  1. Review titled Great practice

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 06 September 2024

    Receptionist on initial visit was very helpful and told me that she would try to arrange an appointment and that she would call back the next morning. This is exactly what happened and my appointment was for 10.00am, only 1.5 hours later. My appointment went well with a recommendation from the doctor to visit the practice physio before returning to work.

  2. Review titled Getting disappointed

    Rated 3 stars out of 5

    by Tony - Posted on 03 September 2024

    Visited surgery today to see if my respiratory results had been sent to surgery told they were not here would have to contact hospital which I was ok about then asked to get a repeat proscription for medication that had been given before was asked why I needed these which I felt had nothing to do with the receptionist as to why I needed them was told blimey there’s enough there to knock you out which I felt I was being judged asked her if I would be getting a call back about this to be told well request has been put through so you’ll just have to wait and see felt that she was unprofessional and seemed that I was a inconvenience to her So now will just have to wait and see what happens now I suppose

  5. Review titled Very pleased with the NHS health check

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 26 August 2024

    My experience relating to a health check was excellent . My observation whilst in the surgery was poor. Screens not working, elderly people coming to desk and not being able to get help with using system . Very sad to see people having to wait for next appointments to be released

    Dear Patient, Thank you for your feedback. We are aware that for our elderly patients utilising the self check in can be challenging. If patients are not able to use the self check in screens, our reception staff are always happy to book patients in at the reception desk on their behalf. The partners are currently monitoring the appointment system and investigating alternative processes to book appointments. Kind Regards Parkwood Surgery

  6. Review titled Kind practitioner

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 20 August 2024

    Me practitioner today was kind and smiley. She explained the reason for my visit, she took time to listen, she gave extra information that was relevant to my answers, and went beyond what was required to make me feel comfortable and welcome. What a star!

  10. Review titled Impossible to talk to someone over the phone

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Marina Forte - Posted on 12 August 2024

    It's plainly impossible to talk to someone over the phone. No matter if I'm caller number 1 or 10th in the queue. The queue never, ever moves up. I've been trying for literal months to contact the surgery via phone for different issues or queries as I work in London and I'm unable to come in person unless I have an appointment scheduled. I've never stopped trying but I've also never been able to get through to someone over the phone. How is this possible?!?!

    Dear Marina, Thank you for taking the time to feedback your recent experience of using the telephone system. I am sorry to hear that this has not met the expectations which we strive to achieve. We have recently installed a new telephone system, which patients' will have a more positive experience using. There is an option with the new telephone system to request a call back and one of the reception team will respond to this request. Kind Regards Parkwood Surgery
