Maybe midday is a good time ?


The lovely lady who did my mum said that GP surgeries were laying off staff ,one practice nurse where there used to be 2 and less blood tests being carried out at surgeries .


So more pressure on clinic .

Yes I've heard this and probably explains long waits (sometimes) at DH. My Mum usually goes to King's and she is seen very quickly at the clinic. Although in some departments their blood taking isn't that good.


If you have to have blood taken on a regular basis it can make you very apprehensive every time you go, especially if you have a bad experience.

I work in Dulwich Hospital, and there's a bit of confusion with the blood dept opening times - some GPs still give their patients the old forms to take to their blood tests, which have outdated information on.


The blood test dept is open Mon-Fri, from 7.30 to 15.45.


I'd highly recommend that if you're swinging by later in the day you try and get there at least 15 minutes before it closes, as they tend to be quite prompt about shutting up shop and don't make exceptions for people who have turned up a few minutes late.

    • One of the best of Shakespeare 's plays.  I did Othello for A level. Also seen a number of stage and film versions. Is there any specific aspects of the play that is difficult for your daughter to understand?  
    • @Sue think this is your quote.  It wasn't binary, good Vs bad, and Corbyn had a lot of popular support, as evidenced by the previous election. He had aot of good policies, some picked up by others since. He was defeated by a mixture of a right wing press,good targeting the Johnson 'Get Brexit Done" and for some that Johnson was a funny loveable rogue/fool/liar/philander/opportunist.  I wouldn't see choosing the perceived least worst candidate out of the two major parties as being "good sense'.  We imagine that Corbyn would have been terrible, but we don't know.  He would have taken a stronger line against Israel in Gaza, not sucked up to Trump nut on Russia?  Would the UK be better for that?
    • We have had 4 greyhounds - the last one, a bitch, was not speyed so we  had to pay for that at our local vet.  Only one dog was nervous around children and only one was cat friendly.
    • Apologies on the tardy reply, but thank you everyone for your responses and suggestions! Unfortunately I couldn't attend the recent EDF drinks because of work (I know right). But will absolutely keep eyes peeled for the next one and try and come down!
