Review titled Hit and Miss, Recently a Miss
Rated 3 stars out of 5

When you have multiple chronic illnesses, navigating your care can be scary. I've found the staff generally to be excellent and attentive when you can see them. I was in and out a lot last year due to unexplained massive weight loss and pain, and they were excellent, with prompt referrals and treatment plans. However, today is the second time this year that a prescription advised by a specialist consultant has had to be stopped due to unavailability of appointments. The first time was in summer when I was told I had to book a medication review and they wouldn't issue the medication for my essential tremor, to then be told for three weeks straight every morning that it's a routine appointment and there are none available before I gave up and just accepted that my quality of life will have to suffer and I will have to just deal with increased injuries. Today it's a six week wait for a blood pressure reading which means I have to come off the pill that is managing the endometriosis that has previously hospitalised me. I am on immunosuppressive medication which means I cannot risk falling pregnant too, so it's a double hit for me. I was advised there is a patient pod for blood pressure readings, but because of my height it involves raising my arm above my shoulder so is inaccurate if it measures a reading at all, which I have fed back to them every time I have used the pod in the past. Whenever I call for an appointment there are none available. I am told to use e-consult only to find out once the call is ended that the service is unavailable. Surely the staff on the phone should know this?

Review titled Avoid
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Trish Hoad - Posted on 15 August 2024
Did e booking asked for appointment with practice nurse had phone call to say had appointment went for appointment and booked in only to see it was with dr went to reception to see why it was with dr and was told practice nurse couldn’t deal with my problem In fact I knew she could. I said I required to see a female dr was told I would need to ring the following day I refused as want my fault they had made a mistake and not informed me of the change eventually told I would be seen by female doctor that afternoon only to turn up to see that I was to see the practice nurse. I have never come across such a bunch of incompetent receptionist in my life. Practise nurse was as always lovely. For goodness sake pull your socks up and do your jobs properly it’s what your paid to do

Review titled Great Nurse
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Sharron - Posted on 01 August 2024
Attended yesterday for blood test. The Nurse I saw was very polite and curious. She had time to listen while I explained what had been happening with my kidney dialysis. What I was annoyed at was the length of time I had to wait to book the appointment when I had just spoken to a Dr and was told by him to ring the surgery to book the appointment.

Hi Sharron, Thank you for your feedback, it is greatly appreciated. Your feedback will also be passed onto our nursing team. Unfortunately, our phlebotomy clinics do get full very quickly, however, we also offer blood test appointments at our extended access service on an evening and weekend. Many Thanks Bridge View Medical Group
