  1. Review titled Fast efficient service

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    A great experience from phone call to seeing practice nurse. I was lucky receiving cancellation, but from call to seeing practitioner was less than 2 hours! Nurse was thorough, empathetic and friendly.

  2. Review titled Great practice and staff

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by DJohnston - Posted on 13 January 2023

    All the team at the practice do a great job under difficult National Health Service pressures. I’ve seen two of the younger male Drs over last few years and both have been excellent showing professionalism, empathy and compassion that in all honesty has kept me alive. All the team go out of their way to help. Best Doctors surgery I’ve ever used and having lived all over the United Kingdom and Cumbria I’ve experience of many. A highly progressive practice that cares. Thank you.

  3. Review titled Safe Practice

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 01 February 2023

    I have been a patient at Castlegate Surgery for a number of years. I find that the Dr’s and all the receptionists are all so helpful and kind. I have seen a Dr when it has been necessary and find it annoying when so many people complain and hardly any say thank you. My husband feels the same and we are glad to belong to the practice.

  5. Review titled Great Care

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    I was seen by the Pharmacist who advised and arranged for me to receive a triage call from the GP. The GP called within 15 minutes and saw me the same day - she persuaded me to go to hospital to receive treatment and made all of the arrangements for this to happen. I was against going to hospital as I was frightened but she was able encourage me to accept this was the most appropriate course of action in order for me to get better. If it had not been for the excellent care provided by both the Pharmacist and the GP, I would not have received the urgent diagnosis and care that I needed at West Cumberland Hospital.

  7. Review titled First contact practitioner

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 15 November 2022

    Got an appointment after calling reception. Your recorded message is shorter thank you! The appointment was for 3 days later which was amazing. I was having problems with my knee which I needed advice on. I got all the advice I needed re injury and exercises so I can help myself to get better, this is so much better than having to wait in pain for an overstretched physio appointment and I feel others could benefit from this early intervention. I am very happy I did and wish to thank the very kind and compassionate care I received from your first contact practitioner. I can't help feeling this will stop any condition worsening and would help so many. Thank you a small change in your service is making a big difference to me.
