@leatash ...you are missing the point. stop barking on about charges/penalties. if someone does not have a genuine reason for missing their appointment, and i agree a phone call to cancel isn't that difficult to do, then if they repeat this on a number of occassions then take them off the barton surgery attendance list. It seems to many people seem to be happy to have penalties/charges/fines ...
250 people fail to attend their appointments. So what action is taken to maximise this failure? When a person fails to attend for their appointment wouldn't the first action be, by Barton, to try to make contact with the patient to find out if they had just forgotten or possibly now in hospital due to not being able to see their requested g.p. in a timely manner. Does reception restructure ...
@Duckileaks - i most probably haven't seen the new influx of doc's. as the last time i went to barton( or any others doc) was about 3 years ago. i can only give my opinion on what it was like 3 to 14 years ago.
@ZIGGY - they most probably forgot they had booked it, seeing how long they may have had to wait!

@Sales - sounds like a good idea, especially if the camera was hidden away so the fire bugs did'nt know where it was. like many things the council spends vast sums of money on there is little ryhme or reason as to what they feel is essential to support the comunity. I suppose if it is something that costs vast sums of money and is pointless it is well in with a chance. Something that could be ...
I only ask because I cannot see Anne Marie Morris on the list (Daily mail) for either a vote for/against the Brexit Bill. I just wondered if she had, but had been missed off the list. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4183190/How-did-MP-vote-night-s-crucial-Brexit-Bill.html
On Friday morning I was driving down The Strand, in my car, towards the junction with the A379. I witnessed an adult male riding his cycle off the A379 and ride up the centre of The Strand towards me. The cyclist bumped up the curb and on to the pavement by Boots and only because I was in his way. It's the same issue for all the anti social behaviour that affects residents of Dawlish. It's not ...
