  1. Review titled Appointment with pharmacist

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Lisa Barden - Posted on 09 August 2024

    I have waited since 1pm today for a telephone consultation with the pharmacist to discuss test results. It is now 8pm and have not received a phone call. I have tried 4 times to call the surgery to ask advice and each time was on hold for extended periods. This level of service is not good enough.

  2. Review titled Very Poor practice.

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 06 July 2024

    I have been registered at this practice for over30 years. For the last 3 years at least it has been a nightmare trying to get any apmts. When I try to book an apmt either by phone or on line even at 1 minute past 8am when the practice opens I'm told that there are no apmts available. I have not seen any available apmts on line for the last 3 years, yet the rude staff at the reception always tell you to book Apmts on line. I doubt if the Apmt Page actually works or ever updated. I was turned away when I visited the practice requiring to see a GP as I had a problem with my right Eye which eventually I went privately for assistance, which turned out to be Conjectivitis. I spend 4 days ringing for an Apmt to get an Apmt for Blood test Review which the practice Text me to Book an Apmt and was being told No Apmts available until I insisted and then immediately was offered a Telephone call or a Face - Face Apmt for the next day. !! This is how I got to see a Doctor in the last 3 years. If I do not have an Apmt to Review my medication when I'm asked to do so, how I'm I going to get my usual Repeat Medication as I'm a Type 2 Diabetes patient.

    Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry you are disappointed. Our appointment system is used every day with on the day appointments, pre booked appointments, urgent appointments, nurse appointments, pharmacists appointments. To maintain good patient care for our diabetics routine bloods are required so that medication is monitored. It is difficult to liaise with an anonymous patient. We do a zero tolerance policy which is in effect as we do not accept any type of shouting or demands to any member of staff. Regards, practice manager

  9. Review titled Appointment

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    I was very fortunate to get an appointment so quickly. However there was only 1 doctor in the surgery so my appointment was 50 minutes late.

    Thank you for your feedback. We do have two GPs on duty, one would be the duty doctor to clear all paperwork and prescriptions. If patients need more time than an appointment permits GPs will usually continue. This courtesy is given to all patients. Regards, practice manager
