Review titled Excellent Service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Gerald Richardson - Posted on 04 November 2024
I find the service at this surgery to be exemplary. It is always possible to obtain an appointment even at short notice. The GP’s are professional and never rush appointments. The admin staff are efficient and supportive. Phone calls are answered quickly without excessive queue times…..Following my recent appointment I called the practice manager to offer feedback. She was genuinely receptive to what I had to say.

Review titled Fantastic service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Ron - Posted on 09 July 2024
I joined patient access on line at 8am, booked an appointment with the doctor within the hour. He examined me and decided to refer me to a physiotherapist. He went on his computer and said can you wait 30minutes? A bit taken aback he explained that the physio was just across the corridor. I then had an assessment by the physio and given exercises to carry out, then instructed to book a further visit tba.

Review titled Last minute appointment
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Gdavies - Posted on 31 January 2024
Called the surgery around 45 minutes before closing with an issue with my five year old son. Was asked to bring him in ASAP for a checkup to make sure he was okay. Went straight there and saw doctor within a few minutes and was thoroughly checked over. Absolutely fantastic practice. This is not the first time we have had a last minute appointment with a issue with one of our children and they have always been accommodating and very helpful. The doctors here are lovely, brilliant with children, understanding and very very helpful. Thank you! These guys are fantastic.

Review titled Amazing Practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Leigh Riby - Posted on 06 January 2023
Once again, the receptionist and GP go over and above to help with what is sometimes complex issues related to my illnesses. Sorted my issue immediately. Took the time to listen, were friendly and acted on my request. Thank you again for your hard work.

Review titled Can't get appointment
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by H Kyle - Posted on 27 February 2023
Saw Doctor on 10th January said a follow up appointment required in 8 weeks time. Been trying to book an appointment in advance but unable to do so online as named doctor not showing on list. When I phoned to try and book in advance told to phone up 8 a.m. on the day as may be appointments that day. If a repeat appointment is required why can't it be booked it in advance. The current booking system is not fit for purpose and is very frustrating for patients. Especially older patients who may not have internet.

Review titled Phone system needs attention
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 03 January 2023
Normal practice would be to say "welcome to Chainbridge Practice" or something like that at the start of the phone response. The website makes no mention under "contact us" that you cannot phone between 12.30 and 1.30 pm, which is probably the easiest time for working people to ring during the day. Simple things but shows a lack of awareness.

Review titled Very efficient service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Gary Groves - Posted on 11 January 2023
Ordered a repeat prescription on Tuesday morning 10th January. Repeat prescription medication was processed the same day. Excellent service from the practice especially with current additional pressures constantly reported. Fairly new to practice and extremely impressed with the efficiency of all concerned in my interactions so far. Clearly a well organised team. Many Thanks

I can't praise t.he 'Chainbridge Medical Practice' highly enough. My experience during a difficult 2022/23 has been dealt with in a caring and understanding manner, with practical application/results. The input of every aspect of the Practice has been first class. The team of receptionists exceptional, approachable and friendly. Truly grateful, Anne Cook

Review titled Best practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5

GP surgerys get bad press so often but I don't have a bad word to say about Chainbridge. The receptionists have gone above and beyond when needed and have always been friendly on the phone even though we all know how busy they are. I have never once struggled for an appointment for me or my young son, even when things have cropped up later on the day. I've seen many different GPs and all have been compassionate, caring and patient. I've always felt listened to and respected. The nurses are also very friendly. I think it's an excellent practice.
