  1. Review titled Patient, full of good humour, and personable.

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by James Morris - Posted on 02 October 2024

    I’ve had the pleasure of a number of appointments with Dr. C and each time I do I’m left feeling much better about any medical issues I am facing. He is pragmatic, competent, appropriately humorous, and most importantly in possession of a fantastic bedside manner that makes me feel able to discuss delicate manners.

  2. Review titled Flu and Covid booking system

    Rated 3 stars out of 5

    The practice sent me an invitation to book a Flu and Covid jab, 10 September, with a Web link. Invite lasts 7 days. I used the link within 2 days, no appointments available. Now what?

    Dear Patient Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback on our Practice. I am sorry that when you clicked on the link to book your Covid and flu vaccination there were no appointments available. We had a huge uptake for appointments and are currently looking to add further clinics as soon as possible. Please do telephone the Practice and our Care Navigator team will work hard to find you an appointment. Kind Regards Donna Reed Practice Administrator.

  3. Review titled Great Experience

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 01 November 2023

    I am a new patient at this practice and I was extremely impressed with all the staff during my first visit. The receptionists on the phone and at the practice were so welcoming and helpful, the nurse who did my blood test was so lovely and did such a great job and the doctor I saw for my initial consultation was super helpful and knowledgable, but still approachable and kind. I never leave reviews but I would like to give credit where it is due. Thanks so much!

  5. Review titled Let patient speak

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    I have never had a problem with this practice. But would like to give feedback. I called to arrange appt for my father of 91yrs old just out of hospital. I was 36 in Que got to number 11 and called dropped so I called back and was in number 21 again. When I got through I said letting you know my father home from hospital and before I could say anything else the reception interrupted me by saying we will get a discharge letter as if I was waisting her time. I was the one on the telephone over an hour . I was to make appt for bloods to be checked if she had let me finish. Take time and listen

    Dear Anonymous Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback on your experience with the Practice. I am sorry that you had a problem, please be assured that we take all feedback seriously. We are aware that currently there is a wait for calls to be answered and we are currently looking at ways to reduce the wait times, including ensuring all staff are manning the phones at peak times. I am sorry that the Care Navigator cut you short and made you feel that you were wasting her time. I have fed your comments back to our Care Navigator Manager in an effort to ensure that this doesn't happen again. Thank you for leaving feedback it enables the Practice to reflect and learn to enhance the services we offer. If I can be of any more help then please do not hesitate to contact the Practice via our email of lscicb-mb.a82026@nhs.net and I would be happy to help. Kind Regards Donna Donna Reed Practice Administrator.
