Review titled Shameless place
Rated 1 star out of 5

I have found my experience very upsetting by speaking to unsupportive and rude staff. Scruffy practice even though this was being looked at by the management.. practice was Unsupportive to my elderly and vulnerable parents.

Review titled Very Supportive
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by P Hartley - Posted on 30 October 2023
I had reason to have to attend the Intergrated Centre on a Sunday recently, and needed follow up help from Royton Medical Centre on 2 occasions. All the staff have listened to my concerns and supported me both times. I am very grateful, and thank you all.

Review titled Impossible to contact
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 17 July 2023
I received a letter dated 3rd July to book an appointment following a referral from the doctor. It is impossible to actually book anything and the website tells you to contact your GP if you want to do it online. However, if you go into the surgery, you are asked to phone them then they never answer the phones

Dear Patient, Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry to hear that you have had difficulty contacting the practice. I have spoken to the team and reviewed our data from the telephone system in response to your feedback. Looking at our data I can see that the average waiting time on the telephones does seem relatively low on average. This of course does not take into account the sharp increase in call volume that we see between 8am and 9am each day. This busy period is caused by people attempting to make urgent appointments when the surgery first opens. If you did want to pre book an appointment, we would suggest that you try and call after this period. When completing the eConsult form, there is an option for you to put a note into the form detailing that you have been asked to make an appointment by the GP. Our team will then cross reference this note against your record and make an appointment for you. This means that you will not have to answer all the questions regarding your condition again. If you need further support with this, please call the practice and a member of our team can talk you through this. As mentioned, your feedback has already been discussed with the team and we will continue to monitor our telephone system closely. If you require further assistance, please email the practice via gmicb-old.roytonmedicalcentre@nhs.net. Kind regards, Royton Medical Centre

Review titled Royton jungle

I visited the practice for my review and I was shocked what I saw. Jungle! Overgrown grass, bushes, rubbish and rude receptionist’ ‘welcoming’ you.

Dear Patient, Thank you for your feedback. I am the Operations Manager for the practice. I am sorry to hear that you were unhappy with the appearance of the area outside the practice on your last visit. As mentioned in response to an earlier review, we were currently in the process of hiring someone to take care of the the grass outside. I can confirm that this has now been done and the outside area should be tended to soon. I would be keen to hear more about your experience with our receptionist. If you could please contact me with more details via gmicb-old.roytonmedicalcentre@nhs.net, I would be happy to investigate this matter further for you. The practice takes all feedback seriously and I would welcome the opportunity to resolve these issues for you. Kind regards, Royton Medical Centre
