My GP doesn’t even allow you to book double length appointments online. You’re limited to 10 minutes unless you call them up, which is a minimum 20 minute hold time somehow, usually closer to 30/40 mins
I try not to judge when he runs late, because he’s a good egg, and having been that person who really needed a double length consult, I’m damn glad he didn’t just kick me out half way through
They’re also fucking expensive and waste their money on fancy artwork on the walls 🙄
I don’t have to worry about costs RN because they entirely bulk bill under 18s, and once they don’t, I have a little bit of funding to cover medical bills. But once it’s on my own dime I’m gonna switch quicksmart. The trouble is, decent GPs very rarely work in those lower cost clinics which sucks
