Review titled Used to be great
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 16 November 2023
I had to have a smear test done today, and I can’t fault the nurse that did the procedure, she treated me how she would have liked to be treated and she talked me through everything that she was doing. It’s a shame that the practice has gone severely down hill I just can’t get an appointment to see my own doctor, I’m lucky that I don’t go to the doctors that often.

Apologies for the delay in responding, I was new to the post in November. Thank you for your feedback- I am very pleased that you had a good experience with the Nurse and going forward I hope making appointments will be easier as I have increased the number of On The Day appointments as well as revamping other clinics - Please contact me if you have any future problems Jan

Review titled Saddened and disappointed
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Cliff Madge - Posted on 29 November 2023
I’m mystified about this surgery when you do get appointments every thing seems to work well for me But my previous comment on this system on 05/09 got a response on 7/11 asking me to contact an unnamed person which I attempted to whilst in the surgery and the receptionist said someone would be in touch Not yet 29/11 Other members of my close family have had very little luck getting what could be maybe serious problems sorted out ie the local hospital refer them back so they (the doctor)only to be told by said doctor she couldn’t refer to any other hospital than our local hospital They have now had to go private at considerable cost It’s a very sad state of affairs when young people can’t get help unless family pays This probably a complete waste of my time as I get the impression polite comment doesn’t actually achieve anything Small wonder some resort to insults Happy Days

Review titled Great nurse
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Tony Sterry - Posted on 06 September 2023
I went to see my nurse at the surgery today to get my INR check and once again the nurse was professional and very understanding in her approach to my problems, my INR has always been a problem to keep to a even level but my nurse now has an understanding with my issues and with a few minor adjustments she always seems to get it back on track,I also mentioned a few other worries that I have with my health and again my nurse went above and beyond to answer my questions and put me at ease ( I wish I could name the nurse but am not allowed due to NHS policy) I personally think that when dealing with a patient with a few issues it is so reassuring when your nurse understands and listen’s, which mine does and I could not be happier with the treatment that I receive on every visit. Keep up the good work and thank you.

Review titled Disappointed
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Cliff Madge - Posted on 05 September 2023
We as family have been with this surgery for over fifty years and sadly recent experiences haven’t been great I’d booked an appointment early August and to my surprise got one for the next working day.From that several tests were needed When the test results arrived I tried to book a consultation (phone would be acceptable) and was told the earliest would be 1 day short of a calendar month away. My concern is that I had genuine reasons for my initial appointment and my problem is still persists Clearly it’s not life threatening but am I wrong to expect something slightly better I read all comments online from the surgery but no mention of when things might improve

Review titled Fantastic advice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by I Allen - Posted on 08 August 2023
Had a full and Frank conversation with the nurse yesterday about my options for a couple of issues I’m having. First class advice, as always, from someone who you know genuinely cares about her patients. Thank you!

Dear A Martin Thank you for your feedback. I apologise that you have felt the need to write this but rest assured we take all feedback seriously. The practice has gone through a massive change in terms of improving access. If you were asked to call back back at 8 am , i would say this was perfectly reasonable request as our call waits times have reduced significantly. I am aware that in the past you may have had to wait for over an hour but please take the advice of the receptionists. Also if you are working you can use e-consult on our website ot out of hours on 111 If you would like to discuss this further please pop in and ask for scheduled call back from the practice management Kind Regards Horsmans place

Was very friendly and listened to my comments. She was able to provide a lot of advice on various aspects. Probably the best review that I have had over the last 13 years or so.

Review titled Good experience
Rated 4 stars out of 5

I had minor surgery carried out by the doctor. Both the doctor and the nurse in attendance, clearly explained what would happen and how to look after my wounds. They were both caring and efficient.

Review titled Great practice

The doctors are very busy, but they are helpful and listen carefully to any problem. If necessary, they send the patient to a specialist. The nurse is very kind and responsive.
