Went in on Friday. I asked if I could discuss another issue and was (politely) told that because it's a ten minute appointment that I'd have to come back again to discuss that issue.
Which seemed...well both shit and a recipe for absolute disaster given how difficult it is for most people to see their GP even once.
So, was she right or should I be more brazen next time?
There's a sign up in my GP's surgery saying it's only one problem per appointment.
A quick Google suggests this is common practice and has been since before the pandemic in some places. It's even in the news now.
Quite where you draw the line is tricky - my auntie was on a lot of pills for pain, anxiety, etc and they'd just tweak one at a time for one condition. It took her having a crisis during lockdown for a doctor to get involved with the lot. She's in a secure dementia ward now after another relapse she didn't come back from, but I wonder if a more holistic approach earlier might have helped.
