Review titled Big thanks
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Alan Batchelor - Posted on 07 October 2024
Thankyou to the team for getting me seen as an emergency. Had to call on the 2nd week and they got me in to see the triage paramedic (who was very thorough and professional) he put me on a 2nd course of antibiotics and puffer. All cleared up now, thank you.

I saw the paramedic and he was brilliant. Had me all sorted and even helped me with stuff on my notes that I wasn't expecting to be looked at. He really took good care of me

Review titled Patient care has sadly declined off a cliff edge
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 02 November 2024
This used to be an excellent practice. However, this has changed within the last year. Patients can no longer book appointments without being triaged. There is a distinct lack of follow up care, and trying to get to speak to anyone to assist is almost impossible. We couldn’t make an appointment, we couldn’t get a home visit for annual flu or covid vaccinations. We can’t get the GP to follow up from a cardiologist appointment. We struggle to get through on the phone. Try throwing an elderly patient who is hard of hearing and slightly confused into the mix and you end up with utter confusion. As a family member supporting someone elderly you need to have your wits about you and be an advocate for your elderly relative otherwise care falls by the wayside and even something like annual vaccinations do not get covered. We appreciate that times might be harder, but this used to be a good & caring practice, we’re not sure why standards have slipped. Perhaps it’s a change of management, but it now feels like a real challenge to get the care that is needed. There are pockets of greatness still with the nurses and GP’s (when you’re lucky to get through the obstacles to see one). There are two carers supporting our elderly relative and we both feel this way as does our elderly relative who just rolls her eyes and says ‘they don’t care anymore’. Such a shame.

Dear Patient Thank you for your thoughtful feedback. We understand your concerns and appreciate you sharing them with us. To help ensure safe and effective care under the current high demand, we, like many GP practices nationally, are using a triage system to allocate limited resources appropriately. We're also pleased to let you know that our new phone system has reduced waiting times and now includes a callback function, so patients don’t have to wait on hold during busy periods. We know that supporting elderly patients can be challenging, and we are committed to providing quality care and support for both patients and their families. Kind regards Lisa Flaherty Practice Manager

Review titled Great care
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 10 October 2024
My 4 month old son was experiencing discomfort to his skin and scalp. The doctors listened to the symptoms he was experiencing, diagnosed and started the treatment. What impressed me the most was the aftercare and continuous reviews until I was comfortable with the results. I would definitely recommend the surgery.

Review titled Appointment with onside paramedic
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Isla Purdy - Posted on 11 October 2024
Today, on 11.10.2024, I had an appointment with the onsite paramedic. He was lovely and friendly. Really helpful and listened to what I had to say. I never felt rushed or like my comments were invalid. Left the appointment very satisfied.

I had my cervical smear and the nurse I had was so comforting and She reassured me a lot and made sure I was happy before we went ahead. This definitely made the experience feel a lot easier.

Review titled Professional staff
Rated 5 stars out of 5

I visited today for my cervical check up appointment. I saw Sue. She is a lovely friendly member of staff. Very professional and good at her job. It was very quick painless and she really makes you feel at ease as these appointments can be both highly stressful and painful. Sue is a big credit to Everest House. Thank you so much Sue.

Review titled Made to feel comfortable and listened to
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Len - Posted on 18 September 2024
I would like to thank the surgery’s paramedic who I saw on Friday 13th September regarding an ongoing uti. He was extremely pleasant to visit making me feel comfortable. He was very knowledgeable and listened to all my concerns, he ensured I understood his reasons for his recommendation for antibiotics, and the treatment if my condition didn’t improve. I would be more than happy to see him again. I would give him a 10 out of 10 if I had to give him a score.
