Review titled Remarkable Practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Marion Firth - Posted on 15 May 2024
This practice reminds me of how a doctor’s surgery was run when I was a child. Staff here have time for each individual, from reception, the practice nurse to the doctors. Thank you for giving myself and my husband the chance to sing your praises.

Review titled Admiration and Gratitude.
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Pany - Posted on 28 October 2024
I visited the surgery to see my Gp complaining of a painful neck and arms, numbness and tingling in my hands. After his examination he sent me for an emergency mri. Within two days of having the mri another Gp from the practice called me to say that she was referring me to see a spinal consultant. Upon seeing the consultant at the end of July, I had my surgery scheduled for early September. It was rescheduled to October due to more tests being required to ensure my safety due to the complexity of the Cervical Spine surgery that was needed to stop my condition from getting worse and possibly loosing the use of my limbs. My Gp was thorough and clearly understood that there could have been something amiss. He expedited the referral for my mri. I was surprised to get the call only two days after my mri from another one of the doctors from the practice that I had never met. She clearly understood the urgency as the mri report indicated Myopathy. Which is a condition where the spinal cord is being compressed. In my case it was a five point inpingment. With signs of nerve damage already appearing. I feel so lucky to be a patient at a practice that clearly has Doctors that are dedicated to giving exception patient care. Excellent listening, understanding and expediency from the Doctors and staff at The Village Surgery. Thank you all for helping me maintain my health.

Review titled In a world where you can be anything…. Be Kind!
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Catherine - Posted on 14 February 2024
The receptionist’s phone manner was impeccable and so patient when answering questions. Followed by one of the kindest GP s I have been treated by. Firstly I was allowed the time to say how I felt and was listened too and not hurried in and then out! I was given very detailed advice followed by a smile - which meant a lot! Lastly I was asked if I had any further questions or did I need any other support. Definitely will be asking to be seen by the same GP next time I need to see one. Thanks

Review titled Amazing practice and staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Glynice - Posted on 06 February 2024
This was the first time I visited my new surgery. The lady on the phone was very polite and arranged an appointment quickly. She was kind. The GP I saw was the best I had seen in many years. With only 2 hours notice he was very familiar with my medical history, he was knowledgeable and prescribed medication, explaining why and he was so thorough I feel very safe with and confident in him. Someone I can trust to advise wisely on any medical problems I might have. With all the constraints on GPs and staff, it is so reassuring to find a practice treating patients with such dignity and respect

I am very impressed with the help of the reception staff. Very helpful and professional. They do go above and beyond to help the patients. The doctors are very knowledgeable and professional. Even when you slug down and don’t follow their instructions, they will find the kind way of getting you on the track. Thank you ☺️

This was first visit at this surgery as a new paitient, since Covid with my previous surgery I haven’t been able to see a doctor, they was a reason and you count not even get through no matter what time t you called.

Staff go above and beyond to help you with chasing referrals and test results. The surgery is easy to get hold of compared to many other local surgeries and the staff take the time to get to know you as a person..not just a number on the appointments list.

Review titled Friendly and efficient
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Megan - Posted on 13 November 2023
I have only just moved to the Practice so this was my first experience communicating with them. I needed a rapid prescription and despite not having any appointments available I was able to complete a form online and within a few hours the doctor had responded and sent the prescription to my local pharmacy. They followed this up with a well-being text (late in the evening) to ask whether I would like them to refer me for a flu vaccination and other relevant checks. Equally, the receptionist who I spoke to was charming and helpful. Thank you very much.
