Today I have visited the practice for a Cervical screening appointment. The 2 nurses were absolutely fantastic. They made me feel relaxed and they were lovely 🙂

Review titled Failing badly
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by William Astley - Posted on 30 September 2024
This practice has gone from bad to worse getting an appointment is appalling you call when ur supposed to and nothing is Available you go on the app to get an appointment and nothing trying to see a Dr at your Localsurgery with the actual Dr you’d like to see is impossible the last time I saw a Dr I actually walked in and told them I’d not move until I saw a Dr sooner or later it will be addressed but it’s looking unlikely as it’s getting worse if you’d like to discuss this further please feel free to call me and as for saying you’d actually like to talk to me is a joke you have my email and name …… but be warned I’m in pain and can’t see a Dr to discuss medications

Thank you for contacting us again to give your contact details. Unfortunately when a patient publishes a review, due to data protection we do not see any details unless the patient adds their name in the body of the message so we are unable to make contact. One of our clinicians has now spoken to you and hopefully has resolved your concerns. Kind regards Amanda Shaw, Business Manager for Your Health Partnership.

Review titled Shockingly bad
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 08 July 2024
I found I had a gp follow up telephone appointment by accident as I was looking through the Airmid app I had recently downloaded which is a bit like the nhs app. No one had told me of the appointment, no text etc. I waited for the appointment, literally phone in hand and after 15 minutes my phone for literally a millisecond, not even long enough for me to react to answer it. So I check the nhs app for the gp to have put a note on there saying I didn't answer! What!?!. So I call the surgery to have a bit of a moan but mainly, as a cancer patient, to get another appointment asap as my original issue for seeing the gp was still, well... an issue. Over 1 hour 20 minutes waiting to be told I'm number 1 in the queue they answer and immediately end the call. The experience is stress I can do without at the moment. I feel yhp and in particular Oakham Surgery is beyond saving. Lives are literally at risk due to them avoiding talking to their patients and their incompetence. Awful experience.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback and please accept our apologies for the negative experience you have had. We appreciate the frustrations of our patients with the long waits to talk to us on the telephone and the difficulty with getting appointments. We are pleased to announce that from 10th July, we are making significant changes to how we operate which includes stopping the use of Anima which we know was a constant source or irritation to our patients. However, the problems that patients experience in trying to access our service are wider than just which digital system that we use – if we replace Anima with something else without changing the way that we use it; without looking carefully at the way that patients can contact us to get the help they need, then people will likely experience the same problems. Therefore, we are launching our new clinical model which will change the way that patients get help at YHP. The new model focuses on the following key areas: • Care Navigation – helping patients to access the right service for their needs, this includes services that sit outside of YHP e.g. Pharmacy First, Sexual Health services, Minor Eye Conditions Service. • Continuity of care – helping patients to speak to the same clinician if they are experiencing an ongoing problem. • Different ways of accessing us – giving patients different ways to get in touch with us; online via our website or the NHS app; in person at reception; on the phone. • Moving away from everything on the same-day and giving options to book in advance or simply ask a question. • Vulnerable groups – giving dedicated access to patients whose circumstances make them more vulnerable. You should have received a text message or letter informing you of these changes but please visit out website: www.yhp.org.uk where you will see more information about these changes and how you can now contact us. Once again, please accept our apologies for your negative experience and we are confident that patients will soon start to see the benefits of the changes we are making. Amanda Shaw, Business Manager for Your Health Partnership.

Review titled Useless
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Ruth - Posted on 24 June 2024
Tried for 5 days to get an appt for my daughter who had a reaction on her face, pharmacy said see a GP, 111 said see a GP - ended up wasting the time of the hospital who said we should have gone to the GP. Then Thursday through to today tried to get in myself as have been feeling unwell, went to the pharmacy who said see the GP, walked round to the desk to be told no, use the app, which isn't working or go to the walk in. This place makes it impossible to see a GP. such a stress sand such hard work! Despite feeling light headed, and clearly not well they refused to even give me an appt the next day for a call back. (I just want a blood test!). with my daughter the GP was standing there while I was begging for someone to see her and give her some cream! Madness.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. Please accept our apologies for the difficulties you have had in accessing our services. We were aware of the frustrations of our patients and have been working hard over recent months to review how we deliver our services. You should have received communication from Your Health Partnership at the beginning of July informing you of the significant changes we have made to our clinical model which hopefully patients will see the benefits of over the coming weeks and we will be continually monitoring this and making changes where we feel we have not quite got things right - as with all major organisational changes, it takes time for things to bed in but we are confident our patients will have a much better experience when contacting us for our help. Kind regards Amanda Shaw, Business Manager for Your Health Partnership.

Review titled What is going on?
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 12 June 2024
I have now for the last two days tried to get my 10 year old son in to see the doctor. He has stomach pains and hot flushes. Originally I had been told it will take up to three days to be seen, Which to me is ridiculous as he is a child. When we eventually got some appointment options the link for anima didn't work and it was showing no appointments. I called today 12/06/2024 , Granted I didn't call at 8 as I am at work. But it was 8.30. I was told no appointments can be made and to take him to the walk in centre or call 111. I myself have an ongoing issue with my knee. I went to the hospital and was told to go back to my GP to arrange some physio, I walked in the same day and got an appointment that day to go to physio after the weekend. So why is it my son cant be booked an appointment when I call up at 8.30 and not 8.00? This used to be a great doctors surgery. Unfortunately now it is not

Review titled Awful surgery
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 30 April 2024
Had a few bad experiences here. Tried since January for dr to do me an osteoporosis blood test as per city hospital. I also have a fasting blood test. Keep sending me texts about the fasting one for pre diabetes not the one I want. Can’t get to speak to admin. Absolutely appalling. Would like admin at Oakham to call me. Receptionist said I could not see them.
