Madam, – I recently paid €50 for a visit to my GP in order to get an appointment with a medical consultant in Blackrock Clinic for a ten minute visit which cost me €180.
Presently, we are all taking cuts in wages etc. Are these professions excluded from the hardship we are all experiencing? Would they not take a voluntary cut or else could the Minister for Health reduce their fees or put a cap on them?
We must all play a part to alleviate the hardship most of us are experiencing. – Yours, etc,
