Review titled Extremely professional staff member
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Kathleen Drummond - Posted on 20 January 2025
I was a patient of one of your nurse practitioners today and I have to give credit where credit is due. She listened to my concerns, gave medical advice regarding my concerns and after examination I left feeling less anxious about my medical concerns. She was very professional and thorough in her possible diagnoses also giving further advice regarding prescription medications. I did not feel like a number and a limited time slot. She made me feel so a lot ease. She is a credit to your practice. Thankyou

Review titled Friendly and professional staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Philip Knaggs - Posted on 07 January 2025
Was seen for a number of issues, all dealt with professionally. Was seen on time (was even early). Would prefer a better way of making ab appointment rather than waiting direct until the practice opens at 08:00. I've never had success with the phone.

Dear Philip Thank you for leaving feedback to the Practice. We are delighted to hear that you have been dealt with professionally for a number of issues, and you have left the Practice happy with the care that you have received. We fully understand your frustrations with regards to booking an appointment. We are currently looking at way to improve telephone access for booking appointments. In the meantime, we do offer appointments available online, if you have online access set up (if you do not, please pop into the Practice with photographic ID and we would be happy to initiate this). We also offer eConsult, which is available via our website and review directly with a clinician. As we make further improvements to our booking system, we will share this with our patients. Thank you again for taking your time to provide feedback to the Practice, all of which will be taken on board. Kind regards Yarm Medical Practice

Review titled Great practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Jodie short - Posted on 28 January 2025
Over the last 24 hours both myself and my daughter needed to be seen. On both accounts I was able to get an appointment through the app and the Dr was excellent with my daughter and went above and beyond with me, taking time to listen and discuss next steps.

Review titled Great
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Samantha Higgins - Posted on 23 December 2024
The gentlemen who seen me was great. He was very knowledgeable and explained everything to me in detail in a way that I understood. He put me at ease straight away and was caring and compassionate. I left feeling like he truly cared about my well being, he listened carefully to everything I said and offered advice and assistance, which has given me hope. I couldn’t have asked for anything more. He is a credit to the team and the surgery. Thankyou. Also the reception staff were very friendly and helpful.

Review titled Terrible
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 19 December 2024
The system is all wrong and doesn’t work. You can’t attempt to make appointments unless you ring at 8. When you ring at 8 the phone line is full. If you eventually get through you get told all the appointments have gone. Took a week to get an appointment. I was prescribed antibiotics for 5 days and felt remarkably better however after 3 days after the dose had ran its course the symptoms were back. Called in to see if it could be repeated as it seemed a waste of time to make another appointment when we know what’s wrong to be told no you need another appointment. Back to square one

Dear patient Thank you for taking your time to leave your feedback. I am sorry to hear your recent experience has not met your standards. Unfortunately, as we approach winter pressures, the current demand for appointments is outweighing our current capacity. Our appointments are released at a variety of times throughout the days and for a differing number of days in advance. The Practice does have appointments available to book online, if you have the means to do this. If not, please call into the Practice with some photographic identification and we can set this facility up for you. We do also offer an eConsult service, which is available via the website. This gives the patient the opportunity to provide some simple details in response to some appropriate questions, for the GP to review and decide on the next course of action. Please be mindful however, to ensure the safety of our patients and our staff, eConsults are capped to a safe level in a similar way to our appointments. Whilst I appreciate your frustration at not being able to obtain a further course of antibiotics at your request, the Practice needs to ensure patient safety and ensure clinical symptoms require further antibiotics. This would therefore require a further telephone call or face-to-face appointment with a clinician. I would like to thank you again for feeding your frustrations back. They will be helpful when looking at how we can improve our current ways of working. Kind regards Yarm Medical Practice

Rang at 8.00 am and had an appointment for 9.30, the Advanced Care Practitioner was very helpful and supportive, put me at ease, also provided a phone follow up which was reassuring that I could have that contact a few days into my treatment. A great experience

Review titled Great staff and practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by James Hunt - Posted on 18 November 2024
I went to see the staff from here for an appointment and he was very professional and gave great advice and service to me. I am not so keen on seeing new doctors usually as I suffer from anxiety however he made me feel at ease and comfortable talking to him.
