Suffering for the last few months with severe pain on shoulder abd wrists, every time I try to make an appointment with my doctor it is at least 2 weeks wait. I was sent to Witney Hub for physio, not impressed with level of service. I then had 2 sessions with private physio who gave thorough examination, tests and exercises. He suggested going to doctors for xray which I didon't. Xray results came back ok. I returned to private physio who said doctors need to refer me to Nuffield Orthopedic Hospital . Booked appointment with doctor to request this, doctor was very condescending when I told him about the private physio, rather than commend my actions for trying to help my condition he seemed to want to ignore advice I had been given. He had referred me to nhs clinic at Deer Park I cannot get an appointment until April. I am still in severe pain cannot sleep or fully function what worries me more is when I look at the reviews about Deer Park all seem to say it is a waste of time and staff not being able to help.I cannot continue like this . I am sure the doctors would react quicker and refer themselves to the Nuffield. I am a strong believer on the NHS but feel lately I am only being given lip service and a tick in the box for meeting target objectives on appointments.

The last four weeks all I had is telephone appointments. Change meds twice, and still not sorted. I understand the practice is short staffed but Two of my telephone appointments have lasted 10 mins so not really saving time. Every telephone appointment is a different doctor so they say something else. Very confusing. Especially when they use at least Two doctors who are working remotely and not even in the surgery.
