      The Pulse survey appears to have been self-selecting so it is always the doctors who are experiencing the biggest problems with waiting times who are the most likely to respond to a survey on the issue, which skews the results, while... 3/

      The survey is only for ROUTINE appointments, not emergency appointments - which make up half of all GP appointments. So, if you’re very unwell, you can see your GP today, but if it’s a non-urgent issue, it will wait a couple of weeks. Which makes sense, surely? 4/

      But the Guardian headline, based on the Pulse headline “Average GP waiting times exceed two weeks for first time ever”, is clearly misleading as HALF of all appointments (ie. those who need to see a doctor urgently) are on the day or the next day. 5/

          There are plenty of problems in the NHS and with patients getting GP appointments, but Pulse magazine and the Guardian should deal with the FACTS and not misleading half truths that don’t give an accurate picture. 6/

          And it's self-perpetuating. A long wait for routine appointments leads to people booking the following day which means more immediate appointments and less time available for booking ahead.

          You also need to take into account certain patient base insist on a female Dr and get several family members to ring in taking up several wasted appointments that could have been given to other patients.

          The people who moan about waiting times are the same ones who moan about house prices while at the same time trying to stop any discussion of mass immigration which is causing those problems. I’m starting to think they just like to moan so seek to create problems.

          And it’s an average so exactly how is their sum calculated? Number of patients/ days / weighted ? Average means some over 2 weeks BUT some under. Explanation required from them.
