Patient feedback reflects a mixed experience across the practice. Many patients praise the reception experience, noting courteous and accommodating staff who handle appointment scheduling efficiently and responsively. Care delivery receives consistent positive comment, with patients highlighting compassionate healthcare professionals who provide thorough explanations and attentive consultations. However, significant concerns emerge around appointment access and waiting experiences. Extended delays in securing appointments, with some patients reporting waits of several weeks or longer, feature prominently in negative feedback. Additionally, patients describe doctors running behind schedule, creating substantial disruption for those who arrive punctually. Communication about delays and appointment availability appears inconsistent, with some reporting booking system errors and lost records.
Management responsiveness presents another area of concern, with patients noting difficulty reaching the practice by phone and slow responses to escalated issues. While individual staff members frequently receive praise for their dedication and professionalism, systemic challenges around appointment availability, timeliness, and communication consistency appear to undermine the overall service experience for a notable proportion of patients. The feedback suggests that positive interactions at reception and during consultations are sometimes offset by frustration with access to care and organisational responsiveness.

Terrible healthcare experience with unhelpful doctor
Utterly incompetent medical professionals. What kind of physician prescribes antibiotics and evaluates respiratory issues without even conducting a proper chest examination? They clearly just want to rush patients out the door. I was promised a same-day follow-up, yet I ended up waiting 48 hours for their return call.

Amazing healthcare service with caring staff
I've been a patient at this surgery for some time, and I frequently want to emphasize how consistently impressed I am with their exceptional service. Today, I found myself in need of urgent medication that I had run out of due to my own oversight, and with just one phone call, the incredibly reliable staff resolved the issue immediately. On this occasion, the wonderful Sana deserves special recognition for her outstanding assistance. Kudos to the entire team who are clearly committed to meeting each patient's needs, treating everyone as a unique individual rather than just another statistic. Their dedication continues to amaze me. Thank you to the entire team. You never fail to impress and always provide top-notch care. Keep up the fantastic work!

Exceptional customer service from helpful medical staff
I reached out to the surgical department through my wife Amanda, who communicated with Andrea regarding the medical test requirements for Beardwood Hospital. We would like to express our sincere appreciation for Andrea's exceptional professionalism and outstanding assistance during our phone conversation. Austin McBride

Worst medical experience ever terrible healthcare nightmare
Utterly disgraceful medical procedure, revolting conduct from personnel and physicians who show zero concern and fail to respond even after an urgent 111 call. Completely intolerable - I will be filing a formal complaint against them.

Terrible service with fake review and long wait
Scheduling an appointment was an incredibly frustrating experience, taking six weeks of persistent phone calls before I finally secured a slot. Even after all that waiting, I was met with a hurried consultation where I felt completely rushed. To add insult to injury, when I returned home, I received a follow-up message thanking me for a review I never actually submitted, which made it painfully obvious they had fabricated the feedback themselves.
