Ormskirk Walk In Centre
The crazy system that is now in force at our g.p's works like this. I made an appointment for a telephone call (in ten days hence). After I've had this conversation, I would then have been told I need to see a doctor. That appointment would also have taken about ten days, i.e. nearly three weeks to actually make progress.
Today I went to the Ormskirk Walk In Centre. Arrived 1.30, was called in 1.35 and came out at 1.45 with a diagnosis and recommendation that my own doctor refer me to the specific department.
Absolutely brilliant service and the NHS at its very best. Sadly though, I foresee my doctor will suggest I need to see him in person before he makes the referral so we'll be back to another long wait to duplicate what's already been done.

Had to use it a few weeks ago, can’t speak highly enough about the service, brilliant.
If I’d have gone to Southport A & E I’d probably still be there now.

I thought Southport had a walk in centre at the hospital, a building in the rear carpark?

Not according to the NHS site, I think it’s a “Doctor on Call Unit”

we went to southport A&E this week. which is somehin i have never used in years, waited about 2 n half hours at most, i was seen by the specialist eye docter who gave me a excellent eye tests..and his time was also excellent he spent with us ..i had blood shot eye bad, i had an accident at home, somethin hit inside my eye.. would have waited much longer if i had gone to see my docter, also it may have got pretty serious by then, got antibiotic cream for my eye of him to. so ten out of ten for me... well done A&e... and thankyou... it was very bizy in there ...

Not too good GR, this getting old is no good (although it beats the alternative)
Back in Broadgreen next week, had to give up work, so overall not the best of years so far.

Sorry to hear you're still not well Steed. Hope things improve for you pretty soon.
Just be yourself, no one else is better qualified!!

Thanks Nick and GR’s, I’ll more than likely be out of action for a few weeks. Look forward to continuing the banter then.
