  1. Review titled Lack of Patient Quality Care

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Judith Farrell - Posted on 04 March 2025

    How long does it take for The Ryan Medical Centre Practice Manager to get back to me? I have been waiting since 12.30 pm, Friday 28 February for her to get back to me. Was told by the receptionist that she was in a meeting when I first phoned at 12.30, I then phoned at 3.00 pm and asked if she was out of the meeting to be told she was at lunch and they would leave her another message to call me back. I never received a call back! Waited until 17.11 pm Monday 3rd March as I had not received a phone call back. Was told by receptionist she wasn't in! I am still waiting today Tuesday 4th March and it's now 10.53 am and have still not received a call back! What has happened to their Patient Quality Care? I have been with The Ryan Medical Centre since 1990! I had a total hip replacement on Saturday 8th February and had concerns on Wednesday 26th February as my leg had swelled. I was able to see the Doctor who sent me immediately to Chorley Hospital to the Deep Vein Thrombosis clinic. I had a scan the following day which thankfully showed I didn't have a Deep Vein Thrombosis, however my leg was still swollen hence the reason for me trying to get to see the same Doctor for continuity of care. Was told there were no appointments to see her and to phone back at lunchtime the following day. I phoned at 12.30 Friday and was told there were no appointments to see the Doctor, so I told the receptionist this wasn't good enough and I wanted to speak with the Practise Manager. I am still waiting!!!!! Edit - this photo was what my leg looked like last Friday 28th when I needed to see the Doctor. The swelling has since reduced but I wanted to know why it was swollen so much.

    Outstanding care shown to today whilst having vaccinations. The GP and vaccination team have been empathic and supportive. I would highly recommended the surgery to others for the support and care demonstrated whilst delivering health care. The staff delivered person centred care.

    The Ryan Medical Centre is a nice place to go for medical attention. They attended to us well even though we came some minutes late to the appointment time. The nurse was smiling all through and gave us every assistance we needed. I am glad I choose Ryan Medical Centre as my GP.

    Saw a new male doctor who I never seen before this was my first appointment with him and saw him a couple of times he was very kind and took time to talk to me and explain things when I wasn't very well. He was easy to talk to and very supportive. Would highly recommended him to anyone.

  7. Review titled Fantastic Doctor

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Bekki - Posted on 18 April 2024

    Having experienced 3 bereavements in 12 months I've had a few appointments/tests in the last few months due to physical symptoms of grief and today although I was worried about the results, the doctor was fantastic. First time having an appointment with him, but what a relaxing and calming nature he has. Even though the results were good news, there were a few options to consider and the doctor was thorough in explaining them all. I left the appointment feeling calm, relaxed and more able to make the best decision for me. Many thanks.

    Had an appointment with the physiotherapist today and he was absolutely fantastic, so helpful, diagnosed my back problem, gave me advice and follow up exercises to ease the pain. Very knowledgeable and very professional and felt very comfortable and in good hands. Definitely recommend seeing Mr Marem.

  9. Review titled Unhelpful

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Andrea Hudson - Posted on 09 October 2023

    I booked a covid vaccination at this practice for my 98 year old mum and I had previously rung to enquire if she would be able to have a flu vaccination at the same time and was told by a receptionist that she would . When I asked the nurse at the appointment if she could give my mum the flu vaccine too she replied that she couldn’t as she had to use the vaccines for patients at her practice only and was inflexible in this. Her reaction was rude and no apology was given for us having been given wrong information which has cost us time as I now have to find somewhere else to take my mum that fits in with work and where we can park easily etc. I was frankly left disappointed in the service we received and how little regard was shown to my elderly mother’s well-being.

    Dear user, This service is run by Bridgedale PCN and not The Ryan Medical Centre, the service is based at The Ryan Medical Centre because it is the most accessible. Unfortunately not all surgeries provided the service with flu vaccines to vaccinate their own patients however, all practice's have been holding their own flu clinics at each surgery. We are sorry that you have been given incorrect information by your practice, regretfully if we have vaccinated your Mother it would have resulted in another patient missing out on their vaccine that was already pre-planned. I advise that you follow this up with your registered practice to ensure your Mother is vaccinated. Kind regards, Michael Deputy Practice Manager

  10. Review titled Great staff

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Mrs Patricia M Swallow - Posted on 26 October 2023

    The Doctors are very kind and the health care assistant I saw very efficient and showed empathy. Also it was very easy to get an appointment and the follow up telephone appointment for the blood test results was spot on time and I did not feel rushed. Given ample time to have everything discussed and to ask questions
