They don't keep you informed

My appointment was a little bit late but it was fine. I got the outcome I was hoping for but I waited two and a half weeks for it and I think that's appalling quite frankly. It's become more difficult to get an appointment, especially for the same day, as now there's an online form for triage which is a nightmare basically. I used to think we were lucky with being able to get appointments. They don't keep you informed, we didn't know they'd changed the system. It would be useful to be told about big changes via text - they're really good with texts for appointments and reminders so this could work well. For example, I didn't know the home delivery prescriptions come from Swanton Morley not here so if you come here because you've missed your delivery, you're not at the right place. Also my wife waited for weeks in pain to be seen by a GP when she could have referred herself for physio. They didn't tell us this until she got really fed up. They used to be 5 stars but they're 3 now.
