterfuck.  They'd perhaps have done better sticking to Sunak's quiet, cautious approach, but they knew the gullible public was expecting an 24-hour turnaround miracle.  The NIC hikes are a disaster, I think they'll be reversed soon and enough and they'll keep trying till they find something that sticks.   
    • Totally agree with you.  🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
