They offer the option to speak to GP on the phone, which is great if no appointments available.

Thank you for taking the time to highlight your concern. We are aware that our building does not facilitate privacy at reception. Nevertheless we have tried to put up appropriate signs to indicate that you can ask to speak in a more private location if you need to. We have also highlighted a need for reception privacy in our building improvement plan. We will consider some temporary measures to help the situation.
We were pleased to note that you were able to make a positive comment regarding your medical care.
If you wish to play a more significant role in shaping practice development you might consider voicing any issues through our Patient Participation Group (PPG) the details are on our website.

Dear Anonymous
I am very sorry to learn about your distress as a result of trying to book an appointment. I am sure you are aware there is a widespread problem with the availability of GP appointments. We are constantly trying to respond and change our appointment system to try and help the demand. We are encouraging patients to register for electronic access through the EMIS system and reception could help you with this; you can then book online. In addition you might wish to book a nurse appointment first because often our nurse team can start to offer some preliminary support. Furthermore if you are willing to give the reception team a little more information they are empowered to direct patient demand appropriately. We always have a duty doctor available for queries each day and the team might direct you to receive a call back from that doctor.
If you wish to arrange an appointment to speak with Andrea Fray, one of our managers, she could examine the difficulties and offer more specific explanations or solutions.
We hope your next experience is a better one and thank you again for taking the time to comment.
Philippa Daniell.

sorted!

Thanks, was in a panic but you've calmed me down. The receptionists were kind and got my forms filled in then the doctor checked me over and I just need an xray now but am feeling happier, thanks. Also the nurse who did my blood was chatty and smiley so I didn't panic.

Rushed appontments and lack of empathy

February 4, 2016
My recurring condition which is affecting my quality of life has not been further investigated. I feel it has been dismissed and get the impression that they feel I'm wasting their time as the appointments often seem rushed and doctors robotic in their approach.

No appointments, keep you waiting for hours but will turn you away if you're 10 mins late even though they're behind schedule.

I am sorry to hear that you are disappointed with the surgery. We are trying to management the appointment system but are struggling to meet the demand, I am happy to discuss continued difficulties with you. In response to surgery waiting times that can be many reasons for this, patients often have more than one problem or arrive late - we have extended the surgery time to include catch up slots to reduce waiting times and are happy to discuss any ideas you might have around this area.
