Can't get appointment

July 28, 2022
They're a pain. Have to phone and can't get appointments. Kid's won't get seen, they won't see you unless you tell them its an emergency, can't book appointments in advance. Have to ring at 8am but can take up to an hour for them to answer the phone.

Not fit to service their patients

My wife as for the last three weeks trying to contact surgery, the phone system cuts you off, the staff are rude and of no help when the once she did get through a number of weeks ago, she needs a hospital referral from the surgery

Can you get an appointment?

November 16, 2021
Is it ever at all possible to get an appointment without calling the number 87 times to be put on hold being told you are now caller number 17 and eventually when you get through of course they have no appointments left however if it is a medical emergency please hang off and and dial 999 alternatively if you know you're going to be ill in 3-weeks time we will give you an appointment.

Dear Patient,
We are sorry to hear that you have experienced difficulties with getting an appointment. Demand for appointments at the moment is far greater than the capacity that we have. Our team of highly trained staff will always try to help when you call the surgery and will signpost you to the most appropriate service if a GP appointment is deemed not necessary.
Our phone lines are extremely busy at 08.00 hours every morning and we are doing are very best to manage these calls. All emergencies are dealt with the same day and patients are triaged accordingly. If your problem is non urgent then we always do our best to offer an alternative appointment at our hub practice. Appointments are available at evenings and weekends. We also encourage patients to register for online access as this gives helpful information and will enable you to use certain online services.
A member of our Management team would be more than happy to speak to you if you would like to discuss any matters.
We hope this helps.
Kind Regards,
Dr Lawrence & Partners

The doctors and nurses are fantastic

August 22, 2021
Some of the receptionists are lovely and happy to help, whilst some others are very abrupt. I get that they have to ask what the reason for calling is so they can prioritise but you're trying to phone at 8am when triage begins, lines are busy for upto 15-20 minutes and when you get through they have no appointments left and try to fob you off the phone quickly. The doctors and nurses are fantastic, that's why they are receiving a higher score than I'd like to give.
