Review titled Good practice
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 03 February 2025
I requested a reference letter from my insurance provider to be filled in by the GP and this was sent promptly and filled in. So overall a good experience in this regard.

Review titled Waste of time
Rated 1 star out of 5

Was told to urgently get a blood test, filled out form to request appointment specifically for a blood test, had to arrange a ride and take time off work, only to be told when I arrived that blood samples had already been delivered to the lab that day so I couldn't get a blood test and that I should come back tomorrow.

Review titled Disgraceful
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 06 March 2025
After more than 40 years of satisafactory treatment at the Wellesley Road Surgery I have been obliged to change to another practice. The Chiswick Medical Practice is useless. The staff there seem to regard patients in need of assistance as a nuisance. I am 83 years old, house-bound through arthritis and have had severe cellulitis and infected leg ulcers since last November. In spite of many appeals I had no response or any kind of help from Chiswick Medical Practice. Sara Parfitt (dob 29 September 1941)

Review titled Poor service since the merger
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 29 January 2025
I have been a patient at Grove Park for 27 years and up until the Practice merged I had been very pleased with the service. I have not been able to get an appointment at this Practice since the merger and have had to go to the Wellesley Road Practice. The doctors I have seen have been pleasant but there is even less continuity than before. I tried to cancel an appointment the GP had made, in case I needed a follow up, but I could not do this on the website. I went to the surgery and stood in a queue for about 10 minutes until I gave up and went outside, and unusually, managed to get through by phone to cancel. Apart from the above exception I have not managed to get through on the phone; for example I called at 11.30am today, on a Wednesday morning, and was 13th in the queue. This is not unusual it is the norm. I miss the service I once had.

Review titled Terrible idea to centralise
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 04 December 2024
I’ve been with Grove Park Surgery practice for years and it has been an amazing experience until recently. It all changed after they’ve decided to bring a few practices together. My appointment which I waited for for three weeks was last minute moved to a different clinic and instead of 15 minutes commute to see doctors that I know and trust, it would be More than an hour with unknown staff. I was in a telephone queue with more than 30 people before me trying to cancel as I don’t want to have a no show. I didn’t succeed as it’s impossible to get through and you can’t change or cancel online. another example is vaccination. After waiting for 20 mins with a very anxious child, I learnt that the vaccine hasn’t arrived the day before, and no one bothered to give me a call, so I wasted a couple of hours for nothing. Terrible.

Just moved this practice and in the first day asked for the entire medical history for my son and myself. 3rd days after and some forms filled in I have received the medical reports which I very much needed. Impressed and thank you very much.

Review titled Terrible practice
Rated 1 star out of 5

It is easier to get an appointment with the vet for my dog then to get an appointment with this GP to manage my own health. Need to take time off work to drop off consultant letters; then waiting to hear from them about precriptions changes and test results without success; then waiting to speak to a receptionist for an appointment; still having to fill out obscure online forms; then wait for a call back to make an appointment.

Dear Patient Im sorry you have had a bad experience of our practice. All consultant letters from NHS hospitals are set directly to us and there is no need to be brought in. If your letter is from a private consultant and you are requiring a private prescription to be transferred to an NHS prescription, the process is detailed here https://www.chiswickmedicalpractice.co.uk/medications-prescriptions/private-prescriptions/ Any test requests from consultants should be actioned by the consultant and only tests requested by one of our GPs are actioned in the practice. If you require your treatment to be conducted on the NHS, then please contact us via Klinik as with all new health problems or health problems that have got worse and your case with be reviewed by a GP and you will be contacted on the day for a review or to book an appointment. If you have already completed a Klinik form someone will be in touch. I hope this has answered your query however if you need any further help please get in touch with the practice Kind regards Amanda Meehan Business Manager

Review titled Terrible depleting service since 2016
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Manpreet KAUR - Posted on 12 November 2024
Awful service Impossible to see a Dr Klinic system complex and not working Receptionists abrasive and rude Expected to wait at no 25 in a queue on any given day that one calls Mid management by admin staff Given an appoint last week with occupational Therapist that should never have been booked What are we paying our taxes for? Gross mis-management and waste it seems based on my experience! Dreadful treatment of patients

Dear Patient Thank you for your review and I am very sorry you have had a bad experience. As you know I have personally responded to your request via e mail to get a PDF of your medical records today as you would prefer not to use the NHS app and I have explained that our timescales for actioning your request is 30 days although we will do our very best to get it to you sooner. This is so that our service is equitable and fair to everyone and we can ensure our services are safe for patients and we follow due process. The Klinik service is for new health problems and health problems that have got worse and access to medical records is managed by a different team. With regard to our phone lines we apologise for the wait but there is a call back service in place where we will call you back when it is less busy. This does mean that often numbers in the queue are higher. With regard to the appointment that shouldnt have been booked, please contact me and let me know further detail and I will be happy to investigate. Apologies again you had a bad experience of our practice and hope in future you have a better experience. Kind regards Amanda Meehan

Review titled Disappointing
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by AIDAN MCCABE - Posted on 11 November 2024
Pre merger I was registered with Grove Park Surgery and the service was really good. Then we had the merger and everything changed and despite being told the merger would create more resources it's the complete opposite. Dreaded forms to fill in which takes forever to complete and if you don't fill one in you can't have an appointment I've tried calling the surgery today 5.45pm as I received a text cancelling a booked appointment. I'm number 30 in the queue. The service hasn't got better it's a complete joke

Review titled Good improvements

The new call back facility works really well, super efficient and means one no longer has to wait on hold. Additionally, yesterday I submitted a Klinik request and was contacted the very same day. Excellent.
