Review titled Receptionist incompetence wasted over an hour of my time
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 28 June 2024
I had a physio appointment scheduled for 4pm 28th June, I arrived at 4pm and told the receptionist my full name twice and why I was here, she sent another patient who arrived after me to my appointment, she then realises her mistake 20 mins later and tells me I’ll be seen next, I wait a further 25mins only to have another patient who arrives after me take my appointment slot again. I call the receptionist to ask why this has happened, she says she left a “sticky note”, and asks if I wish to reschedule, after I’ve already wasted an hour of my time, I’ve left work to attend, this is ridiculous. How hard is it to assign a patient to their allotted appointment slot when it’s the main task of your job role. I suggest you implement some sort of automated check in system for patients when they arrive to prevent something like this happening again.

Review titled Unhappy with receptionists manner and tone
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 19 December 2023
Unhappy yet again your receptionist staff have no mannerisms are unsure what the waiting times are ask to take a seat and you don’t get told that doctors running behind you ask for a call back but they automatically assume appointments for a face to face never call you and when asked to speak to a manager they ask you put the issue in writing the the receptionist need training how to speak to patients in a polite professional manner . They need people skills introduce training for admin front facing staff and too many agency doctors who are no help

Review titled Great practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5

I was seen by my doctor who advised me on further treatment. He was able to get an urgent appointment for me. I have always had faith in this practice, and hope to continue doing so. I know it isn't as easy as before lockdown but I am grateful I am with a good practice I can rely on for help, support and treatment.
