Geez some doctors are so arrogant... just check the patient and move them on. Going to the doctor isn't a bad thing, thats also how you catch more serious issues.
...that patient just took a slot of someone with a more serious issue 'just move them on' 🤣
@@AM2K2 You don’t know that. That’s the point. That’s why you go to the doctor. It’s a false argument and pointless topic for GMB to fill air time
A good health service would have the capacity to see both patients at the same time @@AM2K2
It’s just to perpetuate the stereotype that the young generation is weak and back in the old days we were mentally & physically tougher, blah, blah, yawn, yawn, eye roll, eye roll.
If studies show that young people are truly a drain to a bleeding system & yet you don’t want to discourage them from frequenting the doctor. Hire a nurse to triage them. Have them fill out an electronic questionnaire prior to the visit with quick questions/quick answers. It’s gets triaged by a nurse and the nurse gives them advice. Stubbed your toe 30 minutes ago? ace bandage, ice, comfortable shoe, walk as tolerated. Holler back, if no significant improvement in 5-7 days.
I'm sorry but acne can be painful and you can suffer with poor mental health. The fact that a doctor just made light of it is very disappointing.
Often this is due to hormonal dysfunction and needs to be treated by a specialist by looking at any hormonal imbalance, diet etc. acne could be an early sign of something going wrong which can be treated easily in the early stages but if left it will cost the NHS a lot more down the line but the GP lady here clearly cannot be bothered
Shaming people with medical concerns and discouraging people to seeking medical help. What an awful take. Though this doesn't even surprise me at this point as many NHS GPs act like patients are wasting their time for being unwell or having concerns about their health. This isn't anything new
Disgraceful. GPs do anything to get out of work nowadays
Acne can be a medical condition that requires a Dr. This Dr should be ashamed of herself. There are people who waste Dr’s time from all ages! Many elderly people go to the Dr for so-called trivial things as well.
Just because there is stories of people going to the doctor for silly things doesnt mean young people should be stigmatised. Crazy.
That GP never took a ethics and professional skills course. How can a doctor speak like that, completely unapproachable.
Yes, let's just keep being horrible to Gen Z. We NEED them to continue the economy. They have the toughest deal of the current names generations, lay off them, educate and encourage!
So young people shouldn’t to the gp for proper answers but also shouldn’t self diagnose or self medicate? Shall we all just pray we never get ill then 🤣
Sounds like it! I am a mother of a young person and I am getting bl@ody tired of people constantly hating on young people.😡
Patients going to see their famiy doctors when they're not feeling well and/or have genuine concerns about their health is Not a "waste of their doctor's time."
OK, if I can't go to the gp because my illness isn't problematic enough, why am I paying taxes that go to the NHS? To make it more affordable to boomers that have been gatekeeping my career or what?
I would be so upset if my GP was as condescending and unpleasant as this lady. Coming to national TV and mocking her own patients is highly unattractive.
GM Britain gotta whip the oldies up into a frenzy about gen z now that they haven't got the Tories to scare them with 🤣
You describe Young people that get GP appointments as offenders. So much for journalistic neutrality. You have no idea what is discussed between a GP and their patient. This is just more deflection and distraction from a funding issue.
I’ve never gone to a GP unless there’s some serious unknown problem and not once have they provided a valid solution
Sore throats are very painful and need early treatment
Yes but not at the doctors
How above GMB invite all people that have real health issues and gp receptionist and GP doctors don't do their job properly.
We all had to sacrafice are lives not just Gen Z's. Why are we Americanising them Gen Zee rather than British Zed?
The irony here is that even if you do go, even if it's for something serious, there's no help anyway 😂 in the UK, there's no help unless your about to die/on deaths door but even then your lucky if even then you get help.
and yet we are told to look out for signs of more serious things which can appear mundane
GP appointment? what's that?
Getting to see a GP is like getting tickets for Glastonbury, Keep redialling between 8.00 and 8.15 and if you're very lucky you may get through.
They always blame the young. Acting like they weren’t ever young.
Because mom believes the articles sent in the WhatsApp group chats about the flying cows. The younger generations barely go to the doctors yet are paying the foot of the bill for the oldies to go to doctors. What happened to doctors telling people to go to doctors to catch things early
Maybe gm Britain could stop wasting our time on this!
I've hired a few young lads in my construction business, only two have been kept on out of 10 or so,they have been taught being weak is a good thing
so your shaming people when they want to go to doctor most cant get to see their doctors because the receptionist doesn't think you need to. some times someone goes to the docs for minor issue but it could be the thing that gets them to open up and talk about something else
Doctors should tell patients the truth if they feel that their reason for attending is pointless. Explain to them why and how they should handle minor medical concerns going toward.
Problem is every GP treats patients differently, (due to personality not experience) There’s the ‘softies’ who unknowingly create an environment whereby patients take advantage of the system. Being too kind and too concerned isn’t always helpful. Then there’s the other type who are harsh and often insensitive driving patients away when they should be seen.
We have to find a middle ground to change how Drs interact with their patients; honesty would be a good place to start.
Yes and no
Waste of time
Soft generation, call them a mean word they melt.
