THINGS are obviously far worse with the NHS than one realises especially with our local surgeries.

My grandson had a urine infection and nobody could see him in one of six surgeries, so my daughter had to take him to A&E.

Before the Covid epidemic the car parks at the surgeries were always pretty full - but not in the last six months or so.

You can't even get a review of your medication where once you had to have one every six months.
