[QUOTE="Judy02, post: 49712371, member: 136882"] Yeah a month or so back, I was able to get a same day appt at my GP surgery as well. I think you usually need to try and ring pretty early, like 9am, but it seems pretty good. I know the NHS is far from perfect in the way its managed at times, but I just have such a strong feeling privatised healthcare would be so much worse, and a very elitist system, where richer people's lives are more important. It just sickens me, and to only be concerned with keeping people alive if they only have money just seems morally wrong. I can't understand how anyone working in the medical profession, dedicating their lives to making ill people better, can ever feel ok about that? Thanks very much for everyones contribution to the thread though and keep them coming. It's really interesting to hear peoples thoughts on the issue who are from the UK. I know this gets debated a lot every so often in the WD forum on here, but I was interested in hearing what people who live in Britain think about this idea. [/QUOTE]
