  1. Review titled Disappointed

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 04 July 2024

    I had a telephone call booked from my doctor this morning, it took 2weeks to book this call, unfortunately I missed the call, I tried to phone back immediately but it took ages before I could get through. Receptionist sent a note through to the doctor that I would appreciate she tried again as I really needed to speak to her. Unfortunately she didn’t call back, I have now tried to get another call booked from her only to be told she has no appointments for the next few weeks and is then on holiday, which of course she is entitled too. So because I missed her one call I am now having to wait at least a month. The time is approx for these calls and I did try to have my phone with me but missed this call.

  2. Review titled Curates egg?

    Rated 3 stars out of 5

    by Curates egg - Posted on 16 July 2024

    Had telephone appointment which occurred at time promised, but I had had to wait 3 weeks from first contact to get this, despite having been asked by the surgery to make an appointment to discuss test results. Dr was courteous, efficient , knowledgeable, honest and helpful, having listened to a rather complex set of issues. She appeared open to discussion where appropriate despite her busy schedule. I am left relieved and reassured to have a plan for the way forward but unhappy about the delay in getting an appointment which seems to have become the norm. The delay meant some of the test results were less relevant as well adding to my anxiety.

  3. Review titled Fabulous service

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by C David - Posted on 27 July 2024

    Due to the nature of my problem, I visited the practice to make an appointment and was met with a very helpful, accommodating and friendly receptionist. This was followed by a punctual phone call from the GP and wheels were put in motion immediately. I have always had the most accommodating, helpful and friendly response from all the reception staff and I thank them for being so.

  5. Review titled Great Surgery

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Glenda Chase - Posted on 08 June 2024

    I saw a lovely nurse for my blood test, she was very friendly chatty and looked as if she really enjoyed her work. Extremely professional, an all round good experience. I would also like to add that the receptionist was friendly and very approachable.

  7. Review titled Steroid Injection

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    by Fiona - Posted on 18 June 2024

    I was able to get a steroid injection at the surgery as opposed to waiting for orthopaedic choice and having to travel a considerable distance. The doctor was punctual, professional and very considerate and administered the knee injection with minimal discomfort and was amazingly effective at distracting you from the injection. Thank you!

  10. Review titled Can never get an appointment

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Darren - Posted on 15 May 2024

    Never any appointments. Just tried to book my 6 year old daughter for an ankle injury but all I was offered was a telephone call (Because it can be examined and she can show where it hurts over the telephone??). Our son was so bad 18 months ago he spent 2 weeks in hospital, but still he couldn't get seen here. We were moved here from Lowford 2 years ago (Where we always had appointments) with the promise of an improved service but quite frankly it's been terrible. The staff are nice but they are put under terrible pressure by the practice having inadequate resources.
