Review titled Extremely Difficult to get an Prostate Test
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 14 November 2024
I called to book a prostate test as I am over 50. I was advised I first need to book a consultation and then a test could be booked. The next telephone consultation was over 3 weeks away! Firstly why do I need a consultation to book a test I am eligible for, secondly why does it take over 3 weeks to have an unnecessary 2 minute telephone conversation? No wonder the NHS is under staffed and need more money.

Review titled Chalgrove & Watlington Surgeries

Thank you for your feedback. The clinical team at our surgeries follow NHS guidance to discuss a prostate test with a patient before a test is booked. There are several reasons why a clinician needs to have a consultation with a patient before arranging a PSA test. We are experiencing high levels of patient demand which is why there is a 3 week wait for a telephone appointment. Our clinical team works hard to deliver a safe, caring and effective service to our patients at all times.
