Review titled Great caring service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Cath Daire - Posted on 21 November 2024
I am so lucky to have Dr C as my doctor. He listens to me and thanks to him I am still alive. He referred me for scans and testing which revealed kidney cancer and later on lung cancer. I cannot thank him enough for his excellent care and treatment. The receptionists at Longsands surgery are both pleasant and very helpful. They too have shown me dedicated care, and they go above and beyond to help. I’d like to thank them too. I am so very fortunate to be here and it is all thanks to the fabulous service that I have had over the last five years in particular at all the doctors and staff at the Healthcare practice. Thank you to you all.

I am compelled to draft this review after having been seen by a lovely lady doctor today. Her professional approach coupled with empathy and understanding are to be commended. She has the ability to put herself in her patients shoes and use her skills to help. This is her vocation and it is very apparent. I have been treated exceptionally well by all the doctors and the team and they all deserve commendation . I am very grateful for their service. Kindest regards. Yvonne kirton

Review titled Excellent practice
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Zenab - Posted on 20 September 2024
Staff at the reception desk were warm, professional, and attentive. The reception process was smooth, and I appreciated how efficiently they handled appointments. The doctor took the time to listen to my concerns regarding my daughter and provided thorough, compassionate care with an appointment over the phone. He explained everything clearly, making me feel comfortable and informed. My daughter was given a face to face appointment. The practitioner was absolutely fantastic, kind, patient, and incredibly attentive to my daughter's needs. She made her feel comfortable and at ease throughout the appointment, taking the time to explain things in a way she could understand. I really appreciated the compassionate and thoughtful care. I highly recommend this surgery for families and anyone looking for quality care!

I really appreciate the early opening and late evening surgery times as I work full time. I always try and get an 8 am appointment so that I can get to work in time.

Review titled Speedy service
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Sarah - Posted on 06 August 2024
Unfortunately, I suffer from a lifelong condition which impacts my ability to work. Requesting a fit note through the practice has never been easier! It can now be requested online, it is reviewed by the doctor and then the lovely receptionist team will arrange for it to be sent to you via text. Getting out of my house isn’t always easy, so being able to make requests with the doctors online is a massive help to me. I no longer need to go to surgery unnecessarily. They’re so speedy at actioning these requests and very accommodating with your needs.

by Susan - Posted on 24 July 2024
During the IT breakdown situation recently i had an appointment and it was still dealt with swiftly. I had a last minute prescription request where i needed the medication that day or day after latest. they went out of their way to have dr sign it off and even rang me to say its ready for collection and saying enjoy the rest of your day. Well you couldnt ask for better than that. Thank you to all staff.

Dear Susan - Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review regarding your appointment at the practice on the day of the IT outage when we had no access to your medical records or any of our computer systems. I have to say it was a challenging day for the team and highlighted just how much we rely on IT in general practice. I have shared your review with the whole team as reviews like this mean a great deal to us. I was happy to hear that your appointment was dealt with swiftly and your prescription request actioned, the team pulled together that day and I am immensely proud of how we all reacted and got through the day. It was also very nice to hear that you were called to say your prescription was ready and they wished you a pleasant day, again it reiterates how positive and pleasant the team remained under extreme pressure. Thank you once again for your kind words. Kind Regards – Jane Goulding – Practice Director

Review titled Excellent consultation
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Steph H - Posted on 22 July 2024
Today I attended the practice for a review, I was seen by Physician Associate and could not be happier with the consultation. I was given the opportunity to discuss my concerns and problems, I was listened to and heard. I then had a thorough appropriate examination and offered a chaperone, my case was discussed with a colleague and a plan was agreed going forward, my expectations were met and I left feeling reassured. I could not have asked for more during this consultation and I’m very pleased with the service. I’m grateful to the Physician Associate for taking my concerns seriously. Thank you!
