  1. Review titled A very good practice.

    I received a quick appointment to a worrying matter and the Doctor eased my mind with a positive reaction which put my mind at ease.

  2. Review titled Worst appointment system ever! Unhelpful reception staff.

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 31 January 2025

    You are advised to dome consult every time you need an appointment. You log on at 7.30am to do the e consult in the hope that you will be given an appointment based on your health systems. 3-4hr s later you get a call to say no appointment call 111. You call 111 and they refer you back to the practice. You can go round and round in circles like this. Even if you have told the practice that you can’t get out of bed due to the extreme pain you are in. How do people who don’t have a computer get an appointment at this practice? Who advised them to have an appointment system like this? What do you have to do to get appointment here? Most of the receptionists are clueless and unhelpful.

  3. Review titled Very hard to get appointment

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Jeanne - Posted on 07 November 2024

    I tried several times to book an appointment, but I'm expected to use their online service to book, which doesn't work and always tells you to "try again tomorrow", even when logging in at the service's opening time. I have tried to call to book instead, but I was told that if I don't use the online service, the next available appointment is in a month. If you somehow get through, the practice is nice enough, but good luck actually seeing anyone.

    Dear Jeanne, Many thanks for your feedback. Online system is one way for request of appointment as this helps clinician to prioritise and sign post the issue in appropriate way. But if you are unable to do it as this is very popular and gets filled very quickly you can leave details with our receptionist and we would get back to you. If you still have any issues please speak to our team and we will get back to you. regards, Dr R

  4. Review titled Such a bad practice in recent years

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 23 November 2024

    I had filled out an e-consult form online, and had been emailed saying I have an appointment that same evening at the GP surgery. After arriving at the surgery, they had said I don't have an appointment and that is just the time that the doctor takes a look at the consultation form. I was confused as to why I had been told that it is in person, and why there was no mention of this being the time slot that the doctor looks at the consultation form. How is any patient meant to know this if there's no mention of it? There is a major communication problem here and it wastes a patient's time. Would not recommend registering to this GP practice.

  7. Review titled Very helpful Pharmacist

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 20 September 2024

    I was contacted for a blood test review by the pharmacist at the practice who was very helpful and gave me time to understand and consider my way forward. Think such a review should be done by the GP but appreciate the Pharmacist’s knowledge and skill.
