Review titled Good text message service which could be improved
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 22 September 2023
The practise has a text message service for pathology results. The results are received promptly and this is a good process. The text messages however do not reference the test conducted, if more than one test was carried out then you do not know which test the results are for. If the text messages could include the name of the test that would be a huge improvement

Review titled Poor Reception service
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by M Chell - Posted on 25 September 2023
Having called today at 8:00 and selected call back, received call at 9:30 to be told no appointments of any kind, will have to call back tomorrow. Trying to reorder prescription for tablets, had called Friday last week missed 1 call because I could not get to phone in time, rang back to be told a call back would be made, reception informed me that a call had been made at 16:11, that was a lie. We have a call logger and no incoming calls had been received at that time. Why have a call back system that does not allow appointment to be made on the same day, instead have to try again another day, this could go on forever and never speak to any body.

Review titled Shambolic system
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 31 May 2023
Following blood tests I received an email with a link to book an appointment to discuss my long term condition. I followed the link, chose a time and date and was allocated an ‘in person’ appointment with a Dr. I checked in using the screen at the surgery just before my appointment time which was 10:00 today. After waiting 30 minutes, I was called over and informed that my appointment was with the pharmacist, he doesn’t do face to face appointments and I was next on his list for a telephone call. I did let them know how unhappy I was, to no avail. My call came at 12:00. Initially the gent didn’t appear to know why he was calling me. Luckily as the call progressed we discussed my current medication regime and blood results. During the call he told me that the Drs wanted me to have follow up with the nurse and that the reception staff should have let me know that this needed to happen when I called for my blood results. They hadn’t. He apologised for the mistake regarding the face to face appointment and assured me that he has spoken to the reception staff and it should not happen again. I have very little confidence left in Carlton Street as a surgery and this is a shame as at one time it was a decent place.

Review titled Absolutely terrible practice
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 04 May 2023
Called to book a review for my prescription as it couldnt be reissued automatically surprise surprise no appointments available for 3 weeks and then was told its not an emergency until you run out then we will get you some meds issued anyway so call back daily to see if you can get an appointment surely this is a total waste of my time/your resource and NHS money, you need to look at your processes so when people need a review you automatically book them in early enough that they do not run out of meds. Really poor service yet again from this surgery.

Review titled no medication since January
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Mr Michael J Kelly - Posted on 26 May 2023
I have high colestrol and blood pressure plus heart disease I'm on medication, but have received my statines since january. Ive had a blood test and been told my colestrole is higher. I need another test to see if its come down. How can it come down when I don't receive my meds. My chemist says it's the doctors my doctors say it's the chemist. The chemist has given me the email which shows they asked for the meds on the 24th May. These meds are to stop you having a heart attack.

Review titled Awful healthcare - avoid
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 10 May 2023
Used 111 over the weekend and fairly promptly got a course of antibiotics for a UTI for my unwell grandmother. Told by the 111 GP to contact our own surgery after the weekend and give a urine sample as in over 65’s a urine dip is not reliable and urine sample is useful to identify bugs. Went to the surgery today and they told us they couldn’t give me a bottle as they weren’t the ones who requested it? I don’t know how they expect us to magically retrieve a urine sample bottle from a telephone healthcare service? Reception staff have no understanding or compassion.
