  1. Review titled Great practice

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anita Pettitt - Posted on 17 October 2023

    Today I had to contact the surgery after hearing horror stories lately you dread phoning! However, I phoned at 8am and by 8.10 a pleasant answer to my call (especially when you don’t feel well) I was offered a phone call or face to face appointment within seconds! I chose a call! By 10am I was contacted and my issues dealt with. I am lucky to have a great surgery and the staff are always pleasant and helpful

  2. Review titled Absolutely brilliant

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Caroline Mcpartland - Posted on 17 October 2023

    Very polite and so caring lovely couldn't ask for a better nurse she was above and beyond made me feel relaxed she listened to me took time to talk to me and was just so nice about everything she advised me and told me not to worry that we would sort things out with my weight when my breathing got a bit better I left the surgery feeling a lot more relaxed than I did with my last review.

  4. Review titled Never had a problem with this practice.

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 17 October 2023

    I called the surgery for a callback regarding blood results for my son. I got through very quickly. My callback rom the GP was within the time frame given. The Doctor was helpful and very understanding. I have to give this surgery credit. The staff at reception are always very helpful.

  9. Review titled Take a long time to answer the phone.

    Rated 3 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 17 October 2023

    Every time I contact the surgery, I am told that I'm number 1 in the line and this can take up to at least 5-10 minutes before I talk to a Receptionist. Once I get to talk to someone, they have to have advice from another colleague!!! So I am thinking about changing doctors.

    Dear Patient I am sorry to see that you have struggled to contact the Practice via the telephone. We are currently experiencing increased demand on our telephone lines and our patient services team has been working very hard to answer calls under the additional pressure. I recognise that difficulties in accessing the Practice can be extremely frustrating for our patients and I apologise unreservedly for any upset or inconvenience. You can also request an appointment by attending the Practice reception from 8am or using our online option. Kind regards Patient Experience Team

  10. Review titled Lovely and informative nurse

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    by Anna - Posted on 06 October 2023

    I went in for a doctor’s appointment and asked if I can book a flu jab. The receptionist was very helpful and understanding and booked me in straight after my doctor’s appointment. The nurse was very thorough and noticed I didn’t have a health check done for a while…and told me that as she has a bit of time spare she’ll do it there and then. So, all in all, extremely helpful staff and very thorough and informative nurse. Really pleased with today’s visit at Hill Crest Surgery.
