Rated 5 stars out of 5

Sometimes it’s hard to get through to the surgery to make appointments I think maybe they have to many patients I have been using this surgery for many years now but seems to be getting harder to get appointments

Dear Anonymous Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. My name is Lesley Hyde and I am the Practice Manager responsible for investigating complaints and issues raised regarding the Practice. I am extremely sorry that you have found it difficult to get an appointment recently. We have increased our on the day and pre-bookable appointments by recruiting new GP's so I would really like to discuss the barriers you face faced in more detail so that I can understand what may have gone wrong and to help you understand the ways you can successfully book an appointment with a GP. Please may I kindly ask that you reach out to me at the Practice (0161 226 0606) so that we discuss in details the problems you have experienced? One very quick way to book an appointment is by downloading the NHS App. If you go on the App at 8am Monday to Friday, you can easily book an on the day appointment or an appointment 6 days in advance. You can also view your medical records (including results), order medication and so much more via the NHS App. We would be more than happy to help you set the NHS App up if you pop into the Practice. Kind regards Lesley Hyde

Review titled An amazing service!
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 16 May 2023
I’ve been registered at this doctors since I started University, it’s not often I need them but when I do need them I find it easy to get in touch with them. I feel that the doctors always listen to what I’m saying rather than reading from a script and the reception team are always very welcoming and pleasant. Thank you Arch!

Review titled helpless staff in the reception
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 09 May 2023
It is literary impossible to book an appointment in The Arch Medical Practice. If you ask for an appointment in the reception the answer is "book it in the app". If you open the app there is a written "contact your GP" If you call your GP the answer is "We can't book an appointment for you today. Call tomorrow at 8 am. When you do so, the line is busy. After a long time of waiting or calling many times until there is an answer You receive the same info as the day before or they say come to reception tomorrow morning. And the round starts again. It is a never-ending story when you can never have an appointment. The worst is receptionists feel free to say "You do not need an appointment" or even cancel it when you do have some booked by your doctor and say we canceled it because you do not need it.

Review titled Outstanding Practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 02 February 2023
Thank you to the two members of staff I spoke with today regarding an issue on the system, both were very attentive and kind. The first member of staff was patient and prompt in identifying how to resolve the issue, which had flagged up on the system, and transferred the call to the relevant person. The second member of staff was polite, honest, caring and efficient. Both members of staff were able to put me at ease, despite me being incredibly stressed out, and identify/action a resolve to the situation. This medical practice is brilliant and I would highly recommend them to any patient seeking to receive a person centred approach to care.

I would like to thank the team at The Arch Medical Practice for making such a quick referral for me. Just six days after my GP appointment I received a letter and notification confirming my referral, which is much appreciated. All of my experiences with the practice have been very positive, thank you.

Review titled Awesome care
Rated 5 stars out of 5

My daughter is attending uni in Manchester and has been quite poorly recently - registered with the Arch medical practice and has received excellent care on the two occasions she has needed help and TLC. The reception staff have been super helpful and caring and the two GPS she has met have gone above and beyond, providing very expert care and taken their time despite the business of the day - very grateful to know that she is in good hands despite being far away from home - Thank you

Dear Anonymous Thank you for providing us with such a wonderful review. I am aware that you also e-mailed in to the Practice to express your thanks which I shared with our Practice team. A significant amount of our patients are students and we understand how difficult it can be for our student population to be away from home, potentially for the first time, which is why we always try to provide a welcoming and easily accessible service. It is wonderful to read that you are happy your daughter is in safe hands with The Arch, it is feedback like this which reaffirms that we are indeed providing a great service, which our patients deserve. Many thanks Lesley Hyde Practice Manager

All the staff whom my relative and I have encountered at this practice have been attentive, kind and passionate in their care towards us. I find this practice to be brilliant because it is full of responsive and pro-active staff who go above and beyond for their patients. I would highly recommend this practice to any one looking for a place to register. I wish to say thank to all the staff, keep up the good work.

Review titled Excellent service
Rated 5 stars out of 5

I rang up this morning and was given a face to face appointment within 3hrs. Arrived at the surgery in good time and had my appointment on time with a great doctor. The NHS have received some bad press recently for getting doctors appointments, can only comment on my experience and that has been excellent - what ever the Arch Medical team are doing at the moment …. Keep it up, excellent service and cannot recommend enough. Well done.

I have been with the arch medical practice for almost 19 years now. although my previous gp retired, however of recent the gp who attended to me offered great service. he was approachable and explained in detail of what he was going to do. He went all out of his way that I got the appointments, I needed as my health situation had been lingering on for almost 2years, due to covid-19. as a health profession myself, I was grateful that I finally could book appointments on my day off, as it is extremely had with my busy life. The receptionist, were also approachable. The practice is more welcoming.
