  1. Review titled Covid jab

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 26 June 2023

    Had my booster jab, every thing was done very professionally, the only thing i found a problem was the parking, although there was a lovely lady doing her utmost to help everyone, I think the blaydon leisure centre would have been a lot easier with all the parking there is there, other than that everything great.

  6. Review titled Excellent service

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 05 May 2023

    Having problems with my back so saw my doctor who referred me for xrays and blood tests which I had 2 days later. I expected to have to chase the results but my doctor contacted me with them and also gave me an appointment for the following day for further blood tests. Whichever doctor I have seen I have always been happy with their treatment of me. I'm happy with the waiting times if my problem is non urgent knowing that if it was urgent I would be seen quickly

  7. Review titled Helpful

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    Phlebotomist is very approachable and lovely to speak to, always is positive and helpful. GPS also very helpful but appointments do take a long time to book and feel as though slots aren’t sometimes long enough to go through medical concerns. Other than that all ok

  8. Review titled Pleasant and Caring Practice

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Deborah Ashford - Posted on 05 February 2023

    I recently moved to the area and was recommended this practice. Since I registered they have brought my general health check up to date, suggested that I have a couple of vaccinations and helped with a problem. All the staff have been very helpful and friendly and as I was quite anxious due to the move that was very important. So far my experience has been very positive.

    I rang the reception at 8am and had an appointment within the hour. I know this is not the norm but I am glad the surgery took my illness seriously as I was need of urgent care. The doctor that seen me was very professional and made me feel at ease. Keep up the good work guys.
