Woodhouse Medical Practice Craven Road NHS

As a reluctant user of our Ireland Wood doctor, Woodhouse was a shock. Inner city residents have two medical dumps within minutes of the road block on Craven Road.

My friend was reluctant to use Woodhouse Medical Centre because the usual NHS receptionist attitude problem led her to believe she would be kidnapped. The area obviously has a high mortality rate, only improving due a temporary influx of students?

I got to Craven Road Medical Practice an hour early, explained I was a carer of one of their patients. She was likely to be late. JC had wandered off in Golden Acre Park and forgotten the appointment.

The place stinks of cheap disinfectant, it’s methodone thursday and a guy with severe chest pain cannot be seen for five days, he is told to go to A & E. when I suggested that JC might be late, I thought they might give some time for the suspected heart attack? No, receptionist gave me a telling off about confidentiality and the data protection.

Even patients there were wierd, is it because its methadone, thursday? Benefits run out?

Doctor seemed quite nice but very old. They only do one or two problems at a time so if you have not been for a while or are scared of doctors it could be difficult.

It would be good for the Craven Road NHS to have a funeral director’s built in! This would remind patients and staff of their own mortality and cheer the place up, maybe the embalming fluid would cut down cross infections and reduce the death rate?

I thought up a really good way to speed up service at Craven Road, buy doctors some Computer friendly bifocals and send them on a speed keyboard course. Maybe they could use voice recognition software that would write the medical records and also translate their english to Woodhouse Yorkshire?
