Title: Everyone is out to drive me nuts
Post by: Nick on June 06, 2019, 01:59:52 PM
A letter arrives to inform me that my GP is retiring in 2 weeks and that I need to register with a new GP.

I am given a website address and spot a surgery that I already knew about that is about 50 yards from me.

I call them and say I wish to register.  I have to go and do this in person.

Why?

"It is our policy to establish that you are in our catchment area"

Me: I am 50 yards away. My address is....

Her: No, you have to come in in person.

Me: Do I have to bring proof of my address?

Her: No Banghead Banghead Banghead Banghead Banghead

WTF?????
