We asked the people of Leeds if they find it hard to book a GP appointment.
Transcript
00:00 find it difficult to book a GP appointment in Leeds? Impossible. And why is that do you
00:04 think? I think probably bad organisation within the surgery itself. Possibly fatigue. The
00:15 GP booking service online is fine for the younger generation but it's harder, difficult
00:21 for the older generation. Has it always been that way do you think? No, no it used to,
00:26 it just gradually got worse. Since Covid we've had some wonderful excuses. Yeah, quite difficult,
00:35 it's not easy. And it's not nice not being able to have a face to face interview. You
00:43 always have to have a vocal first and then very often you have to have a face to face
00:47 interview which rather seems to be the object of triage or whatever, you know, so that frustrates
00:52 me sometimes. Yeah, otherwise, well, I'm lucky I haven't had to make one for yours. How do
00:59 you say that? 2021, February, March 2021 would have been the last time and that had always
01:06 been easy. That's good to hear, and yourself? I have no difficulty booking to see a nurse
01:12 or one of her colleagues. Which you do have to do regularly. Which I do do regularly so
01:17 that works pretty well. I've never seen a GP since I've been here to an office.
