Review titled Good practise
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 04 August 2023
The only problem with this practise is if you have seen a doctor and he refers you to a consultant .Then he should read the reply from that consultant not other doctors in the practise that you have never seen about your problem. It's so annoying .

Rated 1 star out of 5

19/12: Joined the car park queue at 7.25am, got to the desk at 0815, no face2face or phone appointments. Explained I was waiting for urgent cancer results, told to come back tomorrow and queue again. 20/12: Joined the queue at 07:10, got to the desk at 0810, no face2face or phone appointment, explained again that I was waiting for urgent results, receptionist totally unsypathtic... come back tomorrow. How is this a service?

Review titled Awful phone lines
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Jennifer Hewson - Posted on 09 December 2022
Thought I would call the surgery late afternoon just to book a non emergency appointment. Started the call at 4.30pm and still on hold saying I am number 1 in the queue at 5.30pm. I gave up in the end. Totally unacceptable to wait over an hour for a receptionist to pick up the phone. I am well aware I am likely to have to wait until Jan 23 for an appointment but can I at least book one and speak to an receptionist?
