And provide a free service!( apart from prescriptions if you have to pay)

You may be upset at the mo but just because you dont have the answers you want/need dosnt mean they dont know what they are doing

I am sure the professionals at the sharp end (doctors and nurses and all manner of support staff) strive to do their best. There is no doubt that the politicians have got in the way with their meddling, reorganisations, targets and micro management. The difficulty is that we could spend the whole of our national wealth on healthcare without fulfilling demand.

The big powers have silenced me. So much for free
My dad is a doctor (not GP) and mothers a nurse, and I am a student Paramedic. The NHS is a brilliant service, obviously, its free healthcare. There are always going to be some people who are unhappy especially with diagnosing a possible brain tumour. Its not something you can just make a rash decision about and decide to whip it out. If they cant diagnose it there and then, they will wait to see any changes which would have been explained to your grandad.

No point operating, especially on the brain, to find it is nothing other than a mark on a scan. It needlessly puts lives at risk, and costs a sh*t load of money. Tumours can take months or years to become apparent with no health risks. When they become dangerous you show signs way before.

It is not a waste of money because if you pay National Insurance which funds the NHS, you are not paying a huge deal, and getting perscriptions for £8, free doctors, free hospital. Its not really a bad deal so stop feeling victimised because you werent told the full story :)

It's such a hard thing to diagnose. Look how hard you find it to use punctuation and then times that by a million.

Yes they can be **** poor, I injured myself playing footie two weeks ago, the doctor said an x ray was not required and that it would be ok in a week, I went back the other day and had an x ray, I had broken my collarbone, although it is a fairly minor injury the service provided was sh*t.
was that under 16 game a bit tough for you matey :)

The nhs is under alot of pressure which means unfortunately over worked staff,

More mistakes are getting made,

If any one wants a rant about the public sector don't blame the trusts themself.
