Get an appointment quickly
January 9, 2024
No issues. They use a triage system and usually get you an appointment really quickly.
I like the online booking form.

We have been using this place for nearly 2 years. It's easy to get an appointment when I compare it to my previous GP. I prefer to fill out the online form. After I fill it in and if it's for my baby I will get an appointment for the same day. If it's for me then within 2 days. It is never too long. Waiting to go in is fine, usually 10-15 minutes. The staff and doctors are all nice. I have one problem and that is the locum doctor. They are rude and rushed my baby's appointment. The usual doctors are great. Parking is okay but sometimes it's hard to find a space.
The staff are good

My wife helped me to register here. It's my second visit to see a doctor. My wife helped me to book an appointment today. I got it pretty quickly. I have to wait about 10-15 minutes to be seen. All the staff are good. Its is my first appointment with a lady doctor. I had a telephone appointment for bloods. She didn't explain everything. I am not happy about that incident. I forgot what happened exactly. The parking is okay here.
I don't like the new online forms

I have been here since 2018. I prefer to call for appointments. I don't like this new online triage thing. It's a long process then I have to come to the doctors then I have to go for an appointment. If I am working then it's hard to get an appointment. There should be a way of telephoning and then they can give a slot more easily not time wasting by filling forms in then coming in and talking with a doctor. This is not a simple thing and it should be a straightforward thing. Waiting time is good as you rarely have to wait. They are fast and I am grateful that you can see the doctor.
Clean, kind staff, no long waits

I have been using this place for 1 year. It's good. I booked the appointment by phone. I call sometimes at 9:00 am and I get appointments. Me and baby are both registered here. Staff are good and kind. Everything is clean including the washroom. They call me in to be seen quickly, a maximum of 10-15 minutes.
Called in to be seen very quickly

I have been here a couple of times. I am an interpreter. The staff are nice. The parking is good. The waiting times to be called in are very quick.
The doctors aren't good or understanding.

I have been using this place for the last 7 years. It has been very difficult to get the appointments here. I prefer online appointments as you have more chances of getting in that way. Last time I waited about half an hour. Normally it's 20 minutes and they call me in. The receptionists are good. The doctors are not good. They are a waste of time. They don't understand my problem. Their diagnosis isn't the best and they rush me. They don't give me solutions.
Good practice when the locums aren't working

I've been using this place for more than 9 years. The doctors are really good. If the locum doctors are there they treat you badly. They are always unprepared and don't read patient notes. They don't understand the complications properly and they give different medication. Most of the time the permanent doctors are here but if they aren't and it's the locum doctors we try to avoid them. All the other staff and the practice manager are very good. They listen to our problems attentively.
