  1. Review titled Excellent care

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Adam - Posted on 05 April 2025

    We are very lucky to have such a terrific GP alongside the whole Downland Team. I was reviewed recently for a series of issues. All discussed in one appointment and appropriate actions made. Expert and compassionate care. Friendly. Efficient. Always gives the necessary time to discuss issues. First class NHS care.

  2. Review titled Efficient practice

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    Started the day by calling the helpful reception staff with a health query. Quickly escalated to see an actual GP that same day. The GP (a registrar) listened carefully to “my story” and carefully arrived at a prognosis based in my details. Carefully tested the variables before supporting an action plan that required an emergency blood test. Blood test and follow up triage managed with supreme efficiency. An excellent outcome.

    Dr fitted me in quickly for steroid injection. Without this I would have potentially had to take sick leave from work. Amazing service and very caring supportive gp

    The doctor listened to my symptoms and came up with a course of action to tackle them. She was thorough and I appreciated her checking I was happy with the approach she suggested.

  6. Review titled Finally a GP who actually listens

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    Only just joined the practice and so far, so good. At my previous practice, whatever you went in for, you'd always get fobbed off with the same narrative to take more painkillers. What a breath of fresh air that the GP I saw here listened to my concerns and ordered blood tests and called me back with the results and to make a follow up appointment. Very good so far.

  7. Review titled Reassuring and kind GP

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    I went to see my GP regarding a breast lump and I was really glad I did so. She was very helpful and reassuring and took action due to her seeing how anxious I was. I feel really lucky to have her as my GP.

    My GP provided excellent care. She was very informative and gave follow up instructions. She also reviewed any other concerns that I had which helped reassure that I was having the correct treatment.

  9. Review titled Caring Practice

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    This is a rural practice with integrated pharmacy. The staff are all caring and try their best to accommodate your needs in regards to appointment timing, accessibility to pharmacist etc. Within the confines of their national funding they provide as many extra preventative screening services they possibly can. I was called to the practice as I have had a recent cancer diagnosis and they wanted to check I was getting all the support I needed.

  10. Review titled Good, kind and listening practice

    My doctor was a very good listener and made me feel comfortable and accepted my husband being with me. He gave me a good half an hour to discuss my problems and explain a possible way forward.
