Review titled Disgraceful
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Kylie - Posted on 23 April 2024
This go surgery is the worst. I’ve been trying to call for three days. All day. High in the que. Called back a little later. Cut off. Currently been number 1 in the que for 1 whole hour. The service is absolutely diabolical. Now they have switched to online it’s even worse. You practically need to do a quiz just to even be considered for an appointment. After today I’m changing doctors. Something needs to be done.

Review titled Unprofessional
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 22 March 2024
Iam not to sure what’s changed to the service over the last few months,but it is absolutely shocking,they never answer the phones,even when you call after 10.30am for non urgent queries your always number 3 in the que for over an hour and half. Nobody seems to communicate with one another,as one person says one and another something else,when you do get an appointment they call you and cancel or let you walk all the way down to the surgery and tell you sorry we don’t do that you will have to rebook. my partner who hasn’t been to the doctors in over 3 years,tried for the first time today to call with no luck only to be told sorry we don’t take calls for booking anymore it’s all had to be done online,this is false as they don’t have the right to take away phone bookings, when not everyone has the access for online and are within there rights to not want to download this to there phones,also when they have a practice meeting on a Wednesday they always fail to switch the phones back over on the Thursday morning this has happed on a numerous amount of accusations it was nearly 8.50 when they switched the phone lines back on again. Some serious action needs to be taken at this surgery,as they are clearly failing in patient care.

Review titled Disgraceful service
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Arlaisha - Posted on 21 March 2024
I have requested a sick note for the last 4 days can’t Called the practice twice each day to confirm that I would receive it. Each time I was told that I would receive it by close of business and I have not received a thing. I am pregnant and the stress of dealing with them and explaining the situation to my work is ridiculous… now today Thursday. Same request has been put through and when I try to call it says that the service it closed… no one has been any help I am in constant pain and under stress from dealing with them

Review titled Doctor's attitude and cancellations of Appointments
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 09 November 2022
To be honest I have experienced very bad experiences with this Surgery (one after another) 1. Very short notices cancellations from Surgery for Appointments on numerous occasions. 2. The attitude and understanding from Doctors at the Surgery need to improve drastically. 3. It takes ages for the Surgery to pick up calls. 4. Online access for records for the Surgery are lost on numerous occasions.
