Background

I would like the Government to increase funding to GPs to help ensure they provide face-to-face appointments for everyone who wants them, and increase walk-in clinics so everyone is able to more easily walk in and see doctors rather than potentially just being offered telephone calls.

Additional details

I would like this to happen so people can see a doctor in person, explain their conditions to them and have the doctor assess them in person rather than just speaking over the phone. A face-to-face appointment could help many people a lot more than a mere phone call.
