Review titled Couldn't get help
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Mrs EJ Harwood - Posted on 20 September 2023
11m cut his finger on Sunday, Tuesday morning it was red and inflamed, oozing puss. I rang the gp (approx 8:50am) who said there were no appointments left and to go to a+e. I had to leave a+e without being seen for school pick up. I rang the gp Wednesday morning, who gave me a telpehone appointment. I emailed pictures of finger. No such call (no missed call, no automoated text from my phone, no answerphone message and no text from the surgery). On Thursday I got a text to say medicine was ready at the pharmacy. I went to collect (expectying antibiotics). This was medicine requested 10days previous). Still no support. I rang the surgery again Friday- who claimed they had rung. No apppintment offered before the weekend. Child now with red arm and feverish. I got medicine by other means! This is shocking and I am tired of sounding the alarm for care for my children - especially ones so young.

Dear Mrs Harwood Thanks for letting us know about your recent experience of the Practice. I'm sorry to learn you only rate us 2-stars out of a possible 5. We would always try to see patients under 5 the same day. Unfortunately, like any appointment system, we can experience surges in demand and become full. When this happens, we can trust supporting services to see patients who have urgent needs - eg NHS 111 or the local walk-in centre. We would always try to see patients here at the Surgery where this suits patient's needs and timeframes. Once again, I'm sorry to hear you were disatisfied and I hope that you will leave a review to let us know how we're doing next time. Kind regards DS

Review titled Prescription Error
Rated 4 stars out of 5
by Mike Oldridge - Posted on 12 September 2023
I recently made a request by email for three medications. Only the first two were delivered and following a phone call it seems that the third item was not requested internally due to an administrative error. I am awaiting this last item to be prescribed and delivered in due course.

Review titled Not very good
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Samantha Marsh - Posted on 19 September 2023
Being told I could not see a doctor when I was breathless by a rude receptionist, I'm not one to goto the docs all the time but when I really needed to see one nobody cared. Got told I could have a phone call appointment 4 days later, not very good at all

Dear Samantha I'm sorry to hear about your poor experience with a rude receptionist. This is absolutely not acceptable and not what I would expect for our patients. Occasionally there can be a short wait for an appointment, and we should always try our best to offer alternatives and options for patient who need immediate attention. We can often signpost patients who need immediate attention to NHS 111 (typically for out of hours care) or the local Walk-in centre for a sit and wait appointment. Kind regards DS

Dear Joanne Thanks for taking the time to leave a review and brilliant 4-star rating for our phlebotomy (blood test) clinic. We are proud to offer this service to our patients and we also open it up to patients from other practices so they can have blood tests quickly (usually within 2-3 days). Kind regards DS

Getting an appointment is not an easy task as I had to wait two weeks before I could get an appointment some receptionists are not very helpful and all information about the patient isn’t passed on quick enough

Dear Joanne I'm sorry to hear that you've found it difficult accessing an appointment. I hope you will try the online consultation system "Patchs" via our website and let us know how you find that. It's a shame to hear your experience that information isn't passed on quick enough through the Practice team. We will reflect on your comments and learn from this. Kind regards DS
