Review titled Not a good experience
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 03 September 2024
Waited 15 mins- I’ve never been and waited lesss than 15 mins. Usually running around 20/30 mins late. Spoke with Dr was who running through some questions to tick off. Kept being interrupted and finally was told she wouldn’t be able to advise me, it’s my body.

Review titled Klinik system is frustrating
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 04 September 2024
I wouldn't recommend Ashford Medical Partnership as a whole, as the process of seeing a gp is much too difficult these days and the patient care isn't very thoughtful or consistent. I think it's wrong that they force you to do everything on Klinik and there is no other option. It is very frustrating when you have ongoing health issues, as you basically have to start from scratch every time you get in touch. You have to spend a great amount of time filling out all the details, symptoms and history, when this should all be on your medical record anyway. You used to be able to get a same day appointment to see a gp if you phoned early enough, but since Klinik, they seem to dismiss people a lot easier and you can end up with appointment 2-3 weeks in the future with someone who is not a qualified doctor. Gps are meant to be the first point of contact, but the A M P has made them very inaccessible. There also seems to be an attitude of treating one problem per appointment, but they don't consider the body or health as a whole. The doctors just don't seem to care about finding out the cause of things, just want you to go away as quickly as possible.

Review titled Vary poor Service
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Paul - Posted on 14 August 2024
Dissatisfied with the service. Takes to long to get an appointment. If you do it’s like two weeks away. When attend the appointment the surgery asks why you are there. Doh you sent me the time and date to attend read my message. Vary Rude receptionists. Doctor wasn’t vary interested . With poor communication skills . Now waiting ages for scans / MRI scan . ( still waiting) no have another message doctor wants to phone in three weeks time . Absolutely unacceptable it’s only a phone call . I can not understand the poor standard of Ashford medical Partners are allowed to carry on with this unacceptable service . ( careless attitude) nothing gets done . As you are moved around the three practices. Unfortunately so disappointed. Me and the Mrs are trying to find another doctors practice as we are in another catchment area to attend. And remove our selfs from Ashford Medical Partnership. This why I have give them I one star. Rating totally useless.

Review titled Willesborough Health Centre used to be much better.
Rated 2 stars out of 5

I found communication with the practice reception staff via Klinik and the no reply text messages to be frustrating and the language the reception staff used in response to a follow up query unhelpful, unqualified and uncoordinated.

Review titled Last minute cancelling appointments
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 13 August 2024
Cancelling important appointments for minors on the day of the appointment then only offering a reschedule in two weeks. When the initial appointment was routine yet I had to call to get an appointment and even that was a month wait time. Absolutely shocking!

Review titled Great Stuff
Rated 5 stars out of 5

I made a phone call to the practice and the person I spoke to was so helpful in every way, even filled in the 111 form for me, and I had an appointment very quickly. Great stuff.

Review titled Waste of Time
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Mr Wisty - Posted on 22 April 2024
After 3 reminders confirming my appointment I arrived in good time for my appointment. The automated check in service indicated I was in the wrong location and I should see the receptionist. The receptionist said I didn’t have an appointment until I showed the confirmations I received. After being initially sent to the wrong room I finally reached the Doctor only to be informed I was late. The appointment consisted entirely of the Doctor typing up my recent history and on completion she informed me my 10 minutes were up, no time for any consultation, no time for any treatment. I may as well have had my appointment with a medical secretary. I was advised if I wanted to raise any issues I would need to book another appointment with the receptionist, who advised that I would need to fill out another on line form and wait another 3 weeks in the hope of another appointment. This is just another example of how the practice avoid there duty of patient care.

Review titled Absolute Joke
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Nicole Davies - Posted on 09 April 2024
After completing an econsult for a ? water infection I was told to use pharmacy first; which I did on the same day to then be told by the pharmacist that due to my symptoms I should have been seen by a Dr the same day so there was nothing they could do for me, I then rang the surgery after waiting for 1/2 hour to then be told that I would need to do another econsult and explain in it about the pharmacy, I was then sent a text telling there were no appointments left that day to contact 111; no joy there as I could not get through! Therefore I completed a 3rd econsult and was told I would need to come to surgery do a wee sample then the Dr would look to see if I needed antibiotics, once I had done the wee sample the receptionist told me that the nurse had been messaged to come test the sample and that someone would be in touch, a bit confused as now I was day 5 of this pain and feeling of wanting to constantly pee; I was told that I did not need to wait, also the receptionist should be told that chewing gum whilst talking to patients doesn’t look very professional! As you can understand I am very frustrated with the service that I got over the past 2 days, I have not used the GP service much in my life until recently and I find it all quite terrible Where is the empathy? The reception team always seem to have an attitude to patients, I felt as if I was a nuisance being at the surgery which is not how it should be I myself work for the NHS in a clinic environment and if we treated our patients the way that I feel that I have been treated over the last 2 days we would have complaints galore! It would be nice to feel respected when we visit the GP surgery as really we do not want to be there and I have still had no response about my wee sample at 17.00hrs Regards
