  1. Review titled Friendly and Efficient Practice

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Barbara Colton-Whittaker - Posted on 03 June 2024

    I have attended the clinic in Blackpool on several occasions and I have always found them to be very friendly, informative and efficient every time. It is easy to make an appointment. The communication is very good and the waiting time is excellent. Never had to wait more than 10-15 minutes before being seen.

  3. Review titled Cataract

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by John Westacott - Posted on 26 June 2024

    Speed is the first thing that amazed me, I was expecting a long delay but 4 weeks after starting the process at the opticians I had an initial consultation and 6 days later had the cataract removed on my first eye. All the staff were friendly and efficient, transport home had been requested, I arrived at 11:10 for 11:15 appointment, was seen within 10 minutes, checks completed, surgery done, transport waiting and home just before 1. Amazing service, thank you.

  6. Review titled Bad practice

    Rated 2 stars out of 5

    by Rajesh Darji - Posted on 12 June 2024

    My father has been referred to CHEC for 4 monthly checks due to his Glaucoma. Today we were scheduled at the Stratford Clinic which appeared to be a rented office space on the third floor within a Chiropractic clinic. My father is 85 years, blind in one eye and when entering the examination room, it was dark and he couldn’t see where he was supposed to sit. When seated for his first eye test, the equipment was not set-up to move towards the patient like it normally is, but required my father to shuffle a heavy seat without wheels forward. The clinician then asked my father to do the click test on his blind eye. When I pointed out he has been blind for some time and it is on his records, we were told they didn’t even look at the records beforehand. After running two test, the click and eye scan we were told that was it. I then had to ask for the pressure test as this is one the first indicators how the Glaucoma is presenting itself. Overall, this was a terrible experience and i hate to think how he and others would have manage without a carers help. We will not be accepting any appointments at this clinic anymore. I would like to add however that the Coventry CHEC is a more professional facility.

  9. Review titled Poor service

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Stuart Holliday - Posted on 17 June 2024

    I received a letter and email regarding a pre-endoscopy appointment scheduled to take place by telephone at 09:30 on 14th June. As I could not make this appointment I rescheduled for 13:00 on the same day. Despite this someone tried calling at the original appointment time and I received a text stating I had missed the appointment. I contacted the company straight away, they stated I would need to reschedule. An appointment was made then and there for 17th June at 12 midday. I received a call that morning to state that I had been given a wrong slot, and re-arranged for 15:10 the same day. At 15:29 I received a call which hung up when I answered. I then attempted to contact the caller but went through to the 'wrong office' and was told that someone would call back. I then received a call at 15:39 however the caller stated the line was bad and then the call dropped. You can imagine the anxiety I am experiencing with an undiagnosed condition which I wish to resolve asap. This system appear flawed and the 'pre-assessment' could be done by my GP.

  10. Review titled Great service

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 13 June 2024

    Great service seen on time, very professional and made to feel at ease. the service I've received has been excellent. The only problem I have is booking the appointment on line, they send a message to book which I do with no problems and then you get another the following day to book again this is very confusing. It has happened on several occasions as I have been attending Chec for a couple of years now, I ring to report the confusion and you get a pre recorded answer machine telling you to ignore the second booking as there's a glitch in the system.
