Do people see the same GP every time or do they just pick whoever is available? If a follow up was needed would you choose the same GP?
I saw a GP who told me to come in for a follow up after 3 days but then I found out she wasn't even in on that day. Under the circumstances, I couldn't wait the extra day for when she was in so I just went with whoever was available on that day. Not really much I could do about it. It is what it is.
In a good practice with good GPs, you'll be fine.
In the average practice, as far as I've observed, no.
One of the hot topics (since like forever) is how to keep notes. There's a reason why these workshops seem to always exist - because doctors, (and I'm gonna get negged) especially physicians, tend to write a lot of fluff.
A follow up is only as useful as the baseline.
