    Choice? Where? I have never seen any kind of choice available within the NHS. I don’t see it getting any better either.

    Choice? Yes, you have a choice to wait umpteen months for life-saving/improving surgery – or pay for it yourself and go abroad!

    If we had the money we’d go private as to get an appointment at our local doctors takes up to and sometimes more than 3 weeks! “Hello, is that the surgery? Yes, I think I’m going to be ill in about 4 weeks time and would like to book an appointment where the doctor won’t even give me eye contact and will tell me it is a “virus” making me feel a right time-waster.”

    Funnily enough, I was just saying to Akra today that it would be lovely if we had enough money to subscribe to a private GP service. I think it’d be worth every penny.
