Fantastic service any time I have ever needed them tbf.
Edited to add - My sister in law actually used them yesterday morning because her 6 month old baby had developed a really sore sounding cough and weeze, the woman taking the symptoms on the phone heard my nephew coughing and put her straight through to a nurse, she had an appointment at a&e within the hour for him.
Pretty decent service if you ask me considering most a&e see a minimum of 5+ hours waiting time if you just turn up.
I'm wondering if it just depends on the area you live and who deals with your needs.
