Review titled Shocked beyond belief
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Adnan Khan - Posted on 12 February 2024
I have called every morning for the last 2 weeks from 8am on the dot. I'm not here to complain about wait times, I do not care but the phone line doesn't even put you in a queue to wait. I've had "line busy" message and tone before the call ends each and every day. This morning I started the calls from 8am and by 9:44, I had made 78 call attempts. I had to ring 111 for advice in between who were just as useless telling me I need to just persist and keep trying. I finally rang at 10:45 again and I was put in a queue only to be told there are no available appointments left. You can't make it up its that bad. Luckily my record showed I was eligible (how lucky am i) for an emergency appointment so they put my name down. A doctor called me about an hour later telling me I sound fine... not an emergency but will take the matter forward for me... I was that shocked I didn't know what to say. I've had a cough for around 6 months now and antibiotics have not helped. I guess when I'm at deaths door they'll spare 5 minutes for me. Until then just crack on. Disgusting is an understatement.

Review titled Telephone line engaged from 8am-8.41
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 06 November 2023
I don’t ring the dr often. The reason being because I can never get through. This morning it took over 40mins just to connect to the dr phone line due to it been engaged. I am now in a que. it’s not telling me my position in the que. I hope I can get me and my son an appointment. Worst dr surgery ever.

Review titled Ridiculous
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 17 February 2023
Missed a call today, rang straight back, was on hold for 31 minutes 42seconds, to a broken message that kept breaking up, when I was finally answered, that too was breaking up, I asked if he could ring back which he did. I said I'm returning a call, he took my details and said I needed a ??test, I said is that an actual blood test or do I need ??, he said let me check, he came back saying a blood test, " let's see what we have available this week" i said I cannot tomorrow so it will be next week, after a few seconds he said March 10th, I said I could be dead by then, he said yeah he said there's an after hours one I said here but after few minutes of confusion, bear in mind he'd already taken my address it was in Bd7, he then said there's a drop in tomorrow at Woodroyd, once again after telling him twice already I couldn't make tomorrow, he then said March 13th !!!! I said forget it, I've just wasted 45 minutes and still no nearer to a reasonable appointment, I told him to contact with an appointment or I will try again next month. It really is ridiculous to get any kind of service from this practice. At the end of August last year one of my repeat meds was stopped and I needed a Dr. to review it, now I'm at work at 8am so cannot ring them, so nearly every evening and morning I went online to try and get an appointment and they were either all gone or within my working hours. I eventually got one in December, luckily the meds weren't for keeping me alive, and it was literally a 1 minute phone call. There no way to complain that I can see, only one phone number and now that they have disabled the message service on the SystmOnline, the only way to actually speak to anyone is in person or via a phone, which will be answered in about 30 minutes. Absolutely appalling.

I called on two occasions on two seperate weeks for my son! Moment they hear the word temperature 🌡 they somehow assume its corona an didnt offer him face to face app. Instead diagnosed him over telephone. When demanding for face to face the reception claimed i shouted an shes following protocol! I spent 2 days in a&e with my son after ! An it seemed that he was affected by sooo many infections at the same time hence why his been unwell for more than 2 weeks!!!!! Made me being 38weeks pregnant an my son wiat in A&e. Atleast managed to get him seen an checked with medicine
