Review titled Walk inService
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Nic Cuthbertson - Posted on 03 August 2024
Had to use the walk in service last month. Had heard bad feedback so was expecting the worst. Not so, was checked in promptly, waited maybe 15 minutes until I was triaged, another 10 mins to see the Doctor. All done within the hour. The place was clean and efficient as well, not what I had been led to believe in any way.

Review titled Appointment
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Veera - Posted on 12 April 2024
Three times they had cancelled our appointment because the nurse was sick and notified through SMS. I had to call again to book an appointment and every time they book for another appointment after a month. If the appointment is cancelled due to NHS staff issue how the patient is responsible for this. One more issue i faced is for my baby where i have booked an appointment for vaccination,i went late by 10 minutes of my appointment time because the baby was crying and we need to calm them before i could reach the health practise, they refused to entertain and i had to rebook another appointment with a waiting period of one month where the second set of injections were due. With infant they have to be accommodative since they will be not be the same all the time. The receptionist was really rude and was constantly interrupted by another receptionist of walk in centre when i was speaking to the person of medical practise. This centre lacks empathy and they dont even understand the practical difficulties faced by the patient. I am extremely disappointed with the service of this GP and will not recommend it others.

Review titled Medicines review
Rated 2 stars out of 5

They keep giving tiny missed calls while phone is in your hand and within less than a second call is disconnected and they then delay this for weeks Due to this break and wait in my medicines review my mental health is too much affected I believe they do it on purpose giving just a small missed call not even a call and then leaving the patient to wait or feel more upset without meds

Review titled Appalling service
Rated 1 star out of 5

Phoned at 8 for an appointment, none left but was offered one in 2 weeks time. Called 111 who sent an urgent referral through, still no appointment available. Apparently an ‘urgent’ referral doesn’t mean you get to see a doctor……what??!!! Receptionist was rude, unprofessional and no help at all. Take my advice and avoid this practice……this has happened twice before for the same thing and I’ve ended up hospitalised. No interest in patient care, absolutely useless. Practices like this one are the reason people have to go to A & E.

Review titled Horrible reception staff
Rated 1 star out of 5

No empathy, 6 hour waits, nip out for a bit because you feel ill and then you lose your appointment, get refused any treatment. The receptionist told me with a smirk that I need to come back tomorrow! Yeah thanks great service and care for those ill and in pain. Shame on you!!!

Review titled No capacity
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Baskar - Posted on 19 April 2023
I've been registered with this GP since 2 years back and always struggling to get GP appointment on time. You will have to wait minimum of 2 weeks to get seen by doctor. I feel the surgery is struggling with overwhelming registrations and has less bandwidth to serve the patients.

Review titled Better than my GP!
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Nadz0511 - Posted on 16 October 2022
I suspected my daughter had bacterial tonsillitis. After being fobbed off by NHS 111, who took over 7 hours to phone me back only to tell me that they didn't think she was high prority in needing treatment, I decided to take her to the walk in clinic at Shakespeare Medical Practice. We were in and out in 15 minutes, and my daughter was given a prescription for penicillin. If I'd tried to do this at my GP surgery, I'd have had to go to a pharmacy first and they would need to assess and refer us to get an appointment. I know this because it happened previously a few years ago, and they wouldn't refer us so I used this very service that time too. Hats off to the walk in service, its a saviour! More reliable than my GP surgery!
