Review titled Appointments Service
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Stephen - Posted on 09 May 2024
I can readily understand why patients not arriving for appointments is inefficient. If one is ill on the day, telephones and finds oneself 33, 23, 28 in the queue, what is one to do ? Wait Lord knows how long at my expense, arrive while sick and infectious, or simply not turn up ? I know the answer, but over to you....

Rated 5 stars out of 5
by THC - Posted on 22 April 2024
I needed to change the time of my appointmrnt given. I called 01438-284444 was no.39 in queue, waited 44 mins got to no. 23 in queue and was Cut Off!! Is there a time limit on call waiting?? This has happened to me before, the waiting time to get through to the appointment line is always extremely long. Please look into this as very frustrating! Thank you

Review titled Vague information and poor service
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 26 February 2024
Letter inviting my elderly mother to an outpatients appointment gave no information as to what the appointment is actually for i.e. is it a clinic appointment or is it to actually have her mole removed. I tried to call twice for clarification. On hold for over an hour and gave up. Second time I was number 40 in a queue so gave up.

Had to cancel appointment at short notice, but received a call in the morning offering a rearranged appointment that same day. Slight delay in being seen, otherwise not a problem.

Review titled Excellent practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Alan Oliver - Posted on 02 August 2023
On arrival at the main reception I was greeted politely and directed clearly to the correct department on the first floor. I arrived about five minutes early and was pleasantly surprised that I was called more or less on time for my 10.20 appointment. Again I was welcomed warmly into the GP’s room. I was asked how I was feeling and after giving my details including what medication I was taking, the doctor listened with interest about my symptoms. She then took three separate samples from my infected nails and was prescribed medication and told how I should apply it. I was was also informed that I should hear about the results in approximately two weeks although I will be patient as I’m aware that results are generally taking longer than usual recently throughout the NHS. I have to say that I was very impressed by the doctors knowledge and obvious care for my wellbeing and I didn’t feel like I was being rushed for her to attend to her next patients. I came away feeling very confident that my symptoms will improve in the near future and I was very grateful for her time and attention to detail.
