Review titled Appointments

It is impossible to get an appointment online with my GP and I've been trying for weeks. Why is only 1 week's appointments at a time available to see?

Dear Patient, Thank you for your taking time to provide feedback on your experience on booking online appointments. Online GP appointments are released over a 14,10,7,5,3 and 1 day period. All nurse and healthcare assistant appointments are bookable online. They are extremely popular and do get booked up very fast. If you cannot see an appointment available on a specific day then please do try again as appointments do open up once they reach their release dates mentioned above. For information, we have reviewed our whole appointment system and from 7th October 2024 we will have 70% of GP appointments bookable online I am happy to discuss this further if you wish. If you wish to do so, please call into the surgery and ask to speak to the Practice Manager or alternatively call the surgery on 01924 476363 to arrange a mutually agreeable date and time. Once again, thank you for your feedback as without it we cannot improve our service to you. Dawn Beadle Practice Manager

Dear Karen, I am sorry that we had to cancel your appointment at short notice due to staff illness. Karen had some spare capacity at the time of your arrival and I am glad that you were offered an appointment. I will let Karen know that you appreciated her seeing you.

Review titled So bad. So so so so so bad.
Rated 1 star out of 5

They just outright ignore my repeat prescription requests for weeks on end to the point where I run out and still hear nothing from them until, days after running out, I get a really snarky text from the receptionist that still doesn't tell me when my medication is getting processed. Definitely avoid if you can help it/actually want to ever get your medication on time.

If you would be willing to come into the surgery so that we can discuss it further in hope that we can avoid the same issue next time you order.

Review titled Accessibility
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 23 May 2023
This has been my GP surgery for many years and I am generally very satisfied with the swift appointments available and the service of care given my the clinicians and GPS. What I would like to bring to attention is the accessibility in this surgery. Recently due to mobility issues I have had to attend the surgery with both crutches and on a wheelchair a few times. Although there is step free access and a lift, my issue is with the doors on this route. Both the external and the second internal door are very old style push/pull doors which are also quite stiff and heavy. They also close back quite quickly so to stop them from closing back in you just as soon as you’ve opened them I had to hold them open with my body. I realise this is quite an outdated and troublesome system. I would expect the doors to be automatic or at least power or push button assisted for those with any accessibility or mobility issues.

Thank you for your positive feedback which is always welcomed. As you know the surgery is an old building and in need of some modernisation. We do have a schedule of works that we intend completing over the next 5 years. The lift replacement, our first major works project has now been completed and front entrance doorways will be replaced within the next 12 months. If you do need any assistance in the meantime please press the buzzer and a member of staff will be happy to assist.

Review titled Fantastic service
Rated 5 stars out of 5

I went in person to make an appointment with a specific GP as I received a text regarding my results which I was worried about, the lovely receptionist helped me book one an appointment and even explained my results, she made me feel very at ease, she was very friendly, I asked her if she was new as I’ve never seen her before, I told her she was very helpful and that she made me feel very relaxed, I loved her hair colour in fact we chatted for a bit and she was like a breathe of fresh air, I asked her name and said I would ask for her again if I had any questions. Great service and a great surgery 5 big massive stars
