Review titled Absurdly patronising receptionist.
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Nicholas Chase - Posted on 09 October 2023
Normally I would never leave a review of a GP surgery, I understand it is complicated and underfunded and we are lucky to have the NHS we do. Richford Gate has been excellent and I generally find it to be an efficient surgery with excellent doctors. However, there is a receptionist there that is so rude it is almost amusing. Calling on the morning of 9th Oct 2023 at 08:15, after the usual tutting preamble and condescending tone while I explained my issue, I was told to 'send a nice and polite email' to the prescriptions address and they might be able to help me, when she reiterated the 'nice and polite' requirement I felt compelled to remind her say I was not a child with all due respect would prefer not to be patronised. I have been on the receiving end of her inquisitorial and suspicious line of questioning before and assume that the numerous reviews that mention a 'very rude receptionist' are all about the same person. It is such a shame. I am sure it is a stressful and often thankless job, but there is more than an inkling that this particular individual really enjoys the power she can wield over callers that may well be in distress.

Review titled Very professional
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Liz Cooper - Posted on 03 August 2023
As an 85 year old in a quandary as to whether I should go on holiday in 6 days time as I had an unexpected symptom, the Doctor was very knowledgeable about the symptom and explained the timescale of possible treatment. It therefore provided me with the relevant information with which to make my decision. Post Cript I am going on holiday!

I am extremely happy with my appointment today. The practice pharmacist was well informed and able to answer and reassure me with every question I asked. I have been a patient here for 40 years. Happy.
