  1. Review titled Absolute disgrace

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 01 October 2024

    Appalling service, fainted in the town, taken by locals to the surgery. No one in waiting room, only seen by receptionist who spoke with a go, who wrongly advised to go to urgent care centre! Informed there that this go was incorrect! Wasted hrs then sent to AE durham. They either didn’t care and needed retraining or were incompetent! I missed hours of time when I could have been seen by competent doctors and not spend 13hrs in AE!,….couldn’t even be bothered to speak to me or the kind residents who thought they were doing the right thing taking me to this woeful surgery! Even their advice was incorrect! I feel sorry for anyone becoming unwell in barnard castle who tries to get help here. Utter disgrace.

    Pharmacy staff rude and not very helpful at all ,Staff need to be mindfull if patients have mobility issues who can't walk Forton ho get prescription from somewhere else.I get my prescription every month from the surgery due to me not being able to walk far ,And I'm being told to go to another chemist to get my medication cause they didn't have it in stocks,I simply can't do it,Pharmacy staff need proper training.
