    Doctor did not call when called early morning for telephone consultation. Receptionist said she would remind him. Still no call. Happened twice in 3 weeks. Shocking service

    Joined this surgery. 4 weeks ago. Made an initial appointment. That was cancelled because of sickness. Re booked. waited another 2 weeks and same as before cancelled within 18hrs of the appointment. I am a diabetic and need to know that I can rely on my doctor. Luckily my previous doctor has agreed to help. Will find another surgery.

  5. Review titled Awful service

    Rated 1 star out of 5

    by Anonymous - Posted on 05 January 2023

    You have to call in the morning and your call joins a queue. 9 times out of 10 the queue is full so you can't even stay on the line. I have called 40 times in one morning trying to get into the queue. If you get into the queue, it can take 30 minutes or so to get an answer. When you finally speak to someone they have closed triage because it is now after 11 am. If a doctor does call back they never want to see you in person. You tell them your symptoms, they arrange for bloods/samples to be tested. You then have to call back for results when a receptionist tells you that the tests were clear, no further action required. You say, 'but I still have these distressing symptoms ' and you're told to call again the following day to go the the whole charade again....awful service. What exactly are GPS being paid for right now? Making phone calls, and brief ones at that.
