Review titled Dangerous practices
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 03 December 2024
An 86 year old unable to make an appointment on-line. Called practice and waited 35 minutes to be told all appointments have been taken. Then refused to make an appointment for the following day. Then told to call 111. You seriously need to review how your older patients can access a GP. It is appalling to think an 86-year-old is getting up at 06.30 am to prepare for a phone call that leads to disappointment. Your current appointment process favours the tech savvy, leaving the vulnerable at risk.

Review titled poor treatment of pensioners
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Ronald Nicholson - Posted on 15 April 2024
Told I can only get a GP appointment on line. Tried on line, signed in OK. However when I went to get appointment. Website took me to reason for online appointments. No where did I find book an appointment. Visited the Surgery but was told by the receptionist that I would have to call the Surgery the next day at 0800 Hrs. Totaly unacceptable.

Review titled Poor communications
Rated 1 star out of 5

Unable to do e-consultations on computer. Waited on 2 occasions on telephone First time 40 minutes. 2nd time 35minutes. To late for a conversation with Doctors. Surgery needs more telephone lines to help older people who do not have ipads/laptops.

Review titled Monumental Covid vaccination error
Rated 1 star out of 5
by David - Posted on 05 October 2023
Surgery full of people booked in for covid jab toady, they don't do them there is the surgeries answer.You show them the booking on your phone, which it states location Longrigg Medical Centre , no, it's my mistake I should have gone to another location. The other location when you get there say you have not got an appointment, it's at Longrigg.This is the worst if the worst as far as doctors surgeries go.
