Review titled Such kindness
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Pat Almond - Posted on 17 March 2024
For a slightly nervous lady,the patience and kindness was wonderful. The eye screening dept is very efficient and thorough -and this wasn’t a “one off” as I’ve been many times,and each time has been the same. Thank you to each one of you!

Review titled A Great Ambassador in communication and caring
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Jennifer McFarlane - Posted on 19 December 2023
My experience has been with a nurse practitioner who during my visits has created a relaxed atmosphere resulting in easy communication. She is a good listener who uses her wide knowledge and experience to generate confidence. The result provides a better patient experience and I leave feeling physically and mentally at ease. I do hope the practice will retain her services.

Review titled Loss of confidence in this practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 07 November 2023
Last few visits have been for recurring ear infection, with 2 of these visits walking in to seeing “ear infection” googled on the screen. Last week went back as needed medication to help and was clear to them that I’m pregnant and to prescribe something safe. Was prescribed something unsafe for pregnancy despite asking several times and pharmacist did not dispense prescription due to this. Check what is being prescribed as I would have taken this if I hadn’t double checked with pharmacist if it was suitable.

Review titled Poor practice communication
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 26 May 2023
Realised I had one pill left of my regular medication, put a request in via the online order request form, then phoned the practice to ask them if if they could possibly review the request and issue. Met with a very rude receptionist who talked to me as if I was 10 years old, didn't listen and talked over me. Posted anonymously because I don't want to be targeted. I've encountered rudeness at the practice many times but also have to say there are nice, empathetic and competent receptionists as well. Luck of the draw!

Dear Patient I am very sorry to learn of your recent experience and how disappointing the outcome was. I acknowledge your wish to remain anonymous to avoid being targeted. Nevertheless this is a matter I would like to investigate. Please do get in contact with me directly at the Practice if you wish. Moreover, I am also keen to ensure you did manage to obtain prescription for your repeat medication. If the matter is still outstanding then I implore you to contact the Practice again.
