  1. Review titled Blood test

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Sandra Sapey - Posted on 25 April 2023

    I had a text from the surgery asking for a comment on my visit of 24th Appril for a blood test. I couldn't follow the information given so have decided to give a review on here! I had my blood test - not a mark on my arm today - and had good chat to the nurse who happened to be the COPD nurse at the surgery. I found out that my current meds for the above needed a bit of a tweak and a prescription was ordered for next day collection. The appointment was really good and I felt loads better after some things were explained to me. Let's hope that after the past couple of years we can get back to a sort of normality and renew the relationships we had with staff before covid. I have to have an appointment with the COPD nurse in 3 months and was disappointed that I couldn't pre-book but I was promised that I would get a text to remind me to book nearer the event. All in all a very successful trip.

  2. Review titled Disgusted

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Mrs levin - Posted on 04 April 2023

    A receptionist is not helpful to a cancer patient that needs blood tests at a certain time for the hospital. Refuses to make the appointment for the test 3 weeks in advance and then when there are no appointments, he sends a 73 year cancer patient 25 miles to get the blood test done at a hospital, rather than speaking to the nurses at the surgery to see if they can fit the patient in.

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    Phoned with concerns in the morning, full examination completed in the afternoon with clear plan for further investigations. Seen by Dr M, phenomenal Dr whom was extremely understanding and realistic with timings and expectations. Excellent service, very efficient and keen to resolve any issues.

  5. Review titled Speedy response

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Jan Hatchell - Posted on 08 December 2022

    I had been suffering with a bad cough after having a virus for a few weeks previously. After a triage call I was given a face to face appointment, which led to a diagnosis of a chest infection. After a week of antibiotics I was feeling so much better, I realised how unwell I had been. So grateful for being seen and treated so quickly. I only have positive experiences with all the team at Watton! Thank you

    Ive had a few occasions whereby my 1 year old daughter has needed to see a doctor with difficulties breathing. We’ve been seen by the same doctor each time and he was nothing but incredible in such awful circumstances. Thank you

    Filled in the online form and had a phone call within 10 minutes. After speaking with the GP I had a face to face appointment & examination within the hour ( over lunchtime) you couldn’t ask for better.

  8. Review titled Polite and courteous receptionists

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 22 September 2022

    Receptionists were extremely polite and arranged an appointment later that day, after a 5minute wait on hold. The fact that they manage to remain professional and courteous despite the amount of abuse they seem to get, should be commended! Somehow people seem to think the high number of calls they receive is their fault..!

  9. Review titled Fast response

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Stuart - Posted on 08 December 2022

    Today my daughter had a choking episode at school where she required her support teacher to do abdominal thrusts to clear the blockage. Advised to seek medical advice I contacted the surgery and spoke to a lovely lady who took all the details and was in contact with the duty doctor and with 10 minutes on the phone the doctor advised that if she is her normal self and eating and drink there is no reason for medical intervention. Thank you.
