I was put at ease as soon as I entered the practice. I am a nervous patient but I needn’t have worried. Very friendly & professional. The doctors I spoke to had time to listen to me & made me feel comfortable.

Review titled another stressful visit
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Paul Felce - Posted on 22 August 2024
the practice lived up to it`s reputation today. having had the stress of trying to arrange a telephone consultation with a doctor about injecting blood thinners before a holiday who was fantastic and arranged a prescription for me to pick up from the pharmacy. the doctor was not from this practice. he told me to just pop into the practice to have a quick work with the nurse about how to inject correctly. literally a 30 second conversation between appointments would be fine. i could have waited which would be fine. this is obviously to difficult for the receptionist to arrange and after consulting her supervisor i was informed that i would need to make an appointment to do this but there wasn`t any before flying in a few weeks. i don`t require taking up an appointment. why is everything with this practice so really difficult and so stressful? as if they go out the way to be difficult and awkward. you cant phone up, see your GP. currently taking high blood pressure tablets which is not helped by having to come to this place every few weeks. i will go and speak to the pharmacist at Cohens next door who are way more helpful.

Dear Paul Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback about your recent experience. I am sorry you feel that the Practice has not met your expectations on this occasion. The GP you consulted with, should have either provided you with the information you required at the time of your consult, or asked you to make an appointment if further advice was needed. Unfortunately, all of our clinicians, including our nurses times is allocated with appointments all day, and so they do not have capacity to squeeze in additional patients. Any consultation with a patient needs to be delivered safely, and this includes enough time being allocated to ensure the nurse can provide the necessary information to the patient as well as giving the patient the opportunity to ask any questions and ensure they have understood what has been relayed to them. Our receptionists would not be able to to arrange your request, if their is no time on the day available. Our main priority is to ensure the safety of our staff and our patients. Kind regards Yarm Medical Practice

The Nurse Practitioner was incredibly kind & organised a blood test, ECG & prescription for medication to happen immediately which has definitely helped reduce my anxiety regarding my blood pressure.

Review titled Amazing
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 19 August 2024
When I called initially there were no appointments but the amazing receptionist could hear how unwell I was and kept me on the line while refreshing so she could get me an appointment. She was an absolute credit to the practice today! When I was seen by the practitioner he was calm and understanding and didn’t hesitate to get me the help I needed and send off some further tests to get to the root of the issue.

I recently visited the surgery after an illness I contracted in Thailand. I saw an advanced practitioner who was absolutely fantastic. I felt reassured by the tests he carried out and confident in his expertise. Very grateful.
