Patient Experience Summary

Patient feedback reveals a mixed experience across appointment access, care quality, and reception interactions. A significant proportion of reviews highlight persistent challenges with booking availability, with patients reporting repeated failed attempts to secure appointments through phone lines and extended waiting times. Communication breakdowns are noted at reception and between clinical teams, and prescription issues have been reported. However, many patients describe positive experiences once appointments are secured, with reception staff frequently praised for courtesy and warmth, and clinical care consistently commended for responsiveness and compassion. Recent feedback suggests improvements in appointment availability and service consistency, with several patients noting enhanced booking experiences and more efficient telephone responsiveness. Staff turnover and inconsistency in reception quality remain concerns for some, though others report recent positive shifts in team performance and patient care delivery.

The practice demonstrates capability in clinical care, with patients appreciating attentive consultations, thorough examinations, and follow-up support. Digital check-in processes and vaccination services have been well-received. However, the booking system remains a critical barrier to access, with patients recommending modernisation through online scheduling. Communication between departments and proactive medication review processes require attention. Overall, the practice shows potential for excellence when patients can access care, but systemic improvements to appointment scheduling and internal communication would significantly enhance the patient experience.

Frustrating wait for medical help leaves patient suffering

I regret to say that my experience mirrors that of many others. I'm struggling with an unexplained medical issue that results in persistent abdominal discomfort, and I'm relying on medication just to manage day-to-day until I can consult a specialist. The prolonged wait of almost three weeks to secure an appointment is completely unreasonable and fundamentally unjust.

Frustrating phone wait but great once inside

The medical practice offers exceptional care once you actually secure an appointment, but the process of booking is incredibly frustrating. Spending hours daily on hold, repeatedly calling, only to be informed that no slots are available is utterly demoralizing. Obtaining recent appointments required numerous attempts. The front desk personnel are somewhat inconsistent in providing accurate advice, though generally they lean towards being helpful. After undergoing tests, patients cannot simply phone for results; instead, they must endure the entire arduous process of scheduling another appointment. With some modifications, the service could be truly outstanding.
