Review titled Excellent service by GP, Nurse and Receptionist
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Diane - Posted on 17 June 2024
An exceptional service this morning, with a very thorough consultation by GP, followed by a very helpful and accommodating receptionist who arranged an urgent appointment with nurse. Once again this medical practice has exceeded my expectations.

Review titled Battle to get repeat prescription items
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Derek Nichols - Posted on 18 April 2024
Imputing my repeat prescription in on 15/04/2024 System online says it has been sent to pharmacy I checked with pharmacy they have not received it phoned Surgery to be told it has been post dated for next Wednesday . The. Item I need is insulin for my diabetes I will run out over the weekend thus I am trying to sort out . Spoke to someone at surgery they don’t no why it has been post dated . With diabetes you do not know. How much you will use surgery totally unhelpful in the end they have issued a emergency prescription no one should have to beg to get items that are on a repeat prescription and have been for 30 years shocking

Review titled NHS meltdown
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 06 December 2022
My attempts to make any contact with a medical practitioner week commensing 13th November failed completely. E Consult was not available at all. Nor was I deemed by reception staff to warrant a call back. I was offered a bookable appointment for 15th December! I am again in the same position with E consult and access to a doctor to set up pain management. E consult capacity already reached at 8.40am! In addition to the anxiety and frustration, the reception staff have no empathy what so ever. ' there is a nationwide shortage of doctors' was the explanation today. It is not the fault of reception staff, but their attitude towards patient is ! It is completely unacceptable to have non medical staff making serious decisions about my ability to seek medical help and doing so in such an uncaring way. I believe Consett medical centre should be placed under some special measures as they are not capable of supporting their customers base safely. If a school was short of teachers to this degree, it would I'm sure be closed.

Review titled At a complete loss
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 25 November 2022
Was put in with a Locum doctor who started telling me I had a condition that Im quite confident I dont have, completely not linked to what I was there for , he could not help me, I don't feel he listened to or heard what I was telling him, no further forward after weeks of feeling unwell, pointless, seriously considering changing medical surgery and getting a second opinion

Review titled Terrible
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 18 October 2022
I have been on hold for an hour just to ask about a prescription, I went from 3rd to 1st and spent 45 minutes when there was no one ahead of me. It’s ridiculous I have an appointment for next month that’s the best they can do for someone to get seen. It’s outrageous and disgraceful, no wonder there’s so many people complaining

What has happened to this surgery? 2 years since i last visited, but found on my recent visit,receptionist very loud and rude,and one other staff member leaving a lot to be desired when it came to cleanliness,less than satisfied by the treatment i got,will try my best to avoid going to this place in the future,trying to gain access to see a GP ? probably easier to get an appointment to see the Pope !
