Review titled Professional, helpful appointment
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Lee Harding - Posted on 27 April 2024
Because I couldn’t physically get to a face-to-face appointment (because of intense lower back and hip pain), I received a phone consultation. The GP I spoke with genuine seemed to care about my issue and was very helpful, professional and thorough: she set up an appointment for me to have an x-ray to see if there’s something visibly wrong which would lead to better, hopefully successful treatment for the pain. I’d had a previous appointment that had been less thorough or successful - setting up an appointment for physio without investigating what the problem might be first - so this most recent phone consultation was everything the prior appointment hadn’t been. The GP who spoke with me should be commended.

Review titled New improved service
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Lilian Punt - Posted on 01 March 2024
I caught my leg on my open dishwasher door. It bled a lot and started to get very red all around the area. The leg felt very hot. I went to the pharmacist (as is suggested now). He said that I needed to see a Doctor as it looks infected. By now it was painful. So I rang the surgery at 8 o clock and was told that I was number 10 in the queue. However at 8.20 I was answered and I explained the situation. I was offered an appointment at 9.10 which I took. I was seen and prescribed an antibiotic cream which I collected from Boots and duly used. I’m pleased to say that it is working and the inflammation is reducing. I have to say that I’ve not been happy with previous interactions with this surgery for my partner. However, credit where it’s due, and I really hope that this is a turning point for them in the future. It is so important to be able to trust your Doctor and get the help that we need as soon as possible.

Dear Patient Thank you for your review We do take complaints very seriously, here at Eltham Palace Surgery and we do discuss these reviews as a team to see where we can improve the best we can. We have been trying tirelessly, to recruit a Salaried GP at the practice since one of the partners left over 2 years ago, but this has proved very difficult . This seems to be a nationwide concern in trying to recruit Salaried GP's into General Practice. This has resulted in us unfortunately , having to take Locums to cover the clinical sessions so that we can offer enough appointments to cover our practice list size . The good news is that we do have 2 Long term locums with us now and hopefully we will be able to recruit a Salaried GP in the New Year . Please do not hesitate to contact me at the practice if you have any other concerns , that I may be able to help with . With Kindest regards Jo Gilby Practice Manager

Review titled Delays putting patients at risk
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 11 August 2023
I was discharged from hospital, after having had an emergency operation. For both that hospital and my follow-up procedure at Guy's St Thomas, they needed me to have bloodwork done at my GP, Eltham Palace, in a week's time to ensure I did not have an infection (due to the nature of the emergency) or other complications. A week passed and I had heard nothing from Eltham Palace, whilst Guy's had already contacted me. Calling the GP, Eltham Palace initially told me to come in 4 weeks time. They claimed to never have received instructions for a bloodwork, and asked me to bring the discharge papers for scanning. As I was house-bound still from the operation, my wife went and provided those details, witnessing them scanning it. They asked us to call back next week, which my wife then explained would be way too late and was then asked to call next day or day thereafter. I called the day thereafter, and was told they didn't have my scanned discharge papers, and that there was a backlog of 3,000 scans for patients. Again we were asked to provide the discharge papers for scanning, and again my wife provided the and witnessed them scan it. I still do not have an appointment. In meantime, St Thomas has done my pre-op assessment, including bloodwork, and can only hope that the results are OK. When I contacted them, there was an air of being overworked, stressed and 'leave me alone' in the responses. The backlog also sounds like serious understaffing. But in the end, it affects the patients - it left me stressed and worried about my health, not knowing where else I could turn to. This also had a effect on my wife, as you can imagine. In all, not a pleasant experience.

Review titled Terrible Service
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 01 August 2023
Where to start? 1. Impossible to get any type of appointment that is less than 3 weeks away. 2. Reception staff that are rude, aggressive, and treat you with contempt. 3. Test results that don’t get relayed. There are much better GP practices about, anywhere but here. Be very cautious with this place, you will just be treated terribly. This post is anonymous for fear of reprisals from the surgery.
