From my point of view (as a GP) that is not the experience we would aim to provide.
I think patient choice is key here. In this instance the patient should have been offered a telephone call as a minimum (or video call). The consultant might prefer in person but if they are aware of the challenges the patient faced they perhaps would consider…Read more
