CARL58 medical records

I've just been in touch the CARL58 doctor's surgery about access to his medical records, the earliest is 14th June,one because it's not a doctor's appointment,two you get to see them with the surgeries manager,told them needed them before that still june.so it will be June.why is this country so hard to get access to things do they think where run off with them,we also wanted copies of his recent x-rays once the doctor has looked at them,typed out his findings we don't keep the x-rays.well can we have a letter please.that will cost you £25 ok if that's the case 10 to 14 days just for a drs letter.anymore of this negativity, I'll be as puddled as CARL58,I don't mean that but every way you turn you hit a wall jen
