Rated 5 stars out of 5

Consistently great service from all the GPs, nurses and receptionists. In spite of the great deal of pressure the NHS is under, me and my family have always managed to get the medical care we need and we feel in very good hands! Thank you Air Balloon surgery!

Review titled What is the point of e-consult?!!
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 15 November 2022
Can't get appointment, sick or constantly ringing and waiting for 45 mins to be told no appointments ring again. I have no more credit on phone to ring again. Walked there but no appointments. Staff suggest I use e-consult via their website. Took ages to go through all the e-consult questions, but filled in page after page. GP will contact me by end of following day. Following day, text from GP = book an appointment!!!! How has this helped anyone? I've wasted my time, GP wasted their time. What a waste of energy, time and money!! No wonder GP practices are struggling. What is the point of e-consult? Now I'm back to square one. No credit on phone to ring. Too fatigued to walk all the way there again and speak to receptionists.

Dear Patient, Thank you for taking the time to let us know that this has not been a great experience and we are very sorry to hear this. Please can I suggest that you do contact us again, explain what has happened and that the GP responded to your e-consult and asked you to make an appointment. While some things can be dealt with by e-consult, it is not suitable for everything. On this occasion it's clear you need an appointment. E-consult does help us to manage a workload that has grown considerably, while we have no more resources to manage it. We are always happy to discuss concerns or give additional help. If you would like to do this please get in touch and ask to speak to someone in the management team. Once again, we are sorry that you are unhappy and you are struggling to make an appointment. Thank you for making us aware. Kate Francis Practice Manager

A big thank you from my elderly parents and myself to all Dr's, reception staff and nurses at Air Balloon surgery for your help, kindness, advice and understanding over this past year. Phone calls are never rushed, and many go out of their way to help. When needed or urgent, call backs and face to face appointments were made quickly, efficiently and has been very much appreciated. Please continue this great team work. Highly recommend this surgery.

My daughter has a rare genetic condition. We have been around the houses trying to get a right medication for her and are waiting for specialist advice. I contacted my GP as I didn’t know where else to go while we wait for what I assume will be a long time given the pressure the NHS is under. We were given the space to discuss and try different options and despite phoning back on a weekly basis, I was never made to feel like I was being a nuisance. I am really grateful for the compassion and understanding I’ve received from staff at the surgery.

I feel very lucky this is my doctors. I have found every interaction with Air Balloon surgery to be exemplary. Reception staff are kind, discreet and understanding. Medical staff are caring, never hurry you, and really listen. When things are urgent I have always been able to speak to someone who could help. Special mention to the cleaners too as the surgery is always spotless.

Review titled Amazing service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Daisy - Posted on 17 August 2022
Have just moved back to Bristol and needed urgent care following an animal bite. On the day of registration the receptionists were so helpful and caring and the service was swift following a discussion with them at the desk. The doctor I met with was helpful, reassuring and kind. Really chuffed I registered with them and just wanted to say thank you to the staff for being so helpful to a gal in need!

Review titled Wonderful staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Michelle - Posted on 12 August 2022
I have had many dealings with this practice over the years and the staff have always been wonderful . I feel that they need a special mention since covid, under very difficult circumstances the receptionists that I've dealt with have been so professional, kind and caring I think they do an amazing job . The doctors I've seen or had phone calls with have been the same they must be under time constraints but still listened to me and sorted things out for me . I think too many people are quick to complain ut I don't know where I'd be without this practice as my husband and daughter both have serious lifetime conditions so we use the surgery a lot . They do an amazing job .
