Review titled Outstanding Practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Sabah Mir - Posted on 12 July 2024
I saw The doctor just yesterday 11/7/24 to express my unhappiness with the local hospital and he readily contacted them to find a solution. I have been under the care of a specific Dr at Valkyrie Surgery for the last four years. I have a long-term illness, and throughout every stage of my diagnosis and treatment, I have been treated with care, respect, and compassion. The surgery is always accessible, and the reception staff are consistently pleasant and helpful. While I have had the opportunity to see other doctors, Valkyrie Surgery is diligent and caring in ensuring that I am seen by the same Dr who has been with me throughout my entire illness. It is unfortunate that people rarely leave positive reviews or share their positive experiences. Complaints about the lack of appointments or the waiting times should be directed towards NHS England to address funding issues, as this is not a fault of the surgery. Every time I attend, which is often, I notice that the surgery is always full. There should be better guidance on who should attend the doctor’s surgery and who should not. Many people visit for minor issues that could be addressed by a pharmacist, which unnecessarily uses up doctors' time. We all know the NHS system is seriously broken, and doctor surgeries can only do their best. In my opinion, Valkyrie Surgery is doing exceptionally well. It is one of the few places where you can see a doctor, have an ECG, and get a blood test in one visit. People often fail to appreciate what they have in such a well-rounded and caring surgery. I appreciate that organisations need to be monitored to maintain high standards. However, demoralising practices against exemplary surgeries like Valkyrie Surgery can lead to the loss of exceptional doctors and support staff. Constant scrutiny and lack of appreciation can drive dedicated professionals away from the system, ultimately harming the quality of care that patients receive. It is crucial to balance minor/ resolvable issues with recognition of the hard work and commitment these healthcare providers demonstrate on a daily basis.

Review titled Great Service
Rated 5 stars out of 5

I had an appointment at 11 for a minor operation and to my surprise I was called in 10 minutes early. The Dr was very helpful and explained everything really well. The minor op was then done and I was out just before my appointment time was supposed to be!

All very good, nurse very efficient. It's just a shame there's such a long waiting list for blood pressure monitors.

Was a real delight to be a patient for minor ops at this surgery. Staff was very welcoming and understanding. Explained everything perfectly. If it was closer to my residence, I would for a million percent register here for my GP.

Review titled Met my needs
Rated 4 stars out of 5

I had a blood test today. The booking went smoothly, the appointment ran on time, the nurse was super lovely. I explained I didn’t like watching the process so I looked away and the nurse chatted to me all the way through about other things that I needed to distract me. Really good service, friendly and professional.
