  1. Review titled Not issuing repeat prescriptions on time.

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 14 November 2024

    Ordered my repeat prescriptions in 04/11/2024. Called local pharmacy on 12/11/2024 who requested as urgent. Today(14/112024) still nothing. Called the surgery as I’m now out of one of my medications and told no one can prescribe today as the GP who signs it is out of the surgery today and no one else can did it. They also said that they didn’t receive my NHS request. This request did go through ( on 4/11/2024) as NHS website confirms this and pharmacy also have proof that they to requested it 2 days ago. This is important medication. I’m at a loss as to what I can do to get my medications on time as this is the second month that this has happened.

  2. Review titled Ridiculous appointment waiting times

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 25 June 2024

    I do not understand why I am unable to get an appointment for at least a month. I ended up using a private GP service through work to speak to a GP. I was told I need blood tests, but still cannot get an appointment for this for over a month. It is just crazy that there are no appointments for a month. Really annoying and I shouldn't need to have to contact a private GP service due to not being able to get an appointment at my GP surgery.

    Sorry to read that you are unhappy with the current routine wait times for appointments. Unfortunately, patient demand and chronic underfunding means we cannot provide the service we would like to. This is not exclusive to Sixways, practices locally and nationally are experiencing the same problems. If you would like to discuss your concerns further, please contact the practice.

  3. Review titled Appalling service

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 24 April 2024

    Waited almost a month for an appointment (review of blood test results). Arrived a few minutes late (stuck in traffic for an hour) and the doctor refused to see me. Offered "next available appointment" which is over a month away. Test results mention "uncontrolled diabetes, hypothyroidism, liver disease and nephrotic syndrome" and "premature coronary heart disease". So clearly something that needs attention and yet I feel I am treated like a nuisance and told to come back in a month. My advice: avoid this practice at all costs.

  4. Review titled Awful treatment from reception team

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 16 February 2024

    I’m gobsmacked!! After being told by the reception team to ring 111, I did buy was told there was no appointments with out of hours and to ring my gp. So- I rang back. I was told by sixways they didn’t deal with abdominal pain and wouldn’t make an appointment. I said I have no other option I’d like to just speak to my doctor at least. The receptionist said she would not be able to do this and couldn’t help. I’m at a loss as to why GPs exist if they aren’t able to help their patients and instead leave them in pain and without help?!?!

  5. Review titled Kind and caring

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Ian Howgate - Posted on 18 August 2023

    My 89 year old mother has just recently joined the surgery and we have today been visited by a doctor who came out to review her care. To use my mother's words "he was absolutely lovely", but he was also extremely professional and very understanding. We could not have asked for more. God bless you all.

    Dear Mr Howgate, Thank you for your kind words, these have been passed on to the Doctor involved and the wider team. We aim to provide an excellent level of care to all our patients and I am pleased to hear that your Mother felt that this was given to her. Best wishes Ceri Gardener Practice Manager
