that seems pretty dumb. advance reservations are pretty standard for every other business. is there a reason for that?


Political reasons. Unacheivable targets were set by the NHS for no less than a 48 waiting time for GPs. So to get around this problem they just stopped allowing advance bookings altogether.

It's a bit like how your school system has become triply fucked because teachers are being required to meet impossible grade standards across the board.

Edit: I may be totally wrong about this actually. I don't really know the reasons. It might be to stop GPs being booked out for weeks, and to discourage casual people who don't really have problems. I dunno.
