Can't get appointments

August 17, 2022
Generally okay, it's ridiculous you can't get an appointment. Takes that long to get through at 8am. It's not bad when you're free but I'm at work. I can't get appointments when I'm at work because I'm working.

GP won’t listen to you at all

First you don’t get an appointment, second if you get one your GP won’t listen to you at all and blame lifestyle choices for everything.

Poor service from reception staff.

March 11, 2022
Reception staff persist in asking what reasons are for wanting to see GP. NHS governance require that access to this information is on a need to know basis. It’s got worse over the last few years

Rude Receptionist

August 27, 2021
There is a receptionist here who's name I don't know, she is incredibly rude. She snaps on the phone, is dismissive, obstructive and unhelpful. She puts me off ringing the surgery at all. The other concern I have about this practice is one of the nurses going into great detail about another patient (whilst she didn't actually tell me their name, she gave me several details about them which mean I could have worked it out. And I mean deeply personal information about STD's! I was shocked. She also didn't know how to use the computer properly and wasted my time as she was not able to log on) She also gave me incorrect advice about HPV. I really think she needs to be given more training!

Easy to get an appointment

Easy to get an appointment. GP only allowed 10 mins of conversation and can discuss only one symptom.

Thank you for your feedback on Health Watch. I am pleased to hear that you find it easy to get an appointment at the Practice. As you rightly say the GPs only have 10 minutes per patient. However if a patient wants to discuss multiple problems they can book a double appointment with the GP.
Your feedback is appreciated and it helps us to improve on the service we provide to our patients.
