NHS Petition

People are having a lot of problems with GP’s as unable to get appointments, unable to get GP to do a home visit when they are housebound, refusing to give out medication such as sleeping medication so making their patients seriously ill in health, refusing to refer the patients to consultants.
Taking far too long to get into Pain Clinic’s.
Long time to wait to see consultants, in some cases up 18 months if not longer.
Years to get surgery they are needed so making the patients ill in health.
Waiting months between appointments with physiotherapists.
Patients are having to wait for years following consultations assessment in NHS hospitals to carry out treatment, often patients do not get to see the consultant again just a physiotherapist to tell the patients the consultants decision then they decide whether the patients get to see the consultant for treatments then waiting again for an appointment which has been up to 2 years if not longer.
Wheelchair users are finding it difficult to find a dentist that has wheelchair assess yet by law all public service buildings have to be accessible yet not many councils are enforcing this.
People finding it difficult to find a dentist that excepts NHS patients with wheelchair access.
