Review titled Extremely helpful dispensary
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Marisa Franklin - Posted on 02 May 2025
I visited the dispensary today to pick up my son’s repeat medicine. When I got there I realised on receipt of the medication that I had requested the wrong one. I went back and spoke to the two lovely women working in the dispensary this morning. They were extremely helpful and rushed through the correct medication so I could take it away with me. This was great as my son wouldn’t have had enough medicine to get through the bank holiday without it. A big thank you to both ladies for saving my day.

Review titled Giving us time
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Mr Birch - Posted on 25 April 2025
I have Parkinson's With slurred speech the reception, health care professional, and doctor all allowed me time to speak and didn't speak over me. (A rare event) I single out the medication review with so many tablets ,took a long time. I was tired but she took time making sure I understood speaking to me not at me,well done!

Very accommodating to my needs. Recent visit due to traffic resulted in me being 10mins late. Reception alerted the GP to my lateness & made time to see me.

Dear Mr Bartholomew, Thank you for your kind review. With the numerous traffic issues in Braintree at the moment we do try our best to accommodate patients that are late as we appreciate this is often beyond their control. I am glad that we were able to assist you with this and appreciate your lovely review. many thanks Caroline Jones Practice Manager

Review titled Speedy results.
Rated 5 stars out of 5

After having 2 inconclusive chest x-rays, I was sent for a CT scan at Broomfield Hospital, this was on the morning of Friday 14th March. On the morning of Monday 17th, I got a text from Blandford House Medical Centre telling me that my scan was clear & that I was OK. This came as such a relief & so quickly. I was so thankful that they contacted me so quickly & put my mind at rest. It was Blandford House Medical Centre that instigated the x-rays in the first place, it's good to know they are looking after me.

Review titled Medication Review
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Mrs Forster - Posted on 04 March 2025
I had my annual medication review with the surgery Pharmacist this lunchtime. I found her to be extremely pleasant and very professional. I found I was able to talk through things with her easily and she came up with sensible and pro active advice. I was impressed that she had looked at the blood results carefully and although my Chloresterol was within the normal range my score for potential heart issues indicated a change in my statin medication which she sorted immediately. She also messaged the GP regarding a change in ointment used for a skin condition based on a letter from dermatology which she had seen on my notes. This indicated that she’d had a good look at my records before making the call to discuss the review and had already made notes re potential changes. She has a keen mind and obvious interest in her job. I believe she could develop her role further by becoming involved in areas of interest as she is an asset to the surgery.
