Review titled Rude and don’t listen
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 29 January 2024
I felt uncomfortable and upset as a parent and treated like a child myself after leaving Blackpool walking centre. They don’t listen to parents and the quicker they can get you out the room the better, no care for parents or the children. The doctor was rude and basically told me I was wasting their time with my daughter. They don’t make eye contact with you when talking to them. They have to remember these are our children and we love and care for them so they should be reassuring parents not fobbing us off. I understand they are busy and stretched to the max at the minute but no need for rudeness and sending a sick 4 year old away home with its mum being told am wasting their time

Im a type 1 dibetic and am having trouble with my foot, swelling and pain, i went to walkin centre and got told if it continues see doctor or hospital, months later it flared back up, the person who saw me was very abrupt, practically called me a lier, checked my foot out and told me to contact my doctor and arrange an exray thru them which will probably result in me ending up back at the hispital, no help at all, im trying to work full time and in agony but none of the ppl that are ment to help even care, if you didnt want to help ppl and make a difference why bothet training, total joke, still in agony and need to work tomorrow, 6 months this has been going on,,thanks nhs, makes me feel my taxes and ni are going to great use, thanks urgent care pff

Review titled Horrible Practice, Rude Doctor
Rated 1 star out of 5

Receptionists have always been very kind. Nurses have been great. However, Went to the urgent treatment center on a weekend as a pregnant woman very worried about pelvic pain that radiates from front to back. I did not get any empathy from the doctor. He was very much in a hurry. All he checked were my obs and he had me stand to look at my back with my winter jacket on - like how would this help? Even someone with the sharpest clinical eye could not assess a patient this way. It's as if he is trying to make it look like he is giving a solution but really isn't. I wasn't born this morning and I am a nurse so I am not naive in how proper assessment is done. I wasn't getting the answers that I needed so I tried to ask him a question but he brushed me off saying that he doesn't have time to answer questions and he said he is very much in a hurry. Like really? Is this how you would address a pregnant woman with pelvic pain who has a question about it? He was very rude. Nothing was done about my problem, no referrals, no proper assessment, I swear if anything happens in my pregnancy, this appointment will be reported. Generally, NHS workers are good and skillful. But people/doctors like him are the disgrace of the NHS. I wish no patient in dire need of care would unluckily fall under his care. I felt like I totally wasted my time this morning, having gone there so early only to be treated like this. His care today does not deserve the taxes I've been paying for.

Review titled Over a 4 hour wait
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 08 November 2023
Reception staff, I have never spoken to the rudest pig ignorant self opinionated reception staff, all you get from these after a rediculas wait to see a doctor or nurse, I took a person there, in lots of pain, told me to go and buy some pain killers, or go to the hospital and wait there, not the answer I was looking for, I will be writing to the director of this site, it's the only way to get a sensible response!!!!, Because, if you read any of the reviews on here, you'll see that they never respond to any criticism.

Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Karen Fenton - Posted on 02 September 2023
Having used the walk-in centre to get my wound redressed on a daily basis for three weeks, I cannot praise the staff here enough. They work under so much pressure as it is always busy, but every nurse and the receptionists have been just amazing, courteous and so caring. So a huge Thankyou to each and everyone of you for making my daily visit so nice and taking the stress out of it.

Review titled Excellent help with medical problem
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Johnedmund - Posted on 30 April 2023
Been here a few times lately. At all times the help and attention was excellent. Sometimes I had to wait but it is best to go prepared with a book or something. I even take a drink. Recently I had missed an appointment but they sorted it for me and 1/2 hour later was fitted in and had it done. Had stitches removed before Christmas from 2 painful operation cuts. This was above excellent. Couldn’t have hoped for a better practitioner all the times I have been in. Thankyou Blackpool Dropin Centre and all staff.

Review titled Excellent Care
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Daisy Harper - Posted on 04 January 2023
The wait was worth it. I was treated with respect and an attentive nurse. She listened to me, and I did not feel that i was being hurried or rushed out on a conveyor belt. I understand how busy the NHS is. They do an amazing job, and my journey felt very worthwhile. Also, whilst being treated, I was found to have another serious medical condition and without my visit to Urgent Treatment Centre it would have continued to go unnoticed with a possible fatal outcome. Thanks to you all - I sincerely hope and pray you get the pay and conditions you so well deserve soon.
