    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Mug - Posted on 04 September 2024

    An appointment was made and carried out in good time without much of a wait.Managed to have a conversation with doctor, detailing my health being results which had been obtained and how I should take my medication.Will have another discussion on the outcome again in time.

    I have made a telephone appointment on line then been asked to come into the surgery and both experiences were great. The doctor listened and communicated extremely well and his diagnosis has helped me a lot

    Rated 3 stars out of 5

    by Angela - Posted on 13 July 2024

    Was expecting telephone consultation, contacted surgery 3 times and was told I was still on the list for a consultation. On checking app it stated I had missed my consultation and message was left, message was on land line, this wasat 14.30 ,which I never use for consultation, it's always my mobile, as I was not in my home I would never receive consultation .Why was I still told even at 1700 hours I was still on the list for a consultation?

  6. Review titled By phone only

    Rated 3 stars out of 5

    by Sheila Fogg - Posted on 14 July 2024

    Missed 2 calls on the mobile phone and one on the house phone that didn't register and no record of it. As for the mobile phone had the phone by my side I can only think that the signal had gone down as it does on many occasions. Resulting in appt missed. I did ring the reception and I asked if the doctor could be sent a message to ring me again while the phone was in my hand unfortunately I didn't get another call. It would be better to have the appt at the surgery to avoid this happening again. My symptoms need to be looked at in person anyway. I have booked another telephone appt but would appreciate a call back to ask me to visit the surgery.

  7. Review titled Amazing surgery

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Lyndsey Hughes - Posted on 06 July 2024

    From the receptionists answering my initial call and directing me with who I need to see or speak to to the doctors appointments face to face or telephone I honestly cannot fault this practice. I am treated as a person and not a number and most importantly I feel heard and listened to. The doctors, nurses and other staff do an amazing job

  8. Review titled Tel appointment

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 30 June 2024

    Took 8 failed attempts to get through, told (by text) to expect a call between 10:30 and 12:30 (which puts you on edge not to miss it). I actually got a call at 6:30pm. Also, Dr was not familiar with my treatment (which was approved by another Dr, Diabetes UK (the main charity for Diabetes) and the Government - weight loss injections) he's put me on half the dose I am meant to be on, told me he might have to discontinue my treatment and is now having to go for advice from a Pharmacist. It's left me off worse than when I started and caused a lot of unnecessary worry and upset.

    Doctor and nurse are professional, kind and caring. They gave detailed health advice and arrange the next appointment/blood test for me at the same time. The reception is nice and helpful to explain what should I do next. I am appreciate to their great services.
