The lady doctor I saw was very helpful, professional and understanding. She listened to me and asked questions to get to the problem.

I have spoken with a doctor on a number of occasions now, and she has taken action on all occasions to try and sort out the issues I currently have. I am very pleased with her assistance

Review titled Caring Doctor
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by MR JOHN F DEMPSTER - Posted on 30 September 2024
As always my registered Dr was attentive, helpful and full of warmth. Since her arrival, approximately 5 month ago my respect for her has grown on each visit. Getting her as my new Dr was the best thing in my 5 years at the surgery.

Review titled Time to change surgeries
Rated 1 star out of 5

My husband has prostate cancer the consultant prescribed a medication to be taken asap. We were told the surgery would receive the letter at the same time as my husband. Which was last Wednesday, so we rang to check they had received it, oh no Wednesday afternoon they were closed for staff training. Rang Thursday. Closed again for staff training. Friday rang again, told they hadn't received it, we read out the consultants request. Husband was told to take this letter to the surgery. When he arrived they said they had found It. They had marked it it urgent should be at our pharmacy later that day. This didn't happen, rang on Monday this hasn't been processed yet, hopefully will be done today or tomorrow. Is this acceptable I don't think so. Stress levels through the roof.

Review titled Horrible practice
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 19 February 2024
Getting through to the reception to book appointment is extremely ridiculous. Finally, if you get through and you have appointment, arriving on time for the appointment waiting at the reception, and then they are told that they are late for their appointment and sending back home with small child. But when someone is waiting for the doctor to be seen half an hour 20 minutes or even more it’s fine. I feel really sorry for the ladies working at the reception because everything is going on them. Doctors are rude ignoring symptoms. ( not everyone) My son has been seen by one of them with high temperature, coughing, sore throat . Being sent home later at home, he had problems with breathing and I end up on emergency department. He refused to open his mouth because of stress . he’s coughing, no slipping and he’s having problem with eating for month. No help from anyone.

The receptionist dealt with my query, telephoned me back as promised and organised for my prescription to be collected from the chemist later the same day.
