I want the Government to get to get Doctors back into surgeries. Doctors can spot health problems in people that the patient knows nothing about. Doctors are brilliant at putting people at ease, give them hope but its not the same during phone call consultations. Making people wait, sometimes up to 4 weeks for a face to face consultation. People suffering from mental health issues or feel they have a serious health issue is detrimental to their well being. Get or Doctors back behind their desk.
