Review titled Efficient friendly practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Susan Leaman - Posted on 11 October 2024
This morning I took a specimen to Schopwick Bushey as I suspected an infection. The receptionist asked me to return at 11:30 when there would be more availability opening as she was not allowed to accept it. I did so & she put me into a triage slot. Shortly after a gp texted me to bring specimen in. I also got a text from the triage team to say they would get back to me asap. Shortly after dropping the specimen in I got a call from the gp saying it had tested positive for infection & he would send a script to the chemist. A call from a nurse practitioner also followed & she seemed very happy it had been dealt with. I think that shows that staff (whoever) work as a team & assist each other too which is why I have always found them efficient, thorough& friendly. I was on antibiotics by 2:30!! Thank you Schopwick xx

Review titled Endless Frustration for Patients
Rated 1 star out of 5
by David F - Posted on 13 March 2024
Trying to secure an appointment at Schopwick Surgery has become an exercise in futility. Despite their claims of an unchanged phone system, the reality for patients like myself is a relentless cycle of disappointment and frustration. The process supposedly begins at 8:30 am, yet by 8:31 am, all available appointments miraculously vanish, leaving callers stranded with nothing but a dial tone. Attempting to express this experience to the receptionists yields nothing but denial, as they parrot the scripted response: "our phone system has not changed." What's even more infuriating is the dismissive manner in which concerns are handled. Any attempt to plead one's case is met with interruption and ultimately, the abrupt end of the call. It's a blatant disregard for patient grievances and a shameful display of customer service. Regrettably, the decline in service quality at Schopwick Surgery, an institution serving the South Herts community since 1931 and once recognised as "outstanding" by the Care Quality Commission, has become glaringly evident. It's disheartening to witness the deterioration of such a historically significant and esteemed establishment into a bureaucratic nightmare, where patient care takes a back seat to administrative incompetence. My experiences with Schopwick Surgery continue to leave me feeling disillusioned and abandoned. It's high time for management to acknowledge these glaring issues and take concrete steps to rectify them. Until then, patients like myself will continue to suffer the consequences of their ineptitude.

Dear David I am very sorry to hear you have had bad experience getting through the Practice and no appointments being available at 8.31am. Can you please contact me at the practice so I can investigate this incident and discuss the concerns you have raised. Overall, demand for appointments is extremely high compared to resources we have available. We are trying our very best to manage demand and improve access. We are reviewing our systems regularly to see how we can improve and manage demand. Regards, Sheetal Shah, Practice Manager

Needed help with unobtainable medication. The Pharmacist not only sourced it for me but sent the prescription to the alternative pharmacy within minutes to ensure I was not without. Excellent.

Review titled Excellent practise
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by pam robertson - Posted on 06 December 2023
I have been a patient at this practise for 52 years. I have always received excellent care from all staff in the practise.The care for my severly learning disabled son has been first class. The patient understanding of his behaviours regarding examinations, blood tests and vaccinations means he is now confident to attend any appointment and not totally dependent on the senior nurse for treatment. the liason person prompts his appointments and every one is flexible and willing to cooperate to meet his needs in a very person centred way. This makes a huge difference to me as stress is reduced and I am seen as a partner in his care which I value. I have nothing but praise for the service we have experienced and this I hope is a way of thanking all at Schopwick.

I have always received excellent & efficient help from Schopwick Surgery (mainly Bushey branch). Staff are efficient & follow through with any enquires or issues, from Reception to GP & everyone behind the scenes, who are not always appreciated. Thank you for looking after me.
