Review titled Excellent, accessible and supportive surgery.
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by L S - Posted on 14 December 2023
I have been with Aylmer Lodge since I moved to England as a child. They have been excellent on every front. In recent months, I have faced into some extremely worrying health concerns, but this has been made better due to the unwavering support I have received during this time. The doctors are accessible, responsive, knowledgeable and supportive. I feel listened to, and that in itself is invaluable when facing serious health concerns. GPs often get a hard time, with being at the coalface of the NHS but I know how hard working they are and how they support their patients when it really matters. I cannot recommend this practice highly enough.

Review titled Great practice but disappointed with online booking
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 03 November 2023
Went to book on NHS app only to find that you can no longer book a telephone consultation with a doctor of my choice.And there is only one doctor or nurse if you want to book a face to face appointment.Very disappointed as I find booking stressful.Not good for patients with mental health problems.

Dear Sir/Madam Thank you for your review. We are continually looking at ways to improve our appointent system and value your input. We have recently made changes and contunue to tweak the system when necessary and where possible. It is sometimes difficult to get an appointment with your GP of choice due to days off and holidays but if you ask the reception team when the GP of your choice is working, you may find it easier to book with them when you go on-line. You can of course always be seen if your need is urgent on the day. We regularly discuss the appointent system at our weekly meeting and your suggestions will be discussed. Thank you for raising this with the Practice. You can always raise a complaint or suggestion directly with us. yours sincerely The Practice Manager

Review titled abysmal service
Rated 2 stars out of 5

I had the misfortune to have an appointment on 8/9/23 at 10am. At 10.15 a lady came and told me there was an "emergency" and I would have to wait to see the sister when I asked how long I was told "dont know".I asked if it could half an hour="dont know"-could it be 2hours="dont know".No help at all no offer to try to fit me in with someone else or rebook-just an air of total indifference no interest at all in patient care just get on with yourself-shocking. I really think it is not too much to expect better.

Dear Sir We are aware of what happened on the morning of the 8th September and we are sorry that some of our patients had to wait longer than usual to see our Advanced Nurse Practitioner. Our ANP had a very poorly patient with her who had to be conveyed to hospital. THis patient had to remain in her room with the ANP until the ambulance had arrived. Our Reception Manager kept patents updated on a number of ocassions and informed patients waiting that the wait was likely to be 30 minutes. The wait was in fact 30 minutes as she had suggested. We object to reviews like this being left, It is simply not a reflection of the service that we provide to each and every one of our patients. It was an unforeseeen situation and due to the nature of the business that we are in, emergencies do happen. We pride ourselves in delivering excellent care and although we are not an emergency service, we do sometimes have to provide emergency care. We have had a full investigation into this situation and we are happy that what we did at the time of the emrgency was the correct and appropriate course of action. yours sincerely Aylmer Lodge Cookley Partnership
