@drtimmercer: Day in the life of a GP Episode 25. Today it rained a lot, but I saw a lot of patients in the clinic so it was a happy day of interacting with the nice people that come to see me so I can help them. Then I attended to all other crucial matters such as saving the NHS £3 doing a swap from one blood pressure tablet to another. And rewriting a PMAC. And singing Cher. #gp #generalpractice #nhs #medicine #doctor

I love putting an e-consult in. My GP get back to me by 6pm the following day if non-urgent. Can add photos and avoids the unnecessary need for a trip to the actual Drs icl - helps the introvert in me😂

also I love the online forms at GPs! as an autistic person it's a lot easier for me to explain in writing and my practice always gets back same day and I've had no problems seeing a GP

i don't mind the online form, at least I don't have to explain my symptoms to a receptionist now

My mum, in her late 70s, really struggles with the online triage form. I think it’s good for the younger demographic but does exclude a big user group of the healthcare system

My partners gp doesn’t do triage, it’s still the 8am rush. How come they’ve avoided it?

As a neurodivergent who has always called to book an appointment I find it incredibly difficult to change but I keep getting told by the receptionist I have no choice so now I just don’t go to the doctor and just pray I get better 🤣😩

i found it easier even when working to book in via online consultation as because I was usually travelling, I couldn't get through via phone until I got into work, by which time, appointments were gone and I'd have to try the next day xx

Doctors introducing online forms is perhaps the best thing to ever happen to general practice.

Yeah online consultation is easier, I can send pics and have a few back and fourth texts on my gps text system thing. Sooo much easier and quicker. We gotta move with the times.

As a patient i love econsult/triage. As someone who works in a GP surgery i don’t mind it but it’s so time consuming for everyone involved
