Had a phone call from the GP's receptionist today. It basically went like this 'hi, dermatology have had a look at the photos the doctor sent and want to see you'.
I asked when, and the reply was 'don't know, bye'.
Is the equivalent of the letter is in the post?
The same hospital dept last year told me I had melanoma then told me they were sorry they got it wrong.
I wait to find out more...
Hi Max2023 welcome to the forum and I am sorry to hear what has Been happening for you..That's a shocker that the receptionist left you hanging like that. Can you call back and ask to speak to the GP directly as they may be able to tell you more. I would say to the GP about the call you have had and how confusing this has felt for you. If you felt that it would help to speak with someone directly then please do give the Macmillan Line a call and ask for their advice. 08088080000. Best wishes and I Hooe that you get some clarity for you. Gail
