[QUOTE="malky39, post: 766029, member: 12360"] There is special clinics with nurses and consultants with expertise in diabetes there the diabetes clinics at hospitals. This is where I go for all of my diabetes care. I trust my nurses more than I would my GP with my condition the nurses know me and the problems specific to me. In the 10 years since diagnosis I have never used my GP for my diabetes care. They do try and get me to go to them, which I think is purely because I am on there books and they have to look like they are doing something, but I never go and never will unless out of some stroke of luck a GP in my surgery arrives who is a specialist in diabetes even then I would probably still go to the hospital. Its also quicker to get an appointment with the nurse as my surgery you need to wait a week, which is a long time to wait. [/QUOTE]
