Review titled Reasonably good
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Andre Grys - Posted on 22 October 2023
Difficulty in actually meeting a doctor at the surgery. Extended periods in a queue on the telephone each morning. I work nights and the limit of telephoning only in the morning to book an appointment is problematic. Why not all day calls to book an appointment within the next few days? That said, the reception staff, support staff, nurses and doctors are very good and provide a great service.

Dear Andre Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry to hear that you have had difficulties in accessing the surgery. We do offer pre-bookable appointments that are released throughout the week, these are available to book via the surgery, NHS App and SystmOnline. We also offer the digital platform, Doctrin. The platform is for non urgent concerns. Cases can be submitted from 3pm until 8pm Monday to Friday. Kind Regards Emma Wilson Patient Services Manager

Review titled Disgusting the most empathetic doctor.
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 11 October 2023
I was so disappointed with my appointment yesterday. After feeling like my mental health has gone down hill over a number of years but being too worried about seeking help. I finally felt at breaking point and there was no other option. I was so anxious about going in. The doctor I saw was so rude, unempathetic and yawned 5 times why I was visibly so upset talking about what had lead me getting to this point. I nearly walked out. I was just prescribed antidepressants which I was given no information about and no other information how to help myself. I'm honestly appalled by how I was being treated. Working in the NHS myself I would expect so much more empathy, if I treated someone how you treatment me yesterday I'd be disappointed in myself.

I met 4 different members of the Sheepmarket team during my visit and all had very polite, happy and friendly attitudes which really helped my appointment go smoothly

Good practice for the size Stamford. Very quick service for both flu and covid vaccinations. They needed to replenish their hand sanitizers, majority were empty. Did mention to a member of staff.

I went on line and got a choice of 2 times on the same day i went on line. Got to the surgery and only waited less than 5 minutes before the doctor called me in. He was very helpful and checked all details of my pass history.

Review titled Huge difficulty to get appt
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Hilary jelen - Posted on 14 October 2023
Having tried for weeks to get an appt as requested by gp as a follow up including visits to practice, requests for call back from duty gp system online, Doctrin I eventually got an appt which was organised through another very helpful Gp gp at the practice I have no complaints once I saw the gp who had requested to see me….. helpful, informative and offering a much needed menopause service. I do understand the problems in nhs having worked there for years and the chronic shortage of gps but frankly Lakesides appt system is dreadful. I am tenacious but how on earth very elderly, vulnerable patients who do not access internet cope ? This seriously needs addressing

Dear Hilary, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I apologise for any inconvenience you experienced and the frustration you felt regarding access to our surgery. Our primary goal is to provide exceptional care, support, and communication to all our patients, and it’s disheartening to learn that we fell short of your expectations during your recent experience. The doctrin platform is for non-urgent concerns and we release pre-bookable appointments throughout the week via the NHS App, SystmOnline, and telephone access. If a follow up appointment is required, the clinicians often book their own follow up appointments, I am sorry this did not happen for you. I would be happy to discuss your concern further, please contact me at the surgery and I will be happy to investigate your concerns further. Kind Regards Emma Wilson Patient Services Manager

Review titled Turning the corner?
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 21 October 2023
Was offered a same day appointment either by phone or in person, went for in person. Locum doctor was brilliant, outcome was a cortisone onjection needed. This is the big downer…he then had to contact reception to put me on a waiting list for this. On asking at reception they couldn’t give me a timeline just a we’ll contact you. Several years ago needed the same and the Dr did it there and then. I’ll wait for their phone call until I pass a full judgment.

Dear Patient, Thank you for sharing your experience from visiting the surgery. I am sorry we could not offer you the injection during your appointment, not all clinician's are trained to offer Cortisone injections which is why you were added to a waiting list. We will contact patients from the waiting list to schedule appointments and make sure that everyone receives timely and appropriate care. We understand the importance of timely injections, we will make every effort to keep you informed and ensure that you receive your injections in a timely manner. Kind Regards Emma Wilson Patient Services Manager
