Grrr. I am so annoyed. 20 minutes I've just spent trying to get through to my Dr's only to be told they don't have one appointment left. Bearing in mind they don't actually open till 8, all the appointments have gone in that 20 minutes :crying:
The only appoinments left were through the triage nurse and I'm not ill so would have been told to phone back tomorrow for an appointment. Which I'm going to have to do and spend another 20 minutes getting through again :banghead:
*rant over*

That must be incredibly annoying.
Is yours one of these doctors that don't offer advanced appointments at all then?
If they are and you don't have any luck getting an appointment tomorrow I'd be tempted to see the triage nurse anyway. Just occasionally they have this property called common sense and can book doctors appointments for people who need to see one, even if it's not in the next 6 hours.
I know the triage nurse won;t give me an appointment they will just say try the next day.
I shall be ready tomorrow phone in hand dead on 8! If I don't get anything tomorrow I think I'll camp outside in silent protest just to make sure I get an appointment sometime this week :grump:
Grrr.
