Dear Patient Thank you for your feedback, we apologise for you being unable to get through on the telephone. We have now implemented a new phone system, which we hope will make calling into the surgery a better experience. We have recruited more clinical staff to expand our appointment offering, however, when no appointments are available we do have to advise patients to attend an urgent care centre. Kind regards on behalf of MHMC

Review titled Appalling service- prescription desk.
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 02 April 2024
I have just received appalling service from the prescriptions counter. Unfortunately in need of urgent retraining in compassion and humility. People who come to the GP surgery are in a vulnerable position already and in need of help. Absolutely dismayed to experience firsthand how much the staff relish in patronising patients. Using phrases such as ‘well I don’t know how to make it any easier for you to understand’ and being scoffed at this morning. Mockingly checking off the calendar claiming I had ordered my prescription too early. From this particular desk there is a ‘nothing I can do’ and ‘how dare you ask me a question’ attitude. I was sighed at several times over a 2 minute interaction. No greeting or goodbye offered. I said ‘ok, thank you’ and immediately regretted it. It was manners on my part but not at all deserved. I have made a formal complaint via their website and suggest anyone else having a similar experience do the same. I have witnessed other people being left very upset. If reception staff are so vexed by patients and so loathed to help them, it begs the questions why they continue to work there?

Review titled Very very rude and unhelpful reception
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Vaughan - Posted on 12 March 2024
Problem with new inhaler on repeat prescription my wife tried to find out problem st surgery, receptionist was extremely patronising and very rude made my wife cry. My wife asked for a phone appointment with asthma nurse to sort out problem only to be told that there was no appointments till April nearly 3 weeks away, totally disgusting treatment, receptionist even tried to tell us how many times per day i should use my inhaler.

Review titled Useless reception
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 16 February 2024
Today I saw a pharmacist at the practice in market Harborough. He told me I need to see a doctor because of my symptoms. I turned around and got in the queue for reception There was five people in front of me and two receptionists who were serving other patients. One receptionist just walked away leaving a massive queue whilst the other receptionist was dealing with a lengthy query. No one in your office seemed to notice that the queue was not going down. after over half an hour in the queue of feeling ill and spreading germs it was my turn. No appointments. Ring 111 or go to Corby. Thanks.

Review titled Booking system not fit for purpose
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 05 January 2024
It’s impossible to get an appointment, been trying all week and a now going to A&E no other option. Everyone has to ring at 8am it’s a lottery, by the time you get though (up to 2hrs) appointments have all gone for the day, you have to start over the following day. 8am is when people are going to work so you are either unable to call or have to have time off work to call over and over again trying to get through. The refusal to book an appointment for any day in advance is totally ridiculous.

Dear Patient Thank you for your feedback. We apologise that you have found it difficult to obtain an appointment. We do offer appointments up to six weeks in advance, however, once all advance appointments have been taken, this means we can only book same day appointments. You can use the NHS app to book appointments, as we understand it can be difficult to get through on the phone lines due to the volume of calls we answer. There is also patient access where you are able to book on line appointments if you do not have access to this please contact the surgery you can do this by asking the GP a question via our web site which www.mh-bp.co.uk and we will assist you with this process. Again thank you for contacting us. Kind regards MH&BP

Review titled No Appointments
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 16 January 2024
It’s just impossible to see a doctor, this has to change or people will lose their lives. How do they get away with not seeing people face to face. I have never experienced anything like it. It causes anxiety when you have to ring as the receptionist will not give appointment. 111 is a waste of time. A & E is brimming with patients that should be seen in a surgery. I was too ill to stay there for hours on end. Why can’t the pharmacist prescribe to the ill. It’s now a case of go without and suffer.

I was going round in circles trying to get help from other services trying to find who I needed to speak to. The amazing receptionist at the Market Harborough Medical Centre (not allowed to name) was absolutely fantastic! Very very helpful and got me to the right people I need to speak to. Many Thanks!
