  1. Review titled Avoid

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 15 April 2025

    Practice has seriously gone down hill. Was a brilliant surgery when it was Tawstock but since changing to Aerial Healthcare it is impossible to get an appointment. Cant get through on the phone especially if you work as won't be able to stay in the queue for so long. Always being told to fill out an online form even for elderly patients who don't have internet. If you want to see the same doctor twice forget it as you won't get an appointment. Medication reviews are non existent now. What was once a great surgery is sadly no longer and I would advise anyone to avoid them.

  2. Review titled Disappointed

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    You promised the new online form would make things better. It says it is open until 5pm. Does it ever! I tried every day at 2pm (that’s my lunch break) from 17/2 till 3/3 but the form was closed for the day every time. I phone but was told to complete it tomorrow. Nothing we can do it’s closed. In the end I had to get my neighbour to complete the form pretending he was me, but I didn’t actually want him to know my medical information. I had no choice. I am not aloud to use my phone at work, I rang reception and they said I am trying too too late it normally closes at 10 or 11. I’m not alone everybody I talk to has the same thing happen but other local surgeries are better. Go elsewhere you won’t have regrets

  3. Review titled Super efficient and professional!

    Rated 4 stars out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 25 October 2024

    I’ve had a very positive experience at Ariel recently. I’ve felt valued, listened to and my concerns were dealt with quickly and efficiently. I cannot fault this practise esp during this uncertain time. I made an online enquiry and had a response with an appointment the same day. The waiting time at the surgery was a bit longer than normal but nothing outrages. Keep the good work going!

    I used the new online service, we had a phone call and a face to face appointment the same day. All the staff were very helpful.

  5. Review titled worst medical center in the country

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    Turned up early, watched six people arrive after me and get seen before me. Fifteen minutes after my appointment time, nobody telling what going on I went home. Worst medical center in the country.

    Had an invite for a flu jab. Small challenge booking online, but really pleased with the service at walk in. Staff were lovely and accommodating. Efficient process overall and positive experience.

  9. Review titled It's broken

    by Anonymous - Posted on 30 September 2024

    Tried to use the NHS app to book an online consultation, filled out all the information required, in depth, received a text 3 hours later saying their system has changed, click the link to use the new system. Would you believe it with the new system they closed online enquiries until 3pm at the earliest. I just want some antibiotics for crying out loud. I've already entered the queue why am I having to wait to re-enter?

  10. Review titled Great practice, helpful staff.

    Rated 5 stars out of 5

    Came into survey and was greeted nicely from a reception team before seeing a doctor. Doctor was very helpful and able to quickly identify a few things to try and these have worked well! Never had a problem contacting survey and an easy process from start to finish. Help all along the way. Thank you Ariel health care team!!
