Review titled Outstanding reception staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Ann Aylott - Posted on 04 March 2025
On 28/2/2025 I contacted the surgery regarding a prescription for Cyclizine to combat nausea related to radiotherapy. The receptionist I spoke to arranged for the prescription to be upgraded to urgent and provided a barcode to enable me to take it to any pharmacy. The pharmacies in Wideopen are closed all weekend. She showed exceptional empathy, listening skills, professionalism,explained the protocol involved, kept me informed at every stage. I was able to get the tablets later on the same day and am extremely grateful. I was also examined by a doctor (working at the surgery as part of her training) regarding water retention in my legs and feet. After a thorough examination (a rare event due to pressure on GP’s lately) she referred me to a cardiologist and within 2 weeks heart failure was diagnosed and medication changed as necessary. Many thanks to both.

Review titled Unacceptable waiting times
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 03 February 2025
I called this morning at 8:50am and waited well over an hour to get through to the reception and was offered an appointment in two weeks time. This is unacceptable. We are asked to avoid using A&E but when we have an appointment to see the GP a fortnight after we ask for one, our symptoms could have potentially gotten worse and will require hospital intervention. This is not a sustainable system. We cannot be asked to avoid A&E to avoid hospital pressures but then be denied a reasonable appointment. Something needs to be fixed because, at least at the GP, there is something fundamentally broken about the system.

Review titled Fantastic service
Rated 5 stars out of 5

In a time when there is so much negativity about the NHS and GP’s in general, I feel like I must say how valued I feel as a patient at Wideopen Medical Centre. Having called today the receptionist was incredibly helpful, listening to my issue and sorted me out in a few minutes with an appointment for a service I didn’t know existed. She even sent a text message with directions and explained over the phone how to get there as the appointment was offsite of the GP surgery. I feel lucky to be able to receive such good service and care.

I spoke to the receptionist this morning and she was really friendly and helpful. I have never had problems at this surgery apart from it’s hard trying to get through the line to get an appointment, other than that I find the surgery really good and helpful

Review titled Very friendly and professional practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by B.Rutherford - Posted on 06 November 2024
Having recently moved into the area I have found this practice to be excellent. My recent requests for doctor and nurse appointments have been most helpful. The reception staff are friendly, helpful and professional and the medical team give considerate and practical advice. I've managed to get appointments within a reasonable time and tge follow up treatments have been swift and helpful.

Review titled Very efficient, helpful practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by B.Rutherford - Posted on 27 November 2024
Very patient and helpful organisation from the receptionist this morning 27th November, when sorting review visits out. Having recently moved to the area, I have found this practice to be organised and friendly, with all of the issues I have had being dealt with quickly and sympathetically.
