Rochelle O'Connor shares a similar experience, claiming that they were denied a COVID-19 vaccination despite having an appointment and meeting all the necessary criteria.

Unrealistic Expectations and Long Waiting Times
JessAL's review highlights a common issue with the centre's appointment system, stating that they often have to wait 40 minutes or more for a doctor and that reception rarely advises of delays. They suggest that patients should only visit if they have plenty of time to spare.
