I went for a full blood count. I was in and out within 10 minutes. The practice always provides an efficient and friendly service. Never had any reason to complain.

Review titled Used to be great, but not as good now
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by John Howarth - Posted on 12 June 2025
Since it was taken over it appears chaotic, long waits for appointment, different doctors daily and the one who is there permanently nobody seems to like, however the staff who are there are brilliant, reception, pharmacy and nursing staff are great, seems to be the hierarchy that are the problem, thinking of going to another surgery, the doctor who I saw today was actually very good although she was 40 mins late arriving, she helped me and referred me on elsewhere

Review titled Excellent service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 12 June 2025
I turned up to my appointment. Didn't have to wait long. The doctor was polite and asked about my problem, listened and prescribed some medication. Unfortunately none of the local pharmacies stocked the medication so I called the doctors to see what could be done. The following day after speaking with a doctor at the surgery, a suitable alternative was prescribed and I went to collect at my local pharmacy. The service was excellent as far as I'm concerned.

Review titled No help
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Louise Dyson - Posted on 19 June 2025
My concerns are not being taken seriously, I have asked for help several times and tried to chase up a referral made last year, I feel that I am getting fobbed off. I visited to ask that a new referral is made to another hospital with a smaller waiting list, I asked for help with my right to choose option. The doctor I saw, made me feel like a moaning woman, no help or advice just you will have to wait until an appointment comes through. I asked for a new referral to another hospital, he was flippant and asked me where would I like to go, I asked where can I go? He said I don’t know! This was a terrible appointment about a delicate situation…… not like this surgery but the 2 doctors I have seen recently are uncaring and uninterested.

Review titled Over 60 check

This was a routine cardiovascular check but I was able to have a very helpful conversation with the nurse and receive good advice about some other niggling issues
