Review titled Concern about lesions
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Clare - Posted on 09 August 2024
I sent photos of skin lesions on 25/7 and had photos taken by a HCA on 30/7. A doctor texted me on 31/7 to say they"d forwarded the pics to the hospital and that I would hear news within a few days. It is now 9/8 and I am becoming increasingly anxious about the lesions (one is rather itchy) yet I have heard nothing from the doctor or the hospital.

Had call from doctor saying I needed a ecg for my referral to Worcester Weight Management Service. I emailed wwms directly, and they responded quite quickly saying a ecg was not required . Please can doctors get their facts straight.

Review titled Positive experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Elwyn Hughson - Posted on 06 September 2024
I have attended three appointments in 2024 to support my elderly father who has needed a face to face appointment to investigate current health issues. On each appointment, he has been seen by the same Nurse practitioner and I would like to place on record that my father and myself have been really impressed with the knowledge and professionalism that she has demonstrated. I was also very impressed with the way that she put my father at ease and the empathy and respect that was shown to him. Even though I understand the time pressures that medical staff in general are under, she did not rush the appointment and gave my father adequate time to process and answer questions so that she was able to give considered advice and make appropriate decisions. This was really appreciated, Thank you.

Rated 1 star out of 5
by Ryan James - Posted on 06 June 2024
Appaling service as ever rang 8.00 Today we are trialing a new system you cant rung up to make an appointment you must do it online... eventually talk to the receptionist go through all my conditions ... they wont answer your questions they wont make you an apointment ... transfered me to reception supervisor who was so rude talking over you not willing to help at all.. its like they have been programmed to be as unhelpful as possible.... the problem starts with reception im sure the doctors are great..Although i wouldnt know as cant get to see one... another glowing 1 star review for hmg...its about time they are removed as unfit for purpose

Thank you for providing your feedback. We find the comments that you have left on the NHS Choices website to be unreasonable. I have reviewed our records and I note that you contacted us at around 8.00am and your request was triaged by the Shift Lead GP the same morning. When you advised that you disagreed with the decision, you were put into a Duty slot to be seen. I have listened to all call recordings and disagree that the Reception Supervisor was rude and not willing to help you; they tried their best to explain the process and due to being unable to reach a resolution, terminated the call. We feel that you were dealt with in an appropriate time frame and we would advise that if you do not feel this was the case, you are able to choose to register to an alternative GP practice.

I emailed with concerns about side effects from an increase in medication. A pharmacist phoned me back in under 1 hour & we made a plan to resolve the issue. Fantastic. Thank you

Review titled Completely awful practice
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Leighton Marsh - Posted on 23 May 2024
Trying to sort an appointment for myself regarding an autism assessment, make the appointment online, sent a link to my phone. Follow the link, get no where. Try to contact hmg, no answer. This has been the result for as long as I have been attached to hmg. Never, ever seen my own doctor and they have lost my documents from myself which came from dvla. Absolutely the worst surgery I have ever been linked to. I will now try, if possible, to join a different surgery as hmg is completely ineffective. We are supposed to make things easier with new technology and going forward into the future, but this practice has gone completely backwards. There should be a simple method of calling the receptionist, making an appointment and attending the appointment but that just isn't the case anymore. Completely backwards, far too stressful and completely ineffective.

Review titled Abysmal
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Bear - Posted on 08 May 2024
Tried ringing reception from 3 onwards and each time I was told it was full to capacity and then hung up. I didn’t want to make an appointment, I just wanted to ask a question to the reception team but every time I rang the system would hang up on me. Just a truly broken system.

Review titled Great pharmacy team and women’s health support
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Rebecca - Posted on 02 May 2024
Thanks to your pharmacist for helping so promptly with my prescription problem yesterday. Extremely helpful and much appreciated. Also like continuity provided with women’s health appointments and how they are managed. Where I find the new system for requesting appointments online a bit of a faff, I do rate the prompt nature of response to those I have submitted. Thank you
