| Comment | Just phone and ask the receptionist for an appointment to talk to the doctor. You will probably be offered a telephone appointment in the first instance but if you really don't feel comfortable with that then just tell the receptionist that you would prefer to talk to GP in person. Don't be surprised if you are asked what you want to discuss but just keep it very general and mention anxiety or mental health concerns, it's just to make sure they're making sure you're seen in an appropriate timescale. Just phoning for an appointment can seem daunting if you are struggling with anxiety but I'm sure talking to someone will help. Good luck to you, you are doing the right thing by reaching out for help. |
