[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 2147990, member: 345386"] There are some fabulous resources there. In our CCG, my surgery is always there or thereabouts for prescribing, in terms of being middle of the road. There are two surgeries where their prescribing levels seem epic. To be fair, they are, in terms of this locale, mega surgeries, so pro rata, they may be about the same. But, that said, prior to seeing the Endo a couple of weeks ago, I used that to check the consultant only medication I wanted (I'll spare you the details) was actually prescribed in my area, and indeed at my surgery (1 case - taken over from secondary care, I assume). It fuelled my determination to be proactive in the consultation. I have no idea how long an NHS consultation is supposed to last, but after 1hr 20 (in two phases), I think he may have been running late. Not at all sure what the three students in the room thought of the debate. Oh well. We have to self-advocate, non? :) [/QUOTE]
