Furnishings excellent. Receptionists - friendly enough. Doctor that I saw - not good at all. I have a chronic lung condition under the respiratory team at Jimmies. I get frequent chest infections and I need 10 days of antibiotics each time. 5 days will only make the bacteria resistant in the longer term. The letter from the specialist lung doctors said so already. Had 8 courses of antibiotics already in under 6 months, I need to be re-referred back for more specialist care. This time, 50ml green-yellow sputum, fevers every night for last 4 nights. Nasty productive cough. GP said NO to antibiotics, NO to re-referral back to respiratory medicine, and NO to even writing a letter to the clinic to find out when the next slot will be. Told me to phone them up myself. Said that I had a ?viral infection. No viral infection presents like this. What happened to Ideas, Concerns and Expectations? What happened to clinical management per NICE guidelines? I am not happy with the care I received. At all. Shiny GP building.
