    The receptionist was polite and helpful and the triage doctor phoned me back promptly. The nurse explained my condition and answered all of my questions about the prescribed medication in a clear and professional manner. The prescription was with the pharmacist within a few hours.

  4. Review titled Poor

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    Tried to phone surgery on the 9/04/2024 and got the recorded message of you are number 9 in the queue but after 45mins i was still waiting,i had just finished my second lot of antibiotics and needed more help as im still ill and my breathing is bad i then emailed the surgery 3 times and was told my message would be passed to my doctor,on top of this im being refused blood tests at this surgery and told to go to the walk in center or hospital when the surgery is only 200meters away from my house,this surgery operates with 2 parttime doctors on one doctor who is never seen it also has a huge turn over of staff,i find it discusting that doctors are over paid receptionists who prefer to prescribe over the phone then see you face to face,the nhs needs to sort its house out asap before more people die,this surgery needs taking to task and start doing the job they are paid to do although its strange the surgery is always empty when i can visit yet car park is full,if things are not sorted in surgerys like this many law suits will follow

  5. Review titled Awful practice.

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    When you telephone, I appreciate that the person answering needs to know a certain amount of information in order to know with whom to make you an appointment, GP or nurse, etc. But when you inform them that you have already tried over the counter medicines and they haven't helped, that you are having a very severe reaction to something, it is utterly ignorant of them to just tell the person on the phone to go to a pharmacist (who can only sell over the counter items which you already informed them did not help) and not even put a query through to a qualified nurse or GP!! They are being gatekeepers and potentially leaving someone at risk. The fact that you can never get an appointment with a GP because the appointments are all booked up for the next 4 weeks!! Yet if by some miracle you do manage to ever get an appointment, there is barely anyone in the surgery waiting to be seen! The surgery used to be good but in the last year they have gone very much downhill. Very quickly. Perhaps because the only GP that used to listen to what you were actually saying, left last year. The ones there now are not caring, they don't listen to what you're saying in any appointments. They fail to chase referrals after saying that they will, which means you are left without treatment for months or even over a year. The nurses are wonderful, if you can get past a gatekeeper to get an appointment. Just an awful practice. Would not recommend at all.

  6. Review titled Would recommend

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    Have recently needed to make an appointment for my newborn - the practice was able to arrange an appointment to be seen face to face by a GP on the same day. Receptionists were friendly and helpful. Always have a quick reply to messages sent via online form. Practice was quick to amend a prescription (change needed due to unavailability of prescribed medication at local pharmacy). I cannot fault the practice to date.
