Review titled Getting worse
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 10 October 2023
Got a text message to say a recent blood test which after 3 attempts over 3 days spoke got a call from a doctor who is not my allotted one who altered the dosage on 1 of my medications and to come in for my shingles and pneumonia jabs. I asked to speak to the doctor who had altered my medication and also to find out about the results of a recent blood test after a short text was sent by my doctor saying I needed a supplement as the test had shown a deficiency. I was informed that I could not speak to doctor who had increased my medication and if I wanted a face to face with my doctor I would have phone and if I wanted a telephone appointment it would in 2 weeks time. If there is a response to this review not I will be told to put complaint in writing. I thought this review constituted putting it in writing but know doubt I will have to dust of my ink well and quill. I do feel sorry for the front facing having to deal with a system which is totally broken. Patients frustration will only build and it will be these staff who bear the brunt.

Good Evening, As you have already surmised, we do unfortunately have to advise you to put your complaint in writing to the surgery. Responding to a complaint will often entail referring to details from a patient's medical records and we are not permitted to refer to such information in a public forum. However, please be assured that we will conduct an investigation into the concerns you have raised should you decide to raise your complaint with the surgery directly.

Review titled Waiting for 45 minutes for my appointment to be cancelled
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Max - Posted on 13 September 2023
Turned up for my appointment (on time), half an hour later I thought I'd check with one of the receptionists and it turned out the check-in machine hadn't worked properly and arrived me for my appointment. Another 15 minute wait which then led to my appointment (which I'd been waiting for for almost a month at this point) being cancelled and rebooked for another day. Almost an hour of my day wasted all because their silly machine didn't work!
