  1. Review titled Smear test

    Rated 3 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 21 August 2024

    I have just been to have my smear test with a nurse. She was absolutely brilliant so friendly and helpful. I know a lot of people are scared to have this done and think it hurts but it doesn't. It's a few minutes out of your day that can make sure you have more days to come. Get tested girls

  4. Review titled Great appointment with nurse

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Emma - Posted on 24 July 2024

    I had a smear test appointment at the centre with a nurse, who was absolutely wonderful. She put me at ease and was so helpful and kind. She also advised doing 15 squats ahead of the procedure, which really helped as this is the first time I haven’t felt any discomfort at all during a smear test. Lots of women worry or put off booking an appointment but know that you are in great hands here!

  5. Review titled Brilliant Patients Services

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    by Jasmine - Posted on 12 July 2024

    I would like to thank the Patients Services Team who take the call and man the Reception Desk. They are so helpful and always make sure they have done their best to deal with your case. In the last couple of weeks, I have had to be seen at short notice several time and I did. Also I had to cancel and rebook various appointments several times and was accommodated each time. The doctors are very good too. So altogether a great surgery.

    Attended for a second time in respect of cervical screening, first attempt unsuccessful ( not the nurses fault)- Agar was patient and understanding the first time and was even more so on the second occasion. Second attempt successful, many thanks Agar.

  7. Review titled Going round in circles

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Mr H - Posted on 20 June 2024

    Audiology visit suspect ear infection - see my GP. Phone Q for Reception told me to see Pharmacy via Community Referral. After ring ring over a week, they say cannot give me antibiotic over 16. Phone doctors - queue for 45 mins, now fully booked. Call 111 to try to get appointment! This is just ridiculous- third world would be ashamed. A one minute look will confirm or otherwise.

    Dear Mr H, I am sorry to hear that you have experienced difficulty obtaining an appointment at the Practice. General Practice is currently facing an unprecedented level of demand. To aid with the current demand the Community Referral scheme was introduced. This allows a pharmacy to assess you and prescribe appropriate medication for specific symptoms. I am sorry that when you attended the service, they were unable to do this for you, I appreciate that this will have been frustrating for you. Unfortunately, the increased pressure on the service means that appointments are in high demand. To ensure clinical safety for our patients, once this demand has been reached it would be unsafe to add more patients to the list. Please be assured that our staff are working to their capacity on a daily basis. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. Kind regards, Amy Patient Experience Team

  8. Review titled Great experience during routine screening test

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 31 May 2024

    The nurse I saw for a routine screening test this week was outstanding. She put me at ease, provided just the right amount of information and was courteous throughout. Staff like this really make patients feel cared for and respected. Well done to the lovely lady in consultation room 11.

    Dear Lenny, I am sorry to hear you are dissatisfied with your recent experience at the Practice. Healthcare nationally is seeing a dramatic increase in demand especially within General Practice. This means phone lines are busier than normal and wait times on the phone are incredibly high and we are seeing or consulting with more patients than ever. We are recruiting for additional Patient Service Assistants to help manage this demand. However, to ensure clinical safety to our patients we can only offer a set number of appointments per day. Once this capacity has been reached, you may be signposted to alternative health provision, such as the walk-in centre, to ensure a same day assessment. We understand that increased demand is frustrating for our patients, and we want to assure you that we are working hard to help manage the increased demand on the service. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. Kind regards, Amy Patient Experience Officer
