DVLA HEART CHECK UP IN LEICESTER A story from Northcote in 2008
The local surgery has five partners. I have tried almost all of them and my current doctor is brusque and always very much to the point.
I like his straight forward “no nonsense” approach, but many do not.
He began,” after everything else you have encountered this year, you will “walk” this examination.”
“Anyway, he concluded it is a very expensive form of heart check up and you are getting it without waiting and for free!” End of argument.
I telephoned the office of the secretary to the heart consultant at Leicester to confirm my appointment and explained that I would be travelling on my motor bike.
Quite spontaneously she burst out “You can’t do that, patients are normally driven home after this procedure!”
“Well, I explained, it has to motor bike as that is all I have!”
My Ford Escort (MX5) convertible had already been transferred to France on our large trailer to live there permanently. (See Digby locked us out story).
A sigh of resignation from Leicester ended that telephone conversation.
