Jess’s Rule: Three Strikes and We Rethink
If you come to see us three times with the same symptoms or concerns, especially if they continue, get worse, or have no clear explanation, it is a sign for us to take a closer look.
Reflect – We will think back over what you have told us. Has anything changed, or could something have been missed? We will make sure you get ongoing care, and if previous appointments were online, we may ask to see you in person for a full check-up.
Review – If there is still uncertainty, we may ask a colleague for their view and check for any warning signs that could suggest a different cause, no matter your age or background.
Rethink – If needed, we will arrange further tests or refer you to a specialist so you get the care you need.
Three visits are not just a number. They are a signal to pause, review carefully, and make sure nothing is overlooked.
