Review titled Urgent Prescription Request
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 10 March 2023
I called the surgery in a panic as my husband had run out of his medication. I spoke to the Prescription Officer who calmed me and immediately requested a prescription for today which I will be able to collect from pharmacy at around 1530. So very grateful.

Review titled Parking outside Laburnum House
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Stephen Ridd - Posted on 14 February 2023
Had to take my mother to the practise on the 4.2.23 to have some stitches removed from a head wound. She is 92 years of age has severe copd & terminal lung cancer she is able to moved by wheelchair only. When we parked outside the centre in the very first bay -we went in and was seen very quickly and the staff were excellent. However stunned to see a parking ticket in the post for £60. There is no mention on yr website saying the parking outside is permit parking only - and is for residents. For the sake all of yr new visitors - surely thats something that can be put on yr websire without delay. I now understand that parking is available in Morrisons.surely u dont expect my wife to push a wheelchair that far in her mothers current situation. we have appealed the ticket - but how do u expect them to understand -there just money grabbers.... would welcome yr comments. regards steve ridd

Dear Mr Ridd Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your received a parking ticket when visiting Laburnum Health Centre. Unfortunately Laburnum Health Centre does not have designated parking. The parking bays in front of the Centre are for the residents of the new housing estate. There are sign post around these bay highlighting the parking restrictions. Following your feedback we have now added a section on to our website highlighting the parking restrictions and we are in the process of putting a poster on the door to highlight this as well. Once again we are sorry that you received this fine and wish you all the best with your appeal. Kind Regards Linda Franklin - Assistant Manager

Review titled Poor practice
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Brad - Posted on 07 January 2024
Went to the doctor about a shoulder injury, took 4 months to be refered to a specialist. I'm still waiting for a appointment from the specialist. Can not get through to the doctors to find out what's happening, just left to wait and suffer. Since then my condition has worsten, effecting my sleep and my daily activities, as well as my work. Can never get through to the gp to book an appointment, the specialist said when I contacted them that I have to wait. This is unreasonable and patient neglect on a high level.

Review titled Bad practice
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 10 January 2023
Tried to get an appointment and can never get through. They don't allow to make other appointments for a different day and make you fill out a form just to try and get an appointment. If I'm super Ill why am I filling out a form just to get an appointment? No other surgeries do this!

Dear Patient Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that you have had difficulty in getting an appointment. We acknowledge that there are times when our phone lines are extremely busy and all available appointments get booked very early. We do regularly look at our appointment system to see if there are ways for us to improve this for our patients. However, due to high demand there are times when this cannot be avoided. We have introduced a system where if patients come in to the surgery to book an appointment and there is no availability we ask the patient to complete a form. This ensures patients confidentiality and enables a clinician to triage the request and book appointments if necessary. If you would like to contact the practice with your details we will respond fully to your concerns Kind Regards Linda Franklin - Assistant Manager
