Review titled No Appointments
Rated 1 star out of 5
by A Dyas - Posted on 28 May 2024
Joined this surgery after moving to East Ardsley and it has to be the worst surgery we have had. My son was diagnosed with flu by someone at the surgery when it was in fact severe tonsillitis when I called he could not be seen again by the practice even though they had diagnosed him wrong and told to use A&E or walk in centres, he ended up at a pharmacy to get antibiotics. Called for a routine appointment for my partner for end of may, told to call back in 2 weeks time when they release them, I did this to be told no appointments for the week how does that happen if not released??? I was fobbed off via e-consult regarding my long term condition and sent to pain management who do not deal with pain meds they just talk about pain and do online tutorials which do not help me with my pain at the minute which is impacting my daily home/work life. Total joke this surgery, I work in the NHS and will take my complaint to the ICB about how badly managed this surgery is.

Review titled Unable to get an appointment.
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Peter - Posted on 01 February 2024
Rather than trying to call at 8am for a same day appointment I tried to book an appointment online. The website had no appointments available for the next 29 days! I called reception and they confirmed the website was correct and no appointments are available for the next month. I opted for online diagnosis and ordering meds online.

Dear Peter, Thank you very much for taking the time to leave a comment on NHS Choices. Whether positive or negative, all feedback that we receive is appreciated as it helps us in our efforts to provide the most effective service. We take on board your comments regarding the difficulty in getting an appointment online and for this we must apologise. We also appreciate your perseverance regarding your efforts to book without adding to our 8am demand. Moving forward, we have recruited extra clinical staff in order to ensure there are more appointments available and we are also transforming our e-consultation service to manage the additional demand brought on by its success and effectiveness. We hope to have the e-consultation service back up and running by the 12th of February. Once again, apologies for any inconvenience caused and should you wish to discuss this further please do not hesitate to get in touch at: middletonpark.surgery@nhs.net Yours faithfully, Adam Bolton Practice Manager

Review titled Still can't get an appointment online.
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Peter Oxley - Posted on 25 February 2024
After failing to get an appointment using the online system a few months ago and being told that more staff were being deployed to make more appointments available I mistakenly understood that this meant more appointments would be available! Just checked online and no appointments available for the next month and the system doesn't allow to see beyond this. It's either try the 8am scramble, which takes an hour until you get told to try online or call back tomorrow, or give up trying to see a GP at this practice.

Good Morning Mr Oxley, Thanks again for your comments in regard to the surgery and our appointment availability. As highlighted previously, this is an area in which we are always trying to improve as we appreciate how frustrating it is when there is limited appointment availability. Although the face to face online appointments may have been booked by other patients, we do ensure our e-consultation service offers another option to patients. You can submit an e-consult by downloading our app 'Bramley Health' or by following the link: https://bramleyonline.co.uk/e-consult.php We will respond within 48 hours with an appropriate care pathway, this may be a prescription, a referral or a face to face appointment in an appropriate timeframe for that condition. Once again, I must apologise that you haven't been able to book an online appointment since your last feedback. If possible, please may you get in touch with the surgery directly at middletonpark.surgery@nhs.net as I would appreciate the chance to discuss your issues directly at a convenient time for yourself. Best wishes, Adam Bolton Practice Manager

Review titled Bloods taken
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 30 January 2024
Short review as 1 minute experience: the person who took my bloods didn’t wipe my arm with alcohol as the protocols state, she didn’t wore gloves either. She dispatched me so quickly I didn’t had time to ask for my puncture site to be cleaned. The waiting room was empty so they weren’t extremely busy. I take bloods from people everyday at my job in the hospital and even there we manage to keep better hygiene. I will avoid getting any further tests in this surgery.

Review titled Not great at all
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 14 March 2023
I don’t understand why there’s only 1 general practitioner available to the community, or why I’ve called 4 times in the past week but was still unable to be seen to as there were no appointments available. Doesn’t sign posting to walk in clinics negate the relevance of the practise?

Dear Patient, Thank you for taking the time to provide some feedback for our practice. We have 5 GPs across the 3 sites and recently restructured the appointment system to allow more availability and choice to our patients. If you would like to discuss this further I would be more than happy to meet with you. Bramley Village

Review titled A fantastic practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Julie Strafford - Posted on 03 May 2023
Cottingley surgery staff are second to non, they’re always polite, professional and respectful. It’s a sense of a community practice, the staff always know your name and often your family members, making it feel like a real community practice, not just a name and number. The care I’ve received after recently put on Atorvastatin and follow up was excellent
