Excellent practice in all services.

May 4, 2019
I have nothing but praise for River Brook Surgery. Excellent Doctors, whom I have total trust in. Very well run practice. This is evident in the services it offers to patients. They have given thought to working patients by opening seven days a week and until late during the week. The Receptionists are helpful, kind, approachable and friendly. I have been a patient here for 38 years and every visit has been a positive experience. The Doctors I have complete trust in. I always feel reassured when I come away from an appointment. I know I can ask questions and never feel rushed during my appointment. At this Practice, its obvious that they work as a team and genuinely do care about their patients. Every experience with the Nurses and HCA has again been positive, in that they talk to the patient to reassure them . They always explain what is happening. I will stay living in Bham purely to stay under the care of this excellent practice.

Have always been able to get an appointment.

Although it's a bit tricky hitting redial for 10 minutes at 8.30 in the morning, I have always received a same day appointment. My experience is that all of the staff are professional, kind and caring.

Good mental health support from GP

November 8, 2018
I have been receiving support for depression from this General Practice for the last 15 years. Riverbrook Medical Centre have been really fantastic, both for the care of my late husband, and for my own mental health. My GP also helped by referring me to Gateway Family Services, who have been wonderful too.

Phoning for an appointment can be a problem as by the time you get through the appointment sometimes have gone
The Drs in the practice are good when you get to see them.

Many thanks for your feedback. Unfortunately telephone lines are very busy in a morning but we have tried to relieve this by now providing online booking facility via our my healthcare app. You can also ring after 4pm on Fridays to book for a Saturday or Sunday appointment. Hope this information is helpful.

Dear S.Watts,

Many thanks for your feedback. We do endeavor to respond to our many telephone calls as quick as possible, unfortunately shear volume of calls can make this very difficult. We monitor and upgrade when ever possible.
