Low doctor staffing levels - issues
I have elderly parents, their access to care is increasingly compromised by very low doctor numbers in this large practice. Permanent medical staffing seems to be an increasing issue, patients have little or no continuity. Very long waits on the phone to the practice are now normal daily practice - 45 mins is common. What are plans to improve service for users? Are staff numbers adequate or safe for the town? No criticism of reception team who do their best to respond to what must be difficult situation to manage.
