Review titled Online booking impossible while phone lines closed
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Rob Batchelor - Posted on 18 February 2024
I've just spent about 30-40 minutes trying to work out how to book an appointment. Having registered for two seemingly separate systems - AskFirst and Patient Access - neither has allowed me to make a booking, and Patient Access tells me I've "reached the maximum number of booked appointments". So, I'll just have to call during the practice opening hours until I get through to someone and risk being late for work - so much for the seven day NHS...

I am sorry to read that you are experiencing problems booking an appointment via online access. The systems won't allow a patient to book an appointment if they already have 2 appointments scheduled, to avoid patients booking multiple slots. If you have not reached this limit and still continue to have problems please do raise the issue with us. Kind regards Jo Hearle HR Manager

The GP was attentive, encouraging and sympathetic about ongoing chronic issues. I was on time for my appointment but had to wait 1/2 hour.

Thank you for your 4 star review, our staff are very patient centred and do always strive to give the best care possible. They do aim to run to time but unfortunately for various reasons they can run late. I hope you were kept updated by the reception team as to how long you would be waiting. Kind regards Jo Hearle HR Manager

Review titled Wonderful practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Lesley Hayes - Posted on 22 October 2023
As usual I was able to see the doctor I wanted as quickly as possible, with only a short waiting time in the surgery on the day. From the friendly warm receptionist to the kind, respectful, thoughtful doctor, my experience was great.

Just wanted to shout out the lovely reception staff. I call the doctors a lot (it feels) and usually burst into tears on the phone when I hear how long I'll have to wait for an appointment. The reception staff are always so kind and calm and it means such a lot. Thank you <3

Review titled Fast and compassionate treatment
Rated 5 stars out of 5

I telephoned to ask if they provided advice on a problem. Call from GP an hour later and a follow up appointment made. It’s not urgent but such a relief to know there’s a solution, I simply couldn’t ask for better treatment.

Review titled Brilliant practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Lesley Hayes - Posted on 29 June 2023
As usual I was seen on time and had a thorough yearly health review with one of the doctors. Exemplary treatment… respect, kindness, attentiveness, and careful research into whether my current COPD medication was right for me, with a follow up text message of advice. I feel very lucky to be a patient at this practice.

Review titled Brilliant experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Grace - Posted on 12 June 2023
The best GP surgery I have been to!! I just wanted to write and say thank you for the brilliant service this practice provides. As a student in the area who has had negative experiences with GPs in the past, I am really grateful to have had a positive experience. I have a few health issues, and have always been able to get an appointment fairly quickly. The staff are lovely and friendly, and whenever I have had an appointment, I have felt well listened to, taking the time to ask to put how I feel into my own words. Thank you so much!!

Went in for an injection and a hypertension review. The nurse was cheerful and patient with me. She always gives a written reminder of the date I should book my next B12 injection.

I am always able to get an appointment when I want one, and choose which doctor suits me best. Appointments are generally on time, and if I have to wait I don’t mind because the doctors give me as much time with them as I need to explain the issue and examine me thoroughly and always with the utmost respect and kindness. If ever there is need for a referral it is done quickly and easily. I feel very lucky that this is my local GP surgery.

Highly recommending GP practice. Do not hesitate to register with this GP practice. The practice has enough tightly trained staff waiting time for an appointment is minimum for Oxford.
