Primary Care Trust pointless



Saw the PCT Tuesday to chase them up on getting me a dentist.
Now the old girl said oh the advocacy letter will be in
going to the dentists about Friday will it. I said I don't
know. I couldn't see what it had to do with the matter at hand.

When I saw the advocacy charity woman about the dentist she
recommended a letter, I said, a letterrr. So Wednesday
she showed my a go, I added some, she later emailed a larger
version, mostly about when she came in, the PCT etc all in
the third person. I sent it back in the first person with
my experience of the subject cutting out, what I can only
say is the grovelling to the dentist for my existence.

Now I'd got so wrapped up with the events and the roaring
tooth aches headless chicken etc. That it only sunk in after
a nap on Friday of what she said on Wednesday, in that
the PCT weren't going to look for a dentist for me until
I had got a reply back from the dentist.

So I phoned a dentist and got an appointment.

Now the headed paper arrived today with the statement of
dissatisfaction on it, and I'm not sure it's even worth sending it off.

But what gets me now is just what on earth it's got to with
whether the PCT and the timing of whether they look for a dentist
for me or not. The letter is charity complaint thing to a dentist
I'm not seeing again. Why on earth should that allow the PCT
to delay the time in which the try and find me a dentist?
It's none of their business really and I am a human being with teeth.

All PCT have to do it seems is to make sure people get some medical
help. But to me it seems the only work they do is delay everything,
sitting on their hands, clogging up the works with red tape.
Stuff you and your dire medical condition. They're all for the
medical practitioner helping them construct complaints against you.

The advocacy woman said she heard the PALs woman that there is a whole
list of missed appointments by me. A lie of course but typical of
the treatment from that practice. Another story but even if I had
missed a lot of appointments it doesn't equal killing teeth.

I recently popped in the CAB to find the exact address to the PCT.
They had never heard of it. Is it any wonder, the PCT seems to be a
bunch of pointless time wasting pen pushers hiding away in their tower block.
There for the medics, to block complaints from patients.
A hideous red tape body that I advise everyone to avoid like the plague.
