Review titled Top marks!
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Marie Ellaby - Posted on 02 October 2024
I had a telephone appointment with a doctor today. I had previously met her 2 years ago for a small procedure and her kindness, empathy, understanding, patience, knowledge and expertise had left a lasting impression on me! I was delighted that she rang me today and felt at ease instantly by her kindness,warmth, understanding and reassurance. We discussed everything and she listened intently, I finally feel understood. We came up with a plan together to manage my symptoms and she sent me links with information to help. The knowledge, expertise, care and empathy I was shown today has left me feeling so much better. I can't tell you how happy I am with today's consultation. Thank you so very much! I will be asking for this doctor by name going forward. An absolute credit to the profession. Thank you!

Review titled First class service and expertise
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Claire - Posted on 25 September 2024
I was referred to the women's health specialist doctor (not allowed to leave her name unfortunately) for her expert advice. The whole experience was first class. I was seen quickly, the receptionist was lovely. This GP is hands down the best doctor I have ever met. She really listened to me and gave her expert advice. She is extremely knowledgeable and her approach to patients is first class. Thank you so much!!!

Review titled Great practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Tim - Posted on 20 September 2024
This practice makes going to see GP or any of the other health professionals a pleasurable experience from first contact to being seen. I've not had to wait to see anyone I use ask my GP and within 20mins I receive a message or phone call and if needed an appointment same day most times within the hour of first contact, everyone one at the surgery is a credit to the service.

Review titled Fantastic staff and Fantastic service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Kelly Yeow - Posted on 23 September 2024
Would give 100 stars if i could. I swapped my previous gp to here after i had my baby. The staff are so lovely especially the staff on reception always so friendly and helpful unlike my previous GP one of the receptionist couldn't be bothered makes such a different having someone lovely on reception to greet you. The Doctors are also so friendly and helpful and the nurse who i have been taking my baby to see for her check ups so caring and gentle with my little girl. Thank you to all the staff at Wigan South Medical practice :)

I saw the practice nurse this morning she was so friendly and warm and gave great compassionate care! She spent time speaking with me before the procedure and really put me at ease. She is a great example of exemplary nursing care! Thank you

Review titled Really good practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by John Carroll - Posted on 26 June 2024
When you use "ask my GP" to request an appointment you get one the same morning. The Dr's are all caring and listen to you and your concerns. All the Dr's I have seen are friendly and go out of their way to help you. In my opinion this is the model practice. I attended today, I made the request to see a Dr ar 11 am and was given an appointment at 11.30 am thesame day. The Dr examined me and has prescribed medication and arranged s blood test. The Dr told me to contact the practice again if there were still problems and said they would check the results of the blood test.

Review titled Great practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Lauren - Posted on 07 June 2024
I have recently been having a range of symptoms and difficultly with my health. My recent GP has worked hard and exceeded my expectations as I have slowly lost faith in the NHS. He has been extremely thorough and listened to my worries with pure compassion and ensured I received the reassurance I needed and escalated my care appropriately. I extremely appreciate this hard work and dedication to give a high quality of care. The practice is running better since the change over with more accessible appointments and quick response time. Thank you for all the staff for continuing to work extremely hard, your hard work does not go unoticed.

Review titled Fantastic Nurse
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Tasha - Posted on 23 May 2024
I had my smear test done today and the nurse was the one who performed it. Nurse made me feel so at ease, she’s extremely bubbly, friendly and professional. Nurse reassured me and was very gentle, efficient and safe. I think Nurse is a real credit to this surgery and think she deserves recognition. Thank you. (Will not allow the name, the first name rhymes with granite, the last begins with g) I want this nurse to receive this compliment about her.

Review titled Best run practice I’ve ever known
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Brian Marsh - Posted on 22 April 2024
I’ve only been with the practice for 4 months, having transferred from another practice. In that time, I’ve unfortunately had several illnesses, some minor and some major, requiring hospital consultations and admissions. Every time, the service I’ve received from doctors, nursing staff, receptionists and admin staff, has been outstanding. I’ve had prompt responses, early appointments, thorough consultations, quick and relevant treatment; and always felt that the service I received, in all areas, was friendly, thorough and personal. The ability to receive a response by email, telephone, video or personal contact has never let me down. This morning, for example, I contacted the surgery, via Ask my GP around 8.45. I received an email acknowledgement within 2 minutes, advising me of the next stage. I received a telephone call at 11.00, advising me what to do next; and I received the appropriate medication by 12.00. Generally, however, nothing can ever be perfect, so I’ve been compiling a list of negatives, to offer some ideas for improvement. Having deliberated for some time and exhausted all possible routes, I can think of only one which, however, I think is critical - ‘If somethings not broken, don’t fix it. Hence, don’t change anything’ Sincere thanks for all your help , care and attention to detail. Brian Marsh
