Dear Mrs Ellis Thank you for your compliment for the nurse and I am sorry that you had a difficulty using the new pod at the surgery. We have introduced the pods to allow patients to come and take their blood pressure reading at the surgery at their convenience. I will ensure your feedback is passed to the management. If you do get stuck in the future then please feel free to ask a nurse you are seeing for assistance, or alternatively speak to one of the reception team members at the front-desk. Kind Regards Piotr Pacych Patient Experience Team

Thank you for leaving your review of your experience in accessing a GP appointment. Depending on the type of appointment you are requesting it takes 5 working days for the duty doctor to review routine appointment requests and same day GP appointment requests are usually reviewed on the day. I am sorry that we had not met your expectations on this occassion. I do not have direct access to your medical record to advise you on what exactly happened, however should you wish for me to look into this further for you then please feel free to email me at hnyicb-ny.haxbypatientexperience@nhs.net with your details. Kind Regards Piotr Pacych Patient Experience Team

Review titled Good Practice
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Julia S - Posted on 10 August 2023
I felt the need to give a good review about this surgery. On the last three occasions I have needed this service within the last year, I have always been able to speak to the receptionist without waiting too long in a queue and they are always polite and efficient. A follow up triage phone call has usually been no more than one hour later and if required have been given an appointment that same day. I have found the doctors very thorough and didn’t feel rushed given a plan of action that will help my health issues. Even better now that I can receive a text message regarding test results and any further action. In the last 2 years the surgery seems to have improved in all areas. I think the staff deserve some recognition for all their hard work.

Review titled Lack of care
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 07 July 2023
Had an appointment 4/7/23 and was given a follow up appointment for 7/7/23. Arrived on time for my appointment to be told it was a mistake, it was a phone call not a face to face appointment and someone would call that day. On the NHS app it said 4.20 pm but nobody called. The lack of care at this surgery is appalling. As this is Friday I will now have to wait until Monday to get any answers.

Review titled Missed appointments
Rated 1 star out of 5
by David Bell - Posted on 20 April 2023
Been waiting 7 weeks for a routine appointment but in the meantime for the last two weeks suffering with pain in my left side and lower back, need advise about what painkillers are suitable as l am on some regular meds that react lberprofen ect. Did the online thing and got a text saying telephone appointment Tuesday afternoon. On my app it gave a time of 13.20 to 13.40checked my mobile at 1 15 and realised l had two missed calls at 10.58 from doctors surgery so waited until 2.00 then rang them to be told l would be getting a call sometime that afternoon. No call but now showing a missed appointment on my record due to calling in the morning instead of the afternoon apparently its my fault for not answering the phone. I was home from 11.15 for the rest of the day mobile and landlines both show missed calls just before 11 am.

Review titled Poor mental health support
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Rachel Jameson-Firman - Posted on 13 July 2024
I had a mental health crisis over some months beginning in April 2023, I had a good experience with one of the GPs to begin with, but my treatment thereafter was very poor, from the reception staff, to the other GPs in general. I was told that I did not need an urgent appointment and that I would be given a routine appointment when one became available (however, no one could tell me when that would be!) I was in extreme distress and both my husband and myself were at our wits end. I eventually called in by chance at The Ellis Centre, was seen by a very kind receptionist who recognised my extreme condition and I was seen the following morning by a Consultant Psychiatrist who was able to commence appropriate treatment and medication. I have since made a full recovery but sadly no thanks to Haxby Group Practice. I have considered changing my GP surgery but thankfully have not needed to attend any further. I feel that as soon as someone presents with mental health issues, including extreme anxiety and depression, everyone just assumes that it is a character flaw. I have however been a health care professional since 1981, I have had mental health struggles over the years, as a consequence of historical trauma, but have always recovered and returned to work each time. Sad to say, the treatment I received is not the kind of care I would wish to give to my patients.

Review titled Appointments not available at all!!
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 15 May 2023
I have now been waiting nearly 3 months to get an appointment as I am meant to have regular monthly appointments due to my condition. Suffering with extreme pain and tried to get an urgent appointment only to be told that I am only going to get a regular routine appointment. I am seriously considering making a formal complaint to the NHS regarding this as my condition worsening means I have to be seen as soon as possible. I struggle to walk now and still can’t be seen at all. Ridiculous!!

Review titled How long is a piece of string?
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 20 March 2023
Contacted them 02/03 and my reply was I needed an appointment and had to wait for one to become available, it's been 3 weeks! It seems I could be waiting 1 day or 1 year for an appointment! I never had a problem before my practice merged into this I don't even know what doctors practice out of there. There's no personalisation....sad times.
