  • "Receptionists always try to help out as well as GPs."
  • "Polite young man in reception dealt quickly with my request to find a long-forgotten NHS number, thank you."
  • "The operations manager, can’t recall her name unfortunately, was very helpful when I explained my concerns."

Service Efficiency

Pros:

  • "I have been with this surgery for 20 years it had gone down hill but I have to say that the last 4 times I have had to contact them over the last 3 months everything has been really slick."
  • "They got my kids & I on their system within 48 hours."
  • "I had to move to this doctors recently as I moved house & area and from the beginning of this year, I've had to have constant appointments/blood test/scans and I could not fault this doctors."
  • "The callback service (rather than holding) when you call them for an appointment seems to work really well."

  • "I always got an appointment when I needed it, they put me on lots of checks which my previous practice didn't."
  • "Got a call within an hour of booking the appointment."

Cons:

  • "Terribly overcrowded, long waiting times. I feel bad if your stuck there."
  • "Called for more than 4 times and no one answered."
  • "Phone system and booking was a joke, rung 7 times over a few days and kept being asked to call back after 25 mins on hold."
  • "needed hospital reports etc from my doctor so after waiting for them was told to get them as they were ready at reception, went to get them that day a few hrs later and staff could not find them."
  • "What is the point of a doctors surgery if you can't get an appointment or can't get through when I ring....joke."
  • "You have to call at bang on 8:30 and then have to either sit on hold for ages or await a call back, both usually take at least an hour."
  • "Never get any appointments in this surgery."

Communication

Pros:

  • "Same goes for the staff in the pharmacy, always so polite and helped me set up a PPC all in the same I was there."

Cons:

  • "Phoned surgery and spoke to paramedic who told me to get over the counter medication when l have a condition that the doctors are aware of."
  • "The surgery will also change your family doctor with even notifying you that they are going to do this before hand do you have a chance to say no."
  • "Utterly incompetent. Dr Sheik repeatedly ignored a specialists advice regarding how to treat a problem the resulted in a significant reduction in my sons quality of life."
  • "The attitude of the staff at all levels from receptionist to medical personnel is rude."
  • "Telephone manners can be improved, the statements from agent to agent in regards to your results differ hugely."
  • "The receptionists are often rude and it takes ages to have a phone call from the designed GP."
  • "Doctor get annoying once you are telling what’s is your health problem it’s like talking to the wall."
