Review titled Another excellent experience
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 23 June 2025
I reported a serious health concern via the online form - on a Monday morning! Within about four hours, I had been seen by an excellent GP, who reassured me and actioned the next steps. Very impressive all around - thank you Speedwell! :)

Review titled Fantastic care and service at Speedwell
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 11 September 2024
I had a very supportive and helpful conversation on the phone to day with a mental health practitioner. My needs and requests were understood and next steps were acted on straight away. I am grateful for the high quality care and service that I get as a patient at The Speedwell Practice. Everyone from the reception team on the phone and in person, to the GPs, nurses and mental health practitioners are caring and professional and I fell like I am in safe hands which is very reassuring. I really like the online request system as I get a swift and helpful response. Any issues are dealt with in a careful and supportive way. A great GP Practice to be part of. Thank you to the whole team!

Review titled Appointment chaos
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 09 June 2024
Here one is treated as a number to be ordered about without consideration.included telling me I needed to come to the surgery to arrange something then told to go home and do it online! Being instructed to come and collect a form , no reason given. A range of appts which have been changed at random without telling me, etc.etc. It costs me up to £8 to park outside. I dont want to waste so much time or money

Review titled Miss prioritising urgency of health issues
Rated 2 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 10 May 2024
I have faced with the following issues: 1. The appointment scheduling process did not follow my indicated availability dates, which resulted in appointments being scheduled during working hours, and I needed to help me secure a suitable date. This resulted in three extra unnecessary calls to the practice. 2. The urgency and severity of my medical concerns were not appropriately assessed, as both my blood test results and my debilitating symptoms were treated with equal weight. The suggestion to visit a walk-in centre without proper assessment or consideration of my condition further exacerbates the dismissive approach to prioritising health issues. This resulted in extra pain and a delay in receiving treatment: the form was submitted at 6 a.m., and it took until 11 a.m. to realise that I would not accept any solution to my problem and could go to the walk-in centre. I was offered to have my issues solved on the day, which is seven days away, unconsidering pain, discomfort, and reduced mobility to work.

Review titled Above and beyond!
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 17 April 2024
This website does not allow me to name the incredible Doctor who really heard me, addressed and calmed my multiple concerns, and somehow found me an "expected 3-month referral" in a week! It takes an exceptional person to achieve all that in a few minutes, and I am incredibly grateful to him 😀

Review titled Messing people about
Rated 1 star out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 16 March 2024
It’s seems like the clinicians in this place likes to mess around patients. Only way to get an appointment is via the accrux system which closed half the day. Called at 8am basically told me they do not have a triage. Feels like they do not take your symptoms seriously leading you to call 111 and 111 doctor booking you in but only for the doctor to put a strike through your name and not contact you. They could not bother to even send message. Reception staff is a hit or miss you can get some helpful ones and some not. Honestly I do not know how the surgery thinks it’s acceptable for things to run like this. Absolutely appalled.

Review titled 24 years of excellent care 😀
Rated 5 stars out of 5
by Anonymous - Posted on 28 February 2024
We have been at Speedwell for nearly quarter of a century, and we feel extremely fortunate! Today, for example, I saw a wonderful Doctor within 6 hours of requesting an appointment. I was extremely distressed when I arrived, but she checked me thoroughly and really heard and addressed my concerns. She also arranged for the scan I was anxious to have. By the time I left, I felt calm, reassured, and extremely blessed to be a patient at this Practice!
