Review titled Hard to get through
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 07 October 2024
I spent ages on the phone trying to arrange an appointment only to be told to call back the following day as they only offer same day appointments. So frustrating. The askmyGP app didn't help, just going round in circles.

Review titled long wait times
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by carrol west - Posted on 01 August 2024
I was given an appointment with a locum doctor on Wednesday 31st July which I do not really like to do as I like to see the same doctor (I used to see a permanent doctor prior to her retirement). My appointment was for 11.50am. I was eventually seen at 12.40ish after sitting in the waiting room for nearly one hour! I did go to reception to ask what was going on where I was told the doctor was extremely busy as she had seen a very sick patient. Not a problem although I think reception staff could have let everyone sitting in the surgery know what the situation was as it seemed there was only one doctor on duty! After seeing the locum doctor I came away very frustrated as my problem had not been resolved. I will attempt to make another appointment when I have the time to see a doctor who is permanent to the practice.

Review titled Really Informative practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Technocrat - Posted on 02 May 2024
The update of this site since March is simply amazing. So much more information available and so much easier to navigate. The new appointment system is far better targetted and provides a more logical approach. Just taking calls and booking appointments is wasteful whereas this allows us to place an enqirey to ascertain whether we need an appointment or whether there is a straight forward solution of which we can be advised.

Review titled Efficient, professional and friendly
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Jake Turnbull - Posted on 03 April 2024
Had my annual bloods and general check up today. The HCA was excellent, and spotted something that I hadn't really thought was an issue, but which is now getting investigated. Really grateful for her diligence in spotting something that I didn't go in with the intention of talking about.

Review titled Excellent practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5

Just used askmyGp online questions which I found easy to use. My question was not urgent so requested phone reply from one of the Doctors , which I received within 12hours , my question was answered to my satisfaction, I will use this method again as I found you have time to gather your thoughts and write them down to be able to answer doctors questions as some time when visiting doctors surgery you forget most of what you were going to ask. I think this is excellent idea. You can request face to face when using the app .

Review titled Unusually Poor
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 11 April 2024
Had a consultation with a GP today, aside from the audible sighs over the telephone throughout the conversation, was ultimately made to feel as though the interaction was an inconvenience. Condescending approaches don't work in healthcare. It's such a shame as the practice has been fantastic on all other fronts over the last decade for us. Genuinely sad to have written this review.

Review titled Telephone contact
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 14 February 2024
I strongly recommend that the telephone message tells callers how many people are waiting in the queue. Having held the line for over 10 minutes before giving up on getting an operator, I would have really appreciated knowing how many calls were to be answered before mine.

Review titled Efficient practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Claire - Posted on 22 November 2023
I registered with the practice in 2021. I was invited for a routine healthcheck. I contacted the surgery by phone & was given an appointment that afternoon with a nurse who was easy to chat to & made it all very informal. Routine bloods were taken & an abnormality was found. I was given clear information in writing & a prescription provided. I later contacted the practice via the website for another matter & my online query was dealt with very quickly. Again a positive outcome. Last week I needed to make an appointment & went via the NHS app & had an apointment within 2 days. The GP I saw listened to my concerns & agreed they are valid & is referring me for further investigation. All of these contacts with the surgery have been since April 2021. I can not fault the professionalism & kindness of all staff I have come into contact with. Thank you all.
