Review titled This practice will make your illness worse
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Andrew - Posted on 22 November 2024
I have never in my 50yrs plus experienced such a shocking, quite disgusting level of service to a patient that has recently undergone major brain surgery. The receptionist didn't care that the brain surgery has left several complications, she was aggressive over the phone and left my wife in tears. Today, a fortnight later, after several promised calls and emails that were never sent to us we were given a time that a duty GP would call her, 1hr 30mins later we are still waiting. We are leaving the god-foresaken GP Practice, any right minded individual should do the same.

Review titled The worst
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 25 July 2024
Honestly, just save yourselves the time and find another GP. their website is broken, you will call for an appointment, and after they take everything you say they will just tell you to call tomorrow and this will go on and on until you switch to a different GP. save yourself the headache and find a different GP, I know I am.

Review titled Worst I’ve experienced
Rated 1 star out of 5
by John - Posted on 28 June 2024
This place is the most useless bag of bones. Just been told to give up on trying to ever get an appointment and to just head to walk in centre at another hospital from now on. What a waste of money to keep this place going. 0 patient care, and 0 ability to act. I thought Speedwell Practice in the same building was bad but this is just ridiculous. Also it was so casually said as if it’s obvious there is no point in trying to get an appointment, like I’m silly for even trying. Waste of money.

Review titled Terrible practice, awful service
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Mariana Dodourova - Posted on 18 May 2024
Terrible practice, absolutely awful! I have been with them for over 20 years but the service has deteriorated beyond description since the Covid pandemic. Prescriptions are delayed with no explanation given, in-person appointments are a thing of the past, admin staff are unhelpful, but above all it is impossible to make an appointment, any appointment!!! The receptionists say that they cannot make an appointment if you go to the reception - you have to call at 8:30am or complete an e-consult form. Sounds easy, doesn't it? Not really - never mind how early you call in the morning, all appointments are gone. Appointments cannot be pre-booked, i.e. if you want an appointment you have to keep calling at 8:30am everyday. How does this work for people who go to work or have childcare?? Then there is the e-consult form - it is either temporarily unavailable or all appointments for the day are gone. Really?! Ok, I tried every day for early 50 days - at 8:30am, 8:45, 9am, 9:30am - and each time the appointments were already gone!!! How is this possible at 8:30am, given that appointments cannot be pre-booked? I can evidence my claim as every time I took screenshots showing date and time. In short, it is impossible to make an appointment. I tried to speak to the receptionists and explained all of the above but the response was that "this is the new NHS system". Doubt it. This practice defeats the purpose of its existence, which is to reduce the number of patients going to hospitals. In fact, a patient of this practice has no choice but to go to a hospital if they need medical attention. Absolutely ridiculous, dangerous and must be investigated.

Review titled Difficult to get appointments
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Elaine Liffchak - Posted on 13 April 2024
I had my pneumococcal vaccine 2:40, 18 Dec 2023 at 13:30 to 14:30, then my Shingles vaccine as I'm 65yrs old. Cough started 3 weeks later - pneumonia. March '24 needed antibiotics + chest x-rays showed left lung pneumonia). Then needed 2nd + 3rd antibiotics - which didn't work I had to go to A&E following Monday 18/3/24 (7hr wait 100 visitors) at Barnet Hospital. They gave me blood tests, chest x-rays they measured my oxygen saturation (I had trouble breathing) and put me onto a drip as I was continuously sick for 2 days previously so put on am IV Drip and prescribed a week of anti-sick tablets, also another week of anti-biotic. The next day I had to request a steroid spray 'Clenil Midulite' from my GP to be taken 2x per day x 2 doses. I'm slowly getting better but I think it's all because I had the vaccines in December?! I have an ultra scan appointment next Saturday 20 for my kidneys at Barnett Hospital.

The e consul you have to fill in just to get an appointment is infuriating , just answer the phone like other practices do. Very poor service , unable to get an appointment
