I think the tragedy of this is that this position does not reflect the dedication and ability of most of the medical staff, who on every encounter I have with them fill me with confidence because of their patience and kindness.
It does, however, reflect the inevitable consequence of a beaurocracy fuelled organisation, set targets to fulfil short term political ambitions, and freed from sharp high ability management focused on patient experience. Who every time I encounter them make me shake my head in despair.
Sadly, private medical health for me is not really an option. I already paid once, and cant quite see my way to paying again. Plus, as a raving leftie I am a bit squeamish about jumping the queue just because I have more cash.
