Re: Smoking in public places to be banned
However you are ultimately taking time from consultants that generally work for both the NHS and Privately. You would need to see your NHS GP for a referal (I suppose you could see a private GP, but it is likely to be your NHS GP).

BUPA and the like will soon wriggle and squirm when you start trying to claim for a long term health problem like this

I'll have to agree with you that the NHS is crap though, Mrs H needed an ultrasound and consultant appointment urgently on a Tuesday, the earliest the NHS could do it, the following Friday. BUPA, or £180 from our own pocked if they did not pay up - 5pm.
