Review titled Great Service for a Monday Morning
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Jillyjampot - Posted on 20 May 2024
I have based my rating on my contact with the surgery today. On this occasion I was able to get through to the practice and reschedule a phlebotomy appointment without having to wait in a queue or to be told there are no appointments left for today. Wish all contact with the surgery were the same.

Dear Patient, Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on your experience with our practice today. We continuously review our telephone system to ensure the service is effective, as we fully understand it can be difficult to get through at peak times. We hope that any future contact with the practice will be equally satisfactory. Sincerely, Luke Swinden Operations Manager Ossett Surgery Best wishes Luke Swinden Operations Manager Ossett Surgery

Review titled Excellent
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Ian - Posted on 28 May 2024
I had a message yesterday from the practice asking me to contact for a regular review of my medication ( the practice is really on the ball with this). Phoned this morning and after waiting a short while was answered by a very helpful member of the team who not only made an appointment for a review over the phone ( very convenient - no travel) but was able to confirm reissue of my medication in the interim. Usual excellent professional and pleasant contact.

Review titled Extremely Accommodating
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Gemma - Posted on 19 April 2024
Moved back into the area, 28 weeks pregnant, with a complicated ask (on my own part) and the ladies at reception were very understanding, accommodating and friendly. Went out of their way to help and booked me in straight away with all the extra information I needed for various questions. Would highly recommend

Many thanks to staff at surgery who dealt with me today after my fall. A special thanks to the lady who came with me to take my dog home and then escorted me to the surgery where staff were waiting to attend to my injuries.

Dear Margaret, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such lovely feedback. We greatly appreciate it. Fortunately, one of our managers, Ciara, was on hand to assist you in getting your dog home and coordinating staff at the practice to care for you as well. We hope you have made a full recovery.

Review titled A welcome change to my usual experience
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Rebecca Page Nurse. - Posted on 13 March 2024
I try and avoid coming to the surgery if it all possible as I usually struggle to get through for an appointment and when I do they're all taken. However my visit to see the nurse (rp) today was a wholey different experience. I was called through on time, she was super helpful and we even discussed my other concerns and she was able to book me in with a GP for a telephone call the same morning. What a refreshing change! Thank you

Here's a revised version of your message: Dear Patient, Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on your recent experience at the practice. We regret to hear that you encountered difficulty in securing a GP appointment when contacting us. While we endeavor to manage appointment demand effectively, particularly during peak hours at 8 am and 12 pm, we acknowledge that it can become quite overwhelming at times. I would like to assure you that we are committed to improving our services. I would be more than happy to delve deeper into this matter and investigate our phone system further. If you could kindly email the practice with specific details, such as the date of your call and your phone number, marking it for my attention, I will personally ensure that your concerns are addressed promptly. On a brighter note, it was delightful to learn about your positive experience with Nurse R. Pape. I have shared your commendations with Nurse Pape and the entire team this morning. Once again, thank you for your feedback. Warm regards, Luke Swinden Operations Manager Ossett Surgery

Review titled Great practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5

Prescriptions clerk is always very helpful and also booked a separate appointment for me rather than me having to call up again to speak with another staff member. I have found it difficult to get appointments in the past but I feel this surgery has massively improved recently as both my kids have been seen the same day I called in January, were seen on time.
