Marilyn and Jamie have been nagging me to find a new doctor. Jamie's doctor has just opened a new surgery in Westbury which is only 15 minutes away and Marilyn has decided to go there too. The doctor she had in Longford is on the verge of retirement and Marilyn found herself being fobbed off to junior doctors or locums whenever she needed to get advice.
I've been stubbornly holding out but, when I rang the other day to get an appointment to talk about my bad back and was told the earliest I could see my preferred doctor was February, I decided to pull the plug. I don't need to talk about anything serious but I'm not happy to wait for 6 or 7 weeks.
I know that, as the new practice gets underway, it will get busier but that's a bridge to be crossed another time.
