Review titled Extremely bad practice
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 28 July 2024
The Brooklands medical center is completely out of order. There is no way to make an appointment with a doctor. Only by phone in the morning at 8:00, but after 30 minutes of waiting everything is fully booked. What does this center do? Rude and indifferent staff at the reception. Never helpful. How can I get an appointment to the doctor? How can I make an appointment if I work from 8:00? What do I pay taxes for? Disgusting medical center. Never any help.

Dear patient My name is Geraldine Jackson and I am the Practice Manager at Brooklands Medical Practice. I am very sorry that you have had such a bad experience in trying to book an appointment but I honestly do not recognise your experience as being typical at this practice. I would like very much to understand what has gone wrong, so please get in touch with me with your details and I will be happy to investigate this further. Can I please verify that you are a patient at Brooklands Medical Practice in South Manchester or whether you are a patient at Brooklands Medical Centre in Milton Keynes. I look forward to hearing from you. Geraldine Jackson Practice Manager Brooklands Medical Practice

Review titled Disappointed
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 10 May 2024
Made an appointment to see a doctor as I was concerned about my blood pressure and heart condition on 9 May 2024 to be seen on 16 May 2024. Received phone call on 10th May 2024 cancelling that appointment as Dr wasn't working that day. Offered next appointment for 29th May 2024 which is totally unacceptable due to my concerns.

Dear patient Thank you for your feedback. My name is Geraldine Jackson and I am the Practice Manager at Brooklands Medical Practice. I am very sorry that you were unable to book a replacement appointment for the one that needed to be cancelled within the timeframe you wanted. We do experience periods of very high demand for appointments, which sometimes means that we cannot offer appointments as soon as we would like to. I am very sorry that this has impacted you on this occasion but if you would like to pass on your details separately to me on g.jackson2@nhs.net, I would be happy to check whether there are any options which may be suitable for you.

Review titled Rude Receptionist
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 02 March 2024
I tried to book an appointment and the receptionist was incredibly rude and quite unhelpful. She couldn't find my name on the system and tried to blame me. Turns out she obviously was incapable of running a simple search on a system and found it in the end without apologising. The audacity to be rude when you can't operate a computer is laughable. There's also a complain about a receptionist about a year ago and I'm guessing is the same person. I'm not shocked at all that she's still here with the same attitude.

I am really sorry to hear about your experience. None of our receptionists should be behaving in the way that you describe. I would be grateful if you could contact me separately on g.jackson2@nhs.net with more details of when this occurred and I would be happy to investigate this further. Thank you for posting this review so that I am aware where we fall short of the service that we strive to provide. Geraldine Jackson Practice Manager

Review titled Awful receptionist
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 05 July 2023
I made a simple call just asking about a medication that they had refused to give me which helps with my epilepsy. The receptionist was rude, kept talking over me and not helpful at all. Basically blaming me for the whole ordeal. She’s rude and unprofessional and shouldn’t even be working a job that need compassion and care because she is none of those things.

Rated 2 stars out of 5

I rang the other day for an appointment about suffering with anxiety and panic attacks was told no one was available not even a phone call with a doctor until 26th April. Iv filled for fit note and still havent heard. When you ring theres never any appointments or your always on hold theres been time when iv rang for an appointment and have the phone put down on me many occasions. Wouldnt recommend this GP at all. Horrible suffering with mental health and being turned away.

Review titled First impressions
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anthony - Posted on 16 August 2022
Went here for first time today and what a refreshing change from the last GP practice I was registered with. Firstly, though there was a queue when trying to book an appointment, I wasn't kept waiting long. On visiting, the doctor I saw gave the impression I wasn't wasting his time, he was in a rush and had too many patients to see. So first impressions are very good.
