Review titled Attentive practice
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Nani M - Posted on 27 July 2024
I was extremely pleased to receive a callback to my call recently which saved me staying a queuing to wait for my call. The staff were then helpful to book me an appointment with clinical pharmacist and when I came to the surgery, I was called up straightaway and was cared for attentively. Thank you!

Review titled Pets get treated better
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 07 June 2024
A family member booked in to see the GP via the receptionist regarding health issues. The doctor was not helpful and spoke so rudely accusing of wasting their time. There was no empathy and the doctor did not want to listen to the needs of the patient , then marched into the reception area to tell the receptionist off, for booking the appointment in the first place in front of a crowded waiting room. Complete waste of a morning. No professionalism shown. Stay away from this practice

Never get an appointment. People on the reception dont talk nicely and they never help or advice to understand the situation. I will never recommend this surgery to anyone.

Review titled Great service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Niki - Posted on 02 March 2024
I called up the surgery in October to book an appointment to get a blood test. When I phoned up I was informed about all the different methods for of booking an appointment, and a really good system - booking via eConsult. I found this so easy and got a confirmed appointment within 2 days at a time convenient to me. Haven't seen any other GP offer this so was very happy! When I met with the doctor, they were very helpful and I was given the time and opportunity to explain all my health concerns and the doctor gave me all the blood tests I wanted, so I was very happy with the appointment. Reception staff walked me through how to link my NHS app to my GP records, and now I can see my results on my phone. I got my results within 2 days and was personally contacted with a follow up appointment for one of my results and was able to speak to the doctor again regarding treatment. Continuity of care is really good and the service has been great for me. Thank you to everyone at Goodmayes Medical Centre!

Review titled Terrible practice
Rated 1 star out of 5

It is has become extremely impossible to get through to the surgery on their phone lines. Having been in the practice I have witness staff chatting with colleagues whilst the phone is ringing & when they are on the phone they keep you on hold whilst trying to deal with a patient waiting at the reception window. The practice should take on more staff to manage the reception desk and more than one phone line. I waited 35 minutes before my call was answered. I have again tried calling and made 200 attempts the line is constantly engaged

Dear Sir/Madam I am sorry to hear that you had an unpleasant experience. As most of our staff are new, when they got queries, they are checking with their colleagues as they don't want to give wrong information and we are in the process of recruiting more staff. Regarding phone lines, we are trying our best to answer all calls and we have queuing system in place when handling calls. We are offering e-consultation, online appointments and pre booking appointments services. Can you please contact me directly through surgery reception so that I would be happy to discuss your complaints. kind regards Sumathi Sundarrajan
