    Thank you for your feedback. It is standard practice for side effects to be advised prior to administering vaccinations, I am sorry if this did not happen. We will share this with our staff and ensure learning.

  2. Review titled Skin problem

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Christopher N - Posted on 09 August 2023

    I had a small lesion on my scalp and was worried that it might be cancerous. I rang the practice in the morning and although I was no 25 in the queue, it went don quickly and I only had to wait about 5 minutes. An appointment was arranged for that afternoon. The doctor was a little unsure as to the severity of the problem but consulted a senior colleague who agreed it was benighn and prescribed an ointment. Taht was forwarded to my pharmacist and I was able to pick it up later that day. The doctor said she would ring me in two weeks to check progress. That hasn't happened but the condition is much improved.

  3. Review titled Appointment with HCA

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Jennifer D - Posted on 09 August 2023

    Had a follow-up apt with an HCA regarding my high blood pressure. I would like to give a shout out to the very helpful and friendly Receptionist who helped me gain full access to the online booking tool as it appears that i only had partial access. This has helped so much in looking at test results etc. This wasn't the first time this same lady has been really helpful so thank you!

    The services that I received from the nurse was excellent. She was friendly, approachable and ensure that I was properly informed about my health and care. I would have no qualms to compliment her for a such professional attitude.

  6. Review titled Urgent appointment

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 07 August 2023

    From the initial call & triage, which was handled with respect, care and efficiency, I received a call back from a GP and an urgent appointment was arranged for the same morning. I was very relieved to get the appointment. The GP was very thorough and explained everything and wrote a prescription for me.

    by Susan N - Posted on 04 August 2023

    I have been having an ongoing problem with my nephrostomy. The staff at Kingston crescent surgery and the district nurses have been kind, helpful and fast to help sort my issue. The skin infection and abscess appear to have gone (thank goodness) I’m now waiting for the hospital to arrange a date to remove the left kidney. Thank you for all your kindness, support and help.

  9. Review titled New receptionist

    Rated 3 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 07 August 2023

    My appointment had been cancelled but as I was near I went into the surgery for some help with another query. The lady on reception was so lovely and helpful. She gave me good advise and helped me how she could. While I was there someone else got very rude to her as they could not get an appointment. I agree with them as the system is rubbish and its so hard to get medical help when needed. However its not this receptionists fault and she dealt with the angry man very well. I just hope that she does not loose her spirit too soon.

    Thank you for taking the time to feedback your recent experience. We are really pleased to hear you found our receptionist so lovely and helpful. Unfortunately, we are seeing an increase in rude / aggressive patients attendance which has impacted our recruitment and retention (in the city as well as within the surgery) - although these incidents are still very fortunately in the minority. Thank you for your comments, we will pass this on to the receptionist who I am sure will find them reassuring. It is absolutely not the receptionist fault if patients find our system tricky to navigate or access difficult; our team are always very happy to help advise and signpost patients to any services or resources that may help.
