  1. Review titled General practice

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    by Dave - Posted on 19 December 2022

    Generally quite a good service from doctors and reception staff, but booking an appointment to see the doctor can be trying at times. Why can't a patient pre-book an appointment in advance If the appointment service can be improved it will be fantastic.

  2. Review titled Nurse is fantastic!!!

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 11 November 2022

    I had one of the dreaded female checkups and she was amazing!!! A truly friendly, calming, confident nature about her and made me feel perfectly at ease and a thousand times better than I did with the anticipation of waiting to go in. A special people person, a rare gif

  3. Review titled Inadequate to serve patients

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Moni - Posted on 12 November 2022

    This surgery is appalling and patients are really struggling. I do not know how some comments are giving 5 star to this surgery. After CQC given them inadequate, suddenly so many positive reviews which I am afraid does not match with the service this surgery is providing. Getting an appointment here is next to impossible . No empathy towards patients. My mum who was lucky enough to get the appointment after 4.5 weeks was told by GP that she needs to book another appointment for BP check with nurse as it is not GP job to take blood pressure - really! What a joke , appointment was booked for high bp and GP told her to book another appointment with nurses for BP check.

  4. Review titled Worst GP surgery in the area

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Joe - Posted on 07 November 2022

    I got an appointment after 4 weeks and GP was clearly not listening to me. GP was so loud and non stop talking . I was literally in tears. Telephone lines are always busy, it took them 45 minutes to answer my call. I do not have courage to book another appointment in this surgery. Moving now to other surgery. Best of luck who are still enduring this surgery

  5. Review titled Great practice

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Majida - Posted on 25 October 2022

    I had a great experience with the receptionist “S”, who handled the appointment made for my nephew with great care and was very helpful and quick in making another appointment. She’s always smiling and never seems to be in a rush to finish with you. We also had a great experience with the nurse who done my little nephews injection, he was scared but she made him laugh and comforted him and within seconds the injection was done. Overall, they both were amazing and took their time with the appointments/ with any inquiries I had :)

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    The professionalism and efficiency l have experienced with the reception staff of this practice is well above and beyond my expectations. Friendly approachable and absolutely competent. They are an asset to the practice. As frontline staff their behaviour and attitude is fundamental to the overall impression of the practice and this team should be applauded wholeheartedly.

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    I arrived very unwell at the surgery, the receptionist was so kind and understanding, managed to fit me as an urgent appointment. The GP was very good asked questions very efficient and understanding she sent me to A&E where I was admitted for 8 days, thankyou for dealing so swiftly and professionally. The receptionist do a wonderful job in the most difficult circumstances, there are times when getting an appointment is frustrating and I do understand it, but in my case as an emergency I can only thankyou for your assistance kindness and help
