Hollymoor Medical Centre

Appointments are awful but that's like everywhere else.

I was suffering with breathlessness. I went to see a GP at Hollymoor Medical Centre, she examined me thoroughly and seemed very concerned , saying that there was something wrong with my heart. She said I needed an emergency appointment, we left the surgery within an hour the Doctor rang me up and said an appointment has been to come back to the surgery and have my bloods taken and an ECG the same day. She also stated many times to call an ambulance if my situation worsens. The following week I received an appointment at the QE. Had a heart scan, the doctor there informed me that I would not be going back home, I was told the main valve in my heart was sticking and if I didn't have the operation I would have 2 months at the most to live, I had a Tavi Valve fitted. I am now very fit and grateful.

In the past I had thyroid cancer, I went to a GP at Hollymoor surgery, through her being so thorough , I went to different clinics to see other specialists in other fields, in a matter of time my problem was sorted, I was found not to have the cancer back, so thank you very much.

If you can even get an appointment they are never helpful and always brush you off either that or expect you to self diagnose and give you silly advice like just take an aspirin and walk it off exercise will fix it. It is now probably one of the worst surgeries in the area hence why they are trying to change their name etc my advice is find another surgery

Access to appointments have gotten better. I can make one over the phone. I get through straight away and was given an appointment for within the hour. Appointments are excellent. They sent me for tests and they did bloods within the week.

I have only been there once, it was easy to get an appointment. Got one for the next day, really good.

Since Covid, some of the Doctors at my old Doctors forgot they had a Surgery.

I went there with a rash on my leg and he said he had seen it on others and he gave me some cream for it.

I had a mole that looked cancerous and I got referred the same day. I was referred really quickly and treated. An excellent service.

They're okay as far as they go. I try not to go to them that often but they do give you an appointment or answer questions over the phone or over the internet if it's not too urgent. It works for me.
