So, sign up for your gp practice as an online patient. Just go to reception and ask to be an online patient and they will give you a form to take away.
Online bookings are brilliant as so few people actually use them.. Less than 11% at our gp are registered.
They list all the gp's, all the available bookings etc... We too have one gp that is always in demand. You can get to see this gp within 5 days if you book on line.
If you haven't had good control for 2 tears etc, if you didn't want to go online, why can't you just wait for the good gp? You haven't been too anxious before? However, I would really recommend you register online for you and your family.... You'll get better appointment availability guaranteed and you can book your appts at midnight if you wanted to go online and do them rather than having to talk to receptionists in set opening hours.
Try lowering carbs again. Even taking small steps towards this will be beneficial...
GP's that are signed up to certain targets and ways of being paid have to introduce certain online things for their Patients by certain dates...
This means appointments online, prescriptions online and medical records..
This online capability has actually been available for 10 years apparently according to one practice manager I spoke to today.
Our gp practice gave access to online medical records today. I was the patient that they tested it with. It only gives details of medicines that are on repeat scripts, allergies and current medications that have been prescribed.. (Mine go back to when I joined practice in 2012), and also any injections such as refusing flu jabs, tetanus etc.
By joining PPG's you can ask the Practice's to listen to their Patients and make this available.
My practice Manager today literally pressed two buttons on his keyboard and it was done!!
Our Practice uses Patient Access. We are given a code number and can then register on-line. At the moment all we can do is make/cancel appointments and renew prescriptions. I believe that access to medical records is still on trial in certain areas, but is on some sort of roll out system. We haven't got it yet.
With our practice I had to go through a setup process before I could access things online.
Had to go in, register in person, then they generated a letter with my password on it.
I can renew prescriptions, and cancel appts, but I need to check if I can make them in the first place... Thanks @donnellysdogs that's good info.
And welcome to @abaddoncultist and @Connie cutie !

Do you click on something within your gp website or log in to Patient Access?
If your GP uses the Patient Access system the post above applies to your system too. Unfortunately GP's do not all use the same system!
Emis is the one that Patient Access system uses so you should get everything....i looked at my clinic and it said this, maybe they are updating huh
Online Bookings
This service is no longer available due to a clinical system change. Emis online booking will be available soon.

My GP has just transferred to this new system. Apparently it offers many new facilities such as DNA tracking etc.
Lol it is a throw back to my days of being a prolific gamer with a side interest in games workshop.
Looks like there might be a few closet gamers here, between me and husband the only 40K armies we don't have are orcs and chaos, and on some we even double up. I won't start to go into all the other games and makes we have. We really need a bigger house to store them all in.
