Review titled Terrible practice
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 12 July 2024
Booked a face to face appointment 6 weeks ago got called couple of weeks ago to say doctor couldn’t make that appointment so made another appointment for 3 days after original appointment , so now I’ve waited 6 weeks and 3 days .On day of appointment I was messaged 2 hrs before to say it was cancelled but I could have a phone call instead , I wasn’t offered another face to face or an apology. Once again I’ve had to go to A&E to get my medical problem sorted ( this is not the first time I’ve had to do this , you wouldn’t see me when I had shingles or when I needed the anti viral drugs ) A& E are at breaking point because of bad practices like you.

Review titled 2hrs trying to get through before the phone cut me off!
Rated 1 star out of 5
by N/A - Posted on 04 June 2024
This surgery has taken such a dramatic downturn. I can’t get through to anybody not to mention I have been on hold hoping to get an appointment for today for 2hrs and the line just cut me off! I’m at wits end with this place and will be leaving after many years here.

Review titled Listened to me
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Joanne - Posted on 14 June 2024
I was dreading phoning GP to get an appointment… that tiresome wait on the phone. But I chose the ring back option, they phoned me later, I was given an appointment for the same day and have had regular follow up appointments ever since. All clinicians listened, explained and acted. Exactly what you want from a GP, when you are unwell.

Review titled Unable to get through to surgery
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 07 June 2024
Have spent an hour and a half this morning and forty minutes this afternoon on hold trying to speak to someone regarding an important referral that has not been made. I tried every option all saying a 30 minute wait but from my experience this morning this is clearly not the case. The phoneline message is now telling people to call 111 or go to A&E, as a healthcare professional who has worked in A&E I can now see why the Conquest is over run with patients that should be seen in primary care

Review titled Excellent receptionist
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Penny Phillips - Posted on 14 May 2024
The receptionist in Fairlight Road on 9/5/24 was superb. She was cheerful, and very efficient with dealing with all the early patients who were handing in urine specimens. One was complaining about a previous staff member but she remained calm and just got on with her job. Thank you

Review titled lack of care and concern
by Anonymous - Posted on 03 June 2024
My son was diagnosed with bi-polar disorder following several breakdowns, an appointment at the surgery and a follow up with specialist mental health services. Following psychiatric assessment he was prescribed anti-psychotic drugs. The hill surgery were asked by the specialist service to provide access to onging treatment, via a repeat prescription - however they have not done so. Both my son and I are extremely alarmed and the thought of medication (which is due for renewal) stopping abruptly, with no medical advice or support. I am trying to contact the surgery without success - I have waited over 90 minutes to speak to reception with no success. I can only assume that at this point we atre expected to give up on the medication prescribed by th mental health specialists...and await the consequences.

Review titled Impossible to contact
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 03 June 2024
Was prescribed strong medicine from mental health consultant who emphasised that it must be taken regularly, and requested that GP should organize repeat prescription. GP failed to do this, but it was impossible to get in contact with surgery despite waiting on phone all afternoon.

Review titled Excellent GP consultation
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 30 May 2024
It’s the first time a GP has really listened and spent considerable time explaining the treatment options and the reasons he feels they will result in positive outcomes. I didn’t feel rushed, he was engaging, professional and articulated everything at a level I understood, allowing me to make informed choices. I came away feeling valued and very positive.
