Review titled Follow up after hospital discharge
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 02 April 2025
I had need to ask for support from District nurse whilst recovery at home after major surgery. Staff were very helpful. I also had a call from pharmacy to review new medication prescribed and explained side effects to be aware of. This reduced my concerns and aids recovery.

Review titled Didn't listen to a word I said.
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 13 April 2025
Had an out of hours appointment that lasted less than 3 minutes. Doctor didn't listen to what I had to say and had already assumed my problem when I sat in the chair. I was trying to discuss an allergic reaction but got told I had dry skin and he spoke over me when I tried to show the photos that caused me to contact 111 to ask if I pay for prescriptions. I was asked 2 questions before he told me appointment was over, have a good day. I've never felt so disrespected or little at doctors before and cried whilst leaving. Wouldn't recommend anyone who has an issues they're genuinely concerned about to attend this clinic. Have had to contact 111 again for more help and pharmacist said what he prescribed wouldn't alleviate any of symptoms, just left me feeling degraded like he didn't even care and just wanted me out the door.

Review titled Action needed
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Karen Bond - Posted on 02 April 2025
Trying to book appointment is horrendous and has caused considerable upset. Finally had to drive to gp in tears to get my father seen. The receptionist was amazing with face to face support - thank you and service when seeing dr was good but practice is now virtually impossible to contact. When they answer phone after long queue you are told to go to website. Website suggested concerns/type of illness do not fit and there is no where to explain your need for support. My parents have no access to internet and it appears to have cut them off for support. Website needs urgent changing so you can explain concerns not try to fit a drop down of suggested issues.

Review titled Good care when you can get it.
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Kathleen Cleaver - Posted on 11 March 2025
Great care once you see a dr. I've been trying for 2 days online but unable to get an appointment. I also had a probelm with meds and I went down to tell the receptionist she was really good got it sorted with any hassle she spoke to the dr. got my medication changed and then called me to tell me the update and to collect my meds her name is sophie. So thank you sophie for sorting it all with no probelms.

Review titled Pleasant receptionist
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 03 March 2025
Person who called back a couple of hours later, after being told by the answering service that I was 30th in the queue at 10.30am was nice, pleasant and helpful. However, being given a 2 hour window for a telephone appointment I find ridiculous. If it was face to face I would have to be there at a specific time or miss the appointment.

I had problems accessing app and online appointment services. Lady working on reception read out the whole appointment form so I was able to secure an appointment. I really appreciated her assistance and time.
