  1. Review titled Very helpful staff and good quality of care & support

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Julie Ann Emerson - Posted on 14 June 2023

    I was seen today ( and last week) by the nurse specialist for asthma. I have only just decided asthma and have had a terrible three weeks of acute dyspnoea with wheezing, low oxygen saturation levels and coughing constantly. I have been started on medication and am feeling so much better but the most important thing for me is the reassurance from the nurse and total understanding of asthma. I feel so lucky to have got the support and guidance after three weeks of struggling with 2 A&E visits & having paramedics out to administer nebulisers. I feel safe again and have a contact in place should I deteriorate again. I’m being investigated with spirometry & supervised with peak flow recordings. To suddenly develop an acute asthma attack at the age of 62 is very frightening indeed. I am so grateful for the expertise of the nurse who is overseeing my care.

    I cannot praise the staff enough for their commitment, empathy and general care. They have been a godsend to my family especially my daughter.

  4. Review titled Turned Away When I Asked For Help

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 21 January 2023

    I went down today to my medical centre for help, I use the nhs rarely and this was on the direct instruction of my midwife, as she had concerns and thought wise if I saw a doctor. I was turned away without a second thought and told either come back Monday, call 111 or go to a&e, I miscarried later today after a 5 hour A&E wait. My husband and I are very upset that a receptionist can make these sorts of decisions that affect peoples lives. Thanks for you help, this is what I pay our national insurance for!

  5. Review titled Poor service

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Mira Gadevska - Posted on 08 December 2022

    Trying to book follow up appointment for my husband today. Stood up at 8 am outside in -3 C to be told system is down and they don't know when will be working. From 8.30am constantly busy on the phone and managed to get on the queue at 9.35 to be 19 and connected around 10.00 to be told " No appointments. Ring tomorrow". After 9 hours in A&E last week and antibiotic treatment and GP phone consultation on 05/12/22 and been told by GP to review today to assess for need of further treatment and fitness for work. Been told phone 111 or go to your walk-in centre. Have no words to express my disappointment.

    Was trying to call and get appointment to see doctor. Called 72 times in 25 minutes. After finaly been answered got cold answer no apt left call back tomorrow at 8am. Hmmmm...... think this what I was doing past 25 minutes. When you get there doctors are truly amazing and I do love this surgery. But maybe they need more stuff for morning call answering.

  8. Review titled Warm and friendly receptionist

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    by Melanie O'Shea - Posted on 31 October 2022

    When I attended the surgery today at 3.15pm on 31st October I observed great work by the reception on duty. She was calm and dealt with everyone in a warm manner validating the concerns that were raised. She was very warm and really listened to people. Not an easy job but she made it look easy!

    I have a problem with my left foot as a result of breaks to small bones on several occasions. My foot and ankle were swollen and painful. The examination was thorough and I was given advice which has helped. The doctor was very kind and reassuring

  10. Review titled Pleasant Practice

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Roger Hull - Posted on 14 September 2022

    Having moved quite often recently I went to the surgery and judging by past experience this was by far the best, nothing seemed too much trouble and the whole visit was great. Thank you so much.
