Review titled Never ending cycle
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 20 August 2024
Unable to get an appointment. It's a never ending cycle of calling them at 8am and being told to try again tomorrow. It's starting to feel like hunger games. Trent site takeover was the worst thing to happen. Before I was able to at least book an appointment even if it was a couple of weeks away.

Review titled Shocking poor practice
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Marion Goldfeather - Posted on 06 June 2024
Yet again let down by repeat prescription, had thyroid surgery a few weeks ago Dr's informed and I need thyroid med daily gir my health as I have No thyroid, I checked with the surgery before a repeat letter was taken to the surgery 5 days ago ,still not ready,I did voice my concerns to my surgeon that my only real worry was getting these important tablets on time,I'm at the hospital out patients next week I will be telling my consultant that my fears are right from the very first repeat prescription request. My sister and her family are lucky to go to a 5 star practice in Stapleford maybe they should role out a working module for surgery's like mine. I feel let down,by my G.P.and it's not the first time. What is going to happen when I need another repeat prescription? I already know.

Review titled No appoinments or service left.
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 23 April 2024
Unable to get an appointment for a checkup & getting no help as unable to call at the 2 specific slot times to try to get one. No advance appointments, no help offered, no alternative advice but to keep trying to get an appointment approved or get so ill the hospital will deal with it. Or you can try an appontment online but these appointments are released daily also. The NHS app won't know which doctor you need, so Trentside will cancel the appointment & ask you to make an appointment, but then not give you an appointment. Maybe this helps reduce pateint waiting times, but not their health

Review titled Call back tomorrow.
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 22 April 2024
Attempted to make an appointment for a routine/known health issue. Advised no appointments given outside of 8am or 1pm, (despite website stating otherwise). In April NHS contract changes for GPs 2023/24 outlined that this system is no longer permitted without providing patient further advise or referring to another provider/care offered. No other solutions given. No help provided except advised to complain. Thanks to S**** the receptionist.

Dear Patient Thank you for taking the time to write a review and give us feedback. I am sorry that you are dissatisfied with the service you have received. The contract change you mention means that reception are able to signpost to appropriate services, if this didn't happen in this particular case then I am sorry. I have recently joined the surgery in June this year and will be reviewing how we can better communicate with our patients around effective signposting to appropriate services that are available locally for our patients. We are always grateful for patient feedback Kind regards Carly Widziernikow Practice Manager

Why is it taking 5 days for a repeat prescription request? Twice now my prescription hasn't been sent to the chemist (next door to the surgery) . I have asked what the problem is and been told and been give different reasons. I rely on my Meds but now having to put my request in earlier and earlier .

Review titled Disappointed
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Natasha Clarke - Posted on 21 May 2024
I have been trying to get an appointment for months for the same issue, and have received no help whatsoever. They tell me to call at 8am… so I do and I’m told there are no appointments left, and to call at 1pm when they release more, so I do, and I’m told there are no appointments and to call back the next day… it is a never ending cycle of being told the same thing! When I have finally managed to acquire an appointment in the past, I’m made to feel as though the problem I have isn’t being taken seriously… and I’m made to feel as though I’m being dramatic, or seeking attention. There is not enough understanding and research into women’s health… at any GP surgery, but this has become a bit of a joke. I’ve been made to feel as though I am completely on my own in trying to resolve the issue I’m having, and that I am going to have to find a way to deal with this myself, despite the fact I have been trying to do that for months. I wouldn’t recommend this surgery to anybody!

Dear Natasha Thank you for your comments, I am sorry you were dissatisfied with the service you received. Like all of General Practice, the demand for GP appointments exceeds the capacity at Trentside. Around 95% of NHS contact with patients occurs in Primary Care, whilst this only receives around 5-8% of the NHS budget. You may want to consider writing to your local MP to highlight that improved funding is needed in Primary Care. I have recently joined the practice as the Practice Manager and I would be happy to look into your experience to review the care provided. If this is something you would like me to do, please email the surgery for my attention on nnicb-nn.c84010@nhs.net We are always grateful for patient feedback and appreciate the time you have taken to provide this. Kind regards Carly Widziernikow Practice Manager

Review titled Why does the website say they are accepting new patients?
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Joy - Posted on 19 December 2023
Following an asthma review appointment with a nurse having told her I had been coughing for a few weeks, she said if I still had it in a few weeks to see a doctor to rule out 'anything nasty going on'. I'm still coughing 2 months later, have lost my sense of taste and smell and have bad acid reflux (didn't get the chance to tell the receptionist these last two, once she'd told me there were no appointments after I'd spent another half an hour waiting to get through on the phone she didn't ask if I had any other symptoms causing me concern). My point is that if a surgery cannot accommodate existing patients why are they allowed to say they can take on new ones? I am desperately worried that there is something really wrong but they couldn't be less interested. Saying they know how difficult it is (how can they when they haven't asked for any information and aren't medically qualified) but they 'cannot give what they don't have' and that's it is disgraceful. They also said to try calling back at 2pm 'but it's unlikely we'll have anything'. You see adverts on TV saying not to carry worries about cancer around with you, to see your GP, but this is impossible. My dad died of lung cancer. I am scared and they don't care. If you're looking for a GP don't choose this one, they have enough already that they can't look after.
