I telephoned Portway Surgery to enquire why my antibiotics to treat UTI and on going kidney stones were left off my prescription and I as told that doctor refused to authorise them at this time unless I was seen by him. I use a wheelchair at all times, I have no transport . I was asked to make an appointment for a doctor to make a home visit to discuss my prescription and the reasons why my antibiotics were left off my prescription at this time. My consultant at the Princess Of Wales was the doctor who put me on antibiotics initially so I fail to see how doctors at Portway Surgery can take it upon themselves to take me off antibiotics without consultation with my consultant first . I am loathed to call the doctor out just to discuss my prescription but, as I am unable to get to Portway surgery I will discuss the matter with my consultant as I am waiting on possible kidney stone surgery in the very near future.
