Review titled Not fit for purpose
Rated 1 star out of 5
by david - Posted on 13 August 2024
Impossible to contact, Call back, only option, they never call back. no email, no contact available through NHS. I cannot make contact any way!I now have to, with a Achilles Rupture, and crutches, hobble to bus stop, get bus to Manor Street, hobble to the Hub to discuss my upcoming Physio which is totally inappropriate.

Review titled Impressive Service at Photo Dept Today 10.15 Braintree hub
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Derek Thomas Park - Posted on 17 July 2024
As an OAP age95+, I received courteous, polite and helpful service and guidance. A message was sent on my wife's phone instead of our preferred home phone 01376 339713. I am not an IT boffin and do not use sophisticated mobile phones. I look forward to receiving a medical response, hopefully within two weeks. Thank you.

Review titled Insufficient Information
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by DerekJones - Posted on 28 June 2024
It was not made clear when we asked at MountnChambers, Coggeshall Rd for our blood test forms. We were told it would be printed at the hub. On arrival, when my wife was called through, the clinician could not print the form. My wife was told to go back to the reception in the hub as it was Mount Chambers surgery and on the way through told me to do the same. At which point I spoke to another clinician to convey my disappointment at the lack of proper information. Unfortunately, the person I spoke to thought I was being abusive, which was not the case and other people nearby were present and also realised that they did not have forms either. The other people were not Mount Chambers patients and could not have their blood tests, what a waste of time. However, we feel the clinician could have acted more professionally, instead of saying that the so called abuse was above her pay scale and she was not paid enough to take this! I think this is thoroughly inappropriate and the pay scale has nothin to do with me. Perhaps the parties involved can ensure that proper information is given by doctors surgeries and when arriving at the hub. We made a point of actually asking at Mount Chambers, Coggeshall Rd, just told printed out at the hub, no mention of having to go to the hub reception and ask for it!

Review titled Contact with Livewell
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Leon Lister - Posted on 10 June 2024
After using Braintree Community Hospital for blood tests have been told to use Livewell Hub in future. There are no contact details on the Livewell website and no information as to how to book a blood test. After a great deal of time and effort put into searching on line I found the Swiftqueue website and was able to book an appointment. I am reasonably computer literate but it would be a nightmare for less able people to find the process for booking appointments. Surely it is fundamental to the whole process to advise people when they first go onto the Livewell website how to book an appointment. Obviously it would be more straightforward t have a telephone contact number for bookings. Sorry but this is typical of the lack of thought being put into these new online systems.

Review titled Brilliant
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 13 May 2024
I used the online Patch’s system, to request a doctors appointment this morning. Within two hours of the request, I was offered a morning appointment at the Livewell Hub. I attended, it was new, very spacious, very clean, lots of staff, not a long wait to be seen. I needed a blood test, and was able to go back out to reception after my appointment and was offered a blood test then and there. Absolutely amazing service… thank you so much.

Review titled Nhs marie celeste

Booked for a simple blood test early morning; used to use the superb friendly facility at st michaels hospital This glossy hub centre is a nightmare; no parking available, right in centre of town with poor access; facilities on first floor with lifts out of order so inaccessible for less able bodied; staff not interested and kept waiting for no reason for a timed appointment; In total contrast to experience at st michaels Why take an efficient operation and make it worse; classic numptyism
