Review titled Very Informative Service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anthony Tiani - Posted on 06 November 2024
The information given to me about my Health issues is very informative and most questions I raise about my Illness, Diagnosis plus Health Condition are answered appropriately related to good advice about how I can cope better including the treatments that are available to help me. The Service is friendly, polite, on-time and no stigma is insinuated regarding my Health Problems. My recent experiences have been dealt with quickly and I felt reassured during my appointment whilst feeling unwell. The response to my queries are explained to me in a very professional and they give me valuable advice at the same time as showing respect, dignity and etiquette. The Clinic Service is always prepared to assist me when I most need it, especially in times of crisis. An invaluable Service, Clinic and Practice which keeps in close touch with the local community. Highly recommended. 10/10 Exceptional.

Review titled Fantastic practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Eileen Dey - Posted on 27 November 2024
I was really impressed by the efficiency and care from the doctor and practice nurse I had 2 procedures carried out and also a steroid injection in my right knee. Everything is now very satisfactory and I’m so happy and impressed with the way everything was carried out. I have never had a bad experience at this practice. Thank you to everyone at this practice for all your efficient work.

I came to see a clinician on the 17th I was quite concerned about my back. I was put at ease and felt so much better when I left 10 out of 10 again

I don’t attend the practice often, but the new doctor was very good in terms of putting the effort tinto trying to find the cause of my problem.

Review titled Great but just don't want to book appointments
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 28 August 2024
Its kinda crazy to experience the inability to able to book a simple consult in 2024. To book an appointment, you have to fill a form with the time you'd like to be called at. But the surgery will call you at random times because you are expected to sit there phone in hand and wait for them to ring you at any moment apparently. God forbid if you were driving or on another call, tough luck you missed it and book again.

Dear patient, Thank you for taking the time to review our services. I'd like to address your comments individually if I may, so that I can clarify our services. Firstly, in order to book an appointment to speak to a clinician, we do offer a digital platform to do so but in no way do we put a barrier on patients booking via a non-digital manner. To this point, over 50% of our appointments are booked via phone calls or visits to the front desk. Regarding the timings of phone calls, our clinicians operate AM and PM clinics and we ask patients to remain available within a time frame that we have found that is manageable for both parties. This is to ensure that there is enough flexibility within those clinics for patients who's needs result in longer appointment times thus making rigid time slots for telephone calls difficult to manage. We do however always give the option of a patient advising of their availability and these notes are passed to the clinicians so that they attempt the call within the designated time frame. Regarding missing a call, all patients are advised via text message that our clinicians will attempt a call at least twice (and not back to back) so that there is the best chance of the appointment going ahead as planned. It is only if a patient misses 2 x calls that we advise they will need to rebook, and again this is done to manage the appointment list as effectively and efficiently as possible. If you would like to discuss any difficulties you have experienced with the above, I would love the opportunity to speak to you directly so we may learn from your experiences or understand why you feel the way you do. Please feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience. Dee Turner, Practice Business Manager

Review titled The staff from admin to GPs are great
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mel - Posted on 03 August 2024
I am thoroughly impressed with the care and service I always receive. From the moment I step into the practice, I’m greeted with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The reception staff are friendly, efficient, and made the check-in process smooth and hassle-free. The GPs and nurses are exceptional. They always take time to listen to my concerns and they give me great advise. I am an anxious person so everything I just mentioned makes a huge positive impact on me. I particularly would like to thank the last GP I met when I went there in July. His knowledge and professionalism are admirable. I would like to take this opportunity as well to say thanks for all the hard work each one of you do within the NHS. Kind regards,

Dear Mel, Reading your review is heartwarming to say the least. Our team is made up of some pretty great individuals and we are proud to have one as cohesive as it is and our patient's experience is core to all we strive to achieve daily. I'm so glad you have felt so welcome with us and albeit without your full name I may have got this wrong, I believe it is Dr Tang who you saw last time you came to see us and I look forward to passing on your comments to him. Many, many thanks for taking the time to leave such a detailed review - it will be my absolute pleasure to pass this on to the team. Dee Turner, Practice Business Manager
