Doubling in long waits to see GP and record pressures on A&E One in four patients are waiting at least a week to see their GP, amid mounting pressures in Accident and Emergency departments, new figures show.
The survey of 760,000 patients also shows rising numbers of patients struggling to even get through to their family doctor. The figures show 27.9 per cent of those polled found it difficult to get through to their GP surgery - a rise from 18.6 per cent in 2012.
