I went to the doctors today which was my first time dealing with the British medical system. I can’t say how impressed I was with how smoothly things went. To book the appointment I had to call my local NHS outpost a week in advance. When I showed up, the reception desk had touch screen to select my birthday and then notify the doctor that I was in. The doctor himself called my name on time. I went to his office, we had a chat, he checked me out, answered my questions, wrote a prescription and out the door I went in twenty minutes. I didn’t have to fill out any paperwork. My visit was free. I don’t have to file any forms. Amazing.
