  1. Review titled 111 Dorset Service

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Derrick Massey - Posted on 13 May 2024

    I’m currently down in Weymouth on holiday for a week. I became ill yesterday and decided to call 111. Wonderful service standards, a kind and caring operative who was really interested in my problem and wanted to help. She was professional, kind, understanding and showed me great empathy. She booked me an appointment at the Weymouth Urgency Care Centre today who were equally wonderful. Thank you so much for helping me in my hour of need.

  2. Review titled Great 111 service.

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by NinRos - Posted on 25 November 2023

    Phoned 111 with my daughter 16week old. She had a bad cold and was working hard to breathe- not worthy of an ambulance, but needed to see a doc- booked it at Bournemouth Urgent care centre - fab service by call handler and nurse. Thankyou.

  4. Review titled Fantastic call handler

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Mrs Linzi Howlett - Posted on 03 April 2023

    I called today as my daughter had fallen off her scooter and broken her tooth and was experiencing pain. Our call handler was amazing. This is the first time I have used this trust's service as I am currently on holiday at my friend's house. Our call handler is a true asset to your team and should definitely be recognised for their amazing customer service. Thank you so much.

    Phoned with an ongoing debilitating myalgia, fever and headache for 7 days over the Christmas period. Spoke to a call handler who booked me in 3 hours later. Great service. If you have a cold read the website.
