Review titled No nurse on appointment date.
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Mario - Posted on 06 November 2023
Attended for nurse appointment on 6th November, at 10.00am. At 10.30am, went to check at the reception, about the delay, only to be told that the nurse had not turned up. Made another appointment. Hope there will be nurse on shift.

Review titled surprising poor service
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by jennifer barrington - Posted on 01 November 2023
I was obliged to call at the surgery today and queued at reception for about 20 minutes. This was to chase a prescription that was ordered a week before. I was informed that it was decided that it was 'non urgent'. Who made such a decision and on what grounds? I had been chasing this prescription for three days. All the chemist could tell me was that it had gone through to the surgery and they awaited it being signed off. I am really disappointed in the dreadful level of service now evident. I am reasonably computer literate but the website is very difficult to navigate and I struggled to get to this page.

Dear Jennifer Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback. I am sorry to hear you are not happy with the service you have received. Prescriptions are issued at the doctors discretion and the Practice no longer prescribe medications which are available over the counter for minor ailments of self-limiting illness. Some repeat medications require regular monitoring, you could be asked to have a blood test or blood pressure monitoring. If you have been requested to have one of these tests and you fail to do so. The Practice have grounds to stop medication for the safety of the patient. I am not saying that this was the case for you, however if you are still having problems. Please contact the Practice directly. I am very sorry for the experience and inconvenience caused. Kind Regards Patient Experience Team Modality Partnership

Review titled Pretty disgusting
Rated 1 star out of 5

The most disgusting patient care, can never get an appointment and even when it’s urgent it’s taken 9 days for anyone to contact me. Do not go to this surgery.

Review titled Incompetent GP
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 10 August 2023
I stood in the line in the practise 1hr40mins past my appointment time waiting for a receptionist to speak to. When the doctor called my mobile to see where I was he then called my name out loud and had me in and out of the room within 5 mins. Explaining that I just needed to drink water and see how I am over the next 3 weeks. I went to urgent care and they told me I have a chest infection and an ear infection. Which the doctor clearly looked over. I was prescribed 2 different antibiotics, and the doctor in south lewisham said to drink water!!!! The doctor I saw in south lewisham did not even care to hear any of my problems but only listened to my chest and checked blood pressure. This is very unprofessional.

Review titled Terrible service
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Sandra Hunt - Posted on 14 August 2023
I had my phone in my hand to take a phone consultation. The phone rang on a silenced call I called them back and they said they couldn’t help and I would have to go back to my GP I asked if the person was in the building the receptionist said yes I asked could they call me back she said I have to go back to my GP so to summarise I didn’t miss the call they called me on silent I called straight back to be told by a rude and unhelpful receptionist to go back to the GP This leaves me continuing with a great deal of pain and not able to walk properly back to well I don’t know where

Review titled ineffective new appointment booking system
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 19 June 2023
trying to get an appointment is an uphill feet of endurance. First a long form to fill in online - day1. then day 2 a doctor requested I send a photo of the problem. day 3, a text confirms this indeed warrants an appointment and I am asked to wait until they decide the date and time for the appointment. I am still waiting. Did the modality group really do any market testing before this new system was adopted? at what point does this constitute a responsive service? The system wholly relies on you having computer skills, a mobile phone that is on all of the time and significance patience as you wait and wait for an appointment. If you cannot make the appointment, I presume you go through the whole sad experience again from scratch?? meanwhile, treatment for our health problems is being delayed, our conditions worsen and in some instances, are life threatening?? please modality think again and introduce an effective appointment booking system for everyone.

Review titled Online appointment
Rated 3 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 30 June 2023
The new online appointment system is astonishingly poor The queue times to call the service has waiting times of 1 hr plus I’ve had to submit the form several times up to 4 times and appointments are taking over 1 week and you don’t always get a notification I’m still waiting for one that was communicated verbally by phone on 27 June and when I’ve got through have been told there is a backlog by the booking system agent It simply is not working and what should have been an effective triage is now compromised patient care really really disappointing this is now what I am expected to experience every time I need to see a GP

Review titled Brilliant service, thank you
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Michael - Posted on 07 June 2023
I’ve needed to speak to someone three times in the last couple of months, and every time it’s been quick and easy, and the doctors have been great. Filling in an online form might not be for everyone, but I’ve found it much easier and more effective than phoning up for appointments. This latest time I had a call from a doctor less than an hour after submitting the form. The time before, when I needed to see a doctor in person, I had an appointment within two days. I’m a fan of the new system, and as always I’m grateful to the amazing NHS staff for their care and support. Thank you.

Review titled Thorough Practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Tim Neville - Posted on 02 July 2023
I had a condition I was concerned about and my experience was excellent. I was contacted very quickly by a doctor after filling out the form. The doctor was so thorough sent me for tests and provided me with results as soon as they were received. I have nothing but thanks for the service provided.
