Review titled Unattended reception
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 09 April 2024
It is an umbrella practice that exists alongside other practices in the same building. I find it annoying that other practices are giving Doctor appointments before 08:00 am and this practice seems to be 09:00 am. Appointments with the Nurse are given from 8:00 am. On the day in question I had an 08:00 am appointment with the Nurse and I had arrived at 07:45 to find other practice doctors were seeing patients whereas the practice reception for my doctors was not manned. I waited until 08:15 before the nurse I was to see at 08:00 arrived. The Nurse apologised for being late but gave no reason. My appointment with Nurse was very good and I can only praise her work during my attendance - she was very efficient, knowledgeable, informative and had a friendly disposition. I can’t understand why, if there are appointments at 08:00 , reception is not manned before that time - say 07:50 to help people who arrive for the first appointments.

Review titled Nice building and questions answered
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 27 April 2024
It was a pleasant experience. Ample car park spaces available. Toilets are clean and smell fresh, really nice. Pleasant waiting area. The nurse who drew my blood was patient and gentle. Did not leave a bruise on my arm. She sounds and acts so experience. I felt I was in good hand. I have asked a lot of questions during that time which she gave me answers that I am happy with.

I made a request for a referral-this was dealt with quickly and thoroughly on the phone consultation and then responded to the same day

Review titled Good attention
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Maureen Skidmore - Posted on 20 April 2024
I only waited a very short time for my consultation. Despite the surgery being busy I did not feel hurried and was given the opportunity to talk and give my opinion. I was asked if I was happy with the referral and the outcome of the appointment. Also it is very considerate of my GP to collect me from the waiting area and escort me to the doctor's room.

Review titled Excellent Practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5

My last experience was taking my mom to the surgery for a blood test, practice nurse had to take blood pressure, which was on the low side, nurse got in touch with Gp, who then contacted myself and we changed mom’s medication the same day. Excellent service

Review titled Disappointment
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Cristina - Posted on 20 November 2024
I am disappointed because I am treated with indifference by the doctor, when you go to the Dr you go for need, not for pleasure. Instead, the ladies at the reception are extremely empathetic and kind and eager to help the patient, and in this way I want to congratulate them because it is not easy to talk to people who do not speak English very well.
