Review titled Triarge and diagnosis
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Hargrave Ann - Posted on 10 February 2023
Called in to Gringley surgery at 1pm, receptionist triaged me and I had a text requesting photographs within 15 minutes. I took a couple of pictures which I sent immediately, Dr A called me within 10 minutes of receiving pictures with a diagnosis and has organised tablets and a blood test. Excellent service and very quick. Thank you very much to all involved. Great service.

Review titled Advanced Nurse Practitioner - LP
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Lindsay (with an ‘A’)! - Posted on 30 January 2023
I have been suffering from severe post Covid symptoms for nearly 4 months and managed to obtain a same day appointment today, first on the phone and then in person. I have seen LP several times previously and on every occasion, I have been impressed. She is extremely personable yet remains to consummate professional. She is knowledgeable, confident, decisive and pragmatic. Yet again, I have left the surgery, confident with her diagnosis which, sadly is not always the case with other health care professionals within this practice. Quite simply, LP is delightful and Riverside Surgeries are made significantly better for having her in the team!

Review titled Excellent service
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Sara Talbot - Posted on 31 January 2023
Called into the surgery in person at 8.15am, receptionist helpful, added my daughter's name to the triage list. I received a triage call around 10am and then had a face to face appointment at 11.30am that same day. The GP we saw was very kind, caring and took a great deal of time with my daughter. Everyone I dealt with was professional and kind. Thank you for such a fantastic service in such difficult times.

Review titled Excellent care
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Chris Carnall - Posted on 07 October 2022
I was able to obtain both a telephone consultation and an "in person" consultation on the same day that I rang the practice. All the staff I spoke with were excellent. The Doctor was extremely thorough and considerate and was careful to explain clearly what he proposed to do and why. He ensured that I had every opportunity to ask questions and reassured me about my concerns. He explained what the next steps would be and was patient and thoughtful throughout. Overall, an excellent experience.

Review titled Lack of response to my enquiry
by Weston12 - Posted on 08 August 2022
I visited Riverside Health Centre Retford Nottinghamshire to enquire when my health issues would be monitored regularly again as they were prior to the pandemic. A very nice receptionist told me that this was the remit of someone upstairs, they would pass it on & I would get a phone call. When that didn't happen I called again two weeks later to be told the same thing. Now five weeks later I have still heard nothing. Can you please advise me as to how I might get correspondence from Riverside Health Centre.
