Review titled Arrogance and incompetence at every stage
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 27 November 2023
You can't 'sign up' for this place - it's an insolent 'we'll let you know in four to six weeks'. And given a form that could be completed in about five minutes. Then trying to arrange an operation via my optician - twice told 'We haven't received that' - so get lost. I have confidence in my optician - but not in these incompetents.

I have been registered with the surgery for nearly 5 years and never had any issues. I always use an online form to contact the surgery for myself and a family. My daughter gets seen on a same day usually. Great service and staff.

Review titled Extremely Helpful and Efficient
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Miss Reynolds - Posted on 17 March 2023
I registered at this practice recently and have nothing but praise for this surgery. Lovely reception staff who have been very helpful explaining the registration process & how to access the online services. I had my first appt with a gp today who was v understanding about a chronic condition I have. The gp offered advice & sent me helpful info links about various coping techniques & blood tests were arranged & an appt for bloods was arranged v quickly. Very helpful, efficient and very friendly staff. Thank you so much for making me feel welcome and feeling like I am being listened to, I really appreciate it

Review titled Sincere thanks
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 04 January 2023
Have recently had a family bereavement. This surgery could not have been more supportive both to my late relative before she passed away and to me in coping with my grief. Everyone from the receptionists to the GPs have been wonderful and I just want to pass on my sincere thanks for all the help i have received at this difficult time.

Review titled Terrible service lately
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 08 February 2023
Next to impossible to get an appointment unless you ring on a day when you have time to wait in all day just in case they can see you. Otherwise you have to book an appointment 3-4 weeks in advance. Follow up for results is only done when you ring and ask you have to chase it yourself or you'll never know if they have results back or not. Closes down cases if test results come back clear with no follow up investigations to find the cause of the issue. Notes taken in appointments by doctors inaccurate. Won't respond to e mail complaints. Are only willing to discuss on the phone but getting through on the phone is next to impossible. Some services are good but generally a stressful experience.
