  1. Review titled Slow and late communication between hospitals and GP Surgery

    by Juan23 - Posted on 25 September 2023

    My feedback is regarding the poor communication of medical information between hospitals and GP surgery. I have had three operations for cancer since November 2022, each time I receive a letter through the post, they don't appear on my patient's record. I have sent copies by email and taken them into the surgery personally and asked for them to be added. My wife attended Dermatology in July 2023. As a result, a new medication regime was recommended by the consultant. After numerous attempts to get the new medication at the GP clinic, the letter from the consultant is still not on her records and her prescriptions have not been updated. I wrote an online prescription request after requesting the dermatology clinic to send me the letter by email. Given the high tech world we live in today, there must be a better way for hospitals to update patient records at the GP surgery other than letters send by email or post?

  2. Review titled Poor online services and bookings

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 24 July 2023

    I was in London before moving to Leighton Buzzard.Here everything is different. The online booking and consultation is just for name sake. I tried booking for consultations online but it always shows there is no available dates. If we are seeking for any blood test or other associated requests we just get a reply stating contact GP over phone for booking. The online services are meant to be for those who can't wait so long in queue. Requesting authorities to have a check on the online services. Its very distressing.

  3. Review titled Never had a problem with them

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 24 March 2023

    Me, my wife and my son have needed the GP in recent months, my son more often. Every time we've phoned to see or speak to a medical professional, they've always been very accomodating. My recent visit, I was dead on my appointment time, the young lady doctor I spoke to was very thorough, and offered the options of further investigation or take a wait & see approach treating with basic pain relief. We agreed to the latter and thankfully that did the trick. But still good to know they we willing to take additional steps. Not a bad word to say about them in my experience. I don't need them often but good to know I can rely on them
