My gp surgery is awful, I wait on the phone for half an hour or longer anytime I call, then when I get through I cannot get an appointment.


It is a big surgery and only has one doctor on most days. The nurse is only in 2 days per week and not for full days.


My daughter had surgery recently and I was advised to get her dressings changed two days later, I called to try to make an appointment for this two days in advance and was told no nurse would be in for the next few days. I had to take her to a walk in centre and wait for hours to get the dressings changed, which I was not happy with as she had just had surgery and should be resting at home.


Now a week later I have tried to get an appointment with a doctor as her wound appears to be infected and cannot get one for today.


If you are happy with your doctors could you advise:


- Can you get an appointment on the day if you call in the morning if it is urgent?

- Do you regularly see the same doctor? Or are they all locums?

- Is there more than one or two doctors available per day?

- Is there a nurse working each day?


Please advise as I have had enough of not getting any help from my surgery especially when it concerns my daughter.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
