I think I agree, I can get private gp services through my partners work for about £10 a month, same day consultation, take as long as you need within reason, obviously sick notes and prescriptions are considerably more expensive but the reason I don't sign up is because that's what the government want, a two tired health system where if you can afford it you get excellent quick treatment and the poor can just suffer, I've resisted so far but my resolve is tested with every interaction I have with my gp, still waiting to be referred for an mri scan, seven months on
