I was very pleased with the service from my local surgery at Ley Hill today. I did not wait long and the staff, as always were pleasant and reassuring. Very impressed with my forthcoming travel clinic appointment. Thank you for your services.

Review titled Great practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5

I am a patient at another surgery within the group but required an urgent blood test yesterday afternoon and the collection time for the sample had already occurred at my own surgery so I was asked to go to Ley Hill who had a later collection time. I want to thank the reception staff for their kindness to me as I was a little shaken by the need for this urgent blood test. I would also like to thank the doctors for their patience - a vein could not be found to get the blood as I had drunk insufficient liquids during the day. After being supplied with several glasses of water, my veins gave the blood sample required. Thank you once again to everyone I saw at Ley Hill Surgery for your kindness and patience - it was very much appreciated. Best wishes and Happy New Year to all Kathy

Review titled Lost the human contact
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 08 December 2023
Tried to speak to a GP rather than take up an appointment time, new booking system is not fit for purpose. Unable to use free text to explain in detail why need a call back on the day, which was required. Staff on telephone are unable to arrange a call back from a GP on the day, even if urgent, just refer you to the online booking system. Patients have become numbers, no empathy any more from what was once the caring profession.

On all 3 occasions the service I received was fantastic. It was easy to make an appointment and I didn't have to wait too long before being seen. The manner of all staff was professional and a doctor rang me back in a timely manner.

Review titled Can’t even get through to receptionist
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 01 August 2023
Waiting for an hour to get through to receptionist for an appointment. When you do get through you are then given another appointment on the phone and then seen in person it’s such a hurdle just trying to see a GP, it makes you feel more unwell with the stress of just trying to get an appointment.

Called this morning at 8am with a concerning symptom. Was called back by a GP within an hour and seen 30 mins later. Examined, reassured and onward referral arranged. Couldn't ask for better care.

Review titled Abysmal! Impossible to access
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 19 June 2023
I’ve been a patient at this practice for close to a decade. I have no doubt the pandemic had an impact but when I have friends and family living in different areas who do not experience the same frustration and impossible access situation I decided it was time to post something. I feel quite strongly that system employed by this group practice effectively discriminates against working parents with younger children. The only option for getting an appointment is for same day and by queuing at the surgery before 0800. There are no bookable appointments beyond same day at all. The receptionists are so frustrated by having to deal with this they struggle to show any empathy anymore and there are no signs of any changes being made to their current approach. I’d be interested to see what profits the partnership are publishing and how much money the partners are making despite what I believe is an incredibly poor service for the patients that they serve. I’ve been writing this whilst waiting in a queue to try and book an on the day appointment and heard some horrible stories yet again!!
