Dr D Bear @deeedoc.bsky.social · 25/03/2025GPs and Cardiologists: What's the pathway to access assessment these days for someone with undiagnosed predictable exercise-induced chest pain? It used to be a GP appointment. GP now seems to advise going to ED even if no current pain. That can't be right, surely? (Not me. I'm fine) 100
