  1. Review titled Very supportive staff

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by A.T. - Posted on 29 July 2024

    The staff at Burlington PCT have been very supportive over several years, helping me to cope with my long-term condition and the side-effects of treatment (sometimes, it seems to me, despite the limitations of inflexible IT systems and the bureaucratic box-ticking required by DoH). The Health and Wellbeing Coach has been particularly helpful being able to get to know me better over a longer period of time than GPs have the opportunity to do these days, taking a more holistic view of my situation and supporting me in so many ways. I have found it easier to cope this year than before due to their help and don’t know how I would manage now without it, thank you.

  4. Review titled Unhelpful and rude reception staff

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Stephen D - Posted on 08 May 2024

    Standards have slipped abruptly since covid. The reception staff are rude and unhelpful. It’s nigh on impossible to see a doctor. I have called two days running to try and get a telephone appointment, reception inform me that as my issue isn’t an emergency I need to try again the following day. What a waste of time!

    Dear Stephen I am sorry that you feel standards have slipped since covid. In order to mange the demand on our services and ensure that patient needs are matched with the most applicable clinician, it does mean that we do need to triage our calls and manage calls in the best way possible. At times, due to high demand and changes to the clinical rota, it is necessary to limit our service to urgent/emergency requests only. I hope that you have since been able to access our team? Please let me know if this is not the case and I will look into this for you. My apologies that you have not experienced the expected service from us. Kind regards Sharon Meers Practice Manager

    I was in despair after leaving psychiatric hospital and being put in to a hotel. Dr helped me overcome negative thoughts and spoke to council and got me some where safe to stay

  6. Review titled Excellent care

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 11 January 2024

    I’ve been seen by the nursing team for 18 months. They have done above and beyond to help with my issue. Trying every treatment on offer to them and getting advice from other specialists. They have supported me not only with my issue but also emotionally in what has been a relentless and painful time. Unfortunately I have to move on to another area of care now but am eternally grateful for everything the nursing team have done for me as well as the GP and reception staff who have assisted over the last 18 months.

  8. Review titled New Telephone System

    Rated 3 stars out of 5

    by Paul - Posted on 18 October 2023

    I just want to say how impressed I am with your new telephone system. The call back facility means that contact with you is considerably less stressful than previously. Now, there is no need to spend a lot of time re-dialling before getting a ringing tone and then even more time waiting to get to the top of the queue. Your operatives are as helpful and considerate as ever. This new system certainly gets a 10 out of 10 from me. Thank you.

  9. Review titled Covid / flue jab

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    by Angela Cooper - Posted on 05 October 2023

    Very quick and pain free. Husband was reluctant to have his jabs, nurse kindly went into car park and talked him into having them. Great service in my opinion.

    After my call a doctor phoned me back after about an hour, discussed my problem with me then booked me in for a face to face 3 hours later, which is a great service Thanks to all the Burlington team.
