If I get a letter from the NHS for an appointment at the local clinic, turn up 5mins early, and 20mins after my appointment time I'm still not called forward, I go and complain.
What makes them think that their time is more important than my time?
If there's a delay, why can't I be told when I arrive?
If I have an appointment with them, they also have an appointment with me. This is a two-way thing!
If I turned up 20mins late, THEY would complain!
Today, I complained, and then left, and told them to send me another appointment, and we'll try again.
Drives me MAD.
You are retired, they have jobs to do. Their time is more important than your time.
I agree Mick - people don't mind a wait if told "up front". They understand the NHS is under pressure, but to be taken for granted isn't good, and is completely avoidable.
