I would like to see referrals made to consultants or relative medical practitioners. I have to metaphorically jump through hoops to get help off every GP I have seen all they ever want to do is dump pills down my throat the last ones had a suicide risk to them for Christ sakes. Now if I went to my DWP medical and if there was doubt about my illness then I would be grateful if they sent me to someone who could actually help me
As you say we need a system that tells patients if they are not as ill as they think well ATOS and the system in place does not do that as those who run the medicals are at best a GP in most cases only as good as a nurse so how can they know how ill you are? We all know GPs are useless when it comes to complex illnesses. How can a none psychiatrically trained person say if someone has a metal illness or not? they can not simples same as a DM can not either
