Patient feedback reflects a mixed experience across the practice. Positive comments highlight courtesy and responsiveness from reception and nursing staff, with several patients expressing confidence in the care experience and reassurance they have received. Some patients report effective communication and collaborative approaches during procedures, alongside appreciation for attentive listening to concerns.
However, significant concerns emerge regarding appointment access and the booking experience, with patients reporting difficulty securing in-person consultations. Reception experience presents a notable issue, with accounts of dismissive and unprofessional interactions during initial contact. Respect and care quality concerns are evident, including reports of symptoms being minimised, questions going unanswered, and patients feeling unheard regarding their health concerns.
Organisation and responsiveness to concerns also feature as areas of difficulty, with patients describing management as unresponsive to critical issues and noting a perceived deterioration in service standards compared to previous periods. The feedback suggests variable experiences depending on which staff member patients encounter, with nursing and reception staff generally receiving positive mention whilst concerns centre more on clinical responsiveness and the overall appointment access process.

Disappointed after decades of loyalty
Quality of service has seriously deteriorated compared to pre-pandemic times. Some employees display a notably unprofessional attitude and demonstrate minimal compassion or consideration towards patients. I'm now seriously evaluating my continued relationship with this practice (following the Practice Manager's suggestion), despite having been a patient for over four decades!

Poor practice with doctors that are willing to be rude, disrespectful and refuse toanswer genuine questions, ie efficacy of medication pushed on you.

Dismissive doctor failed my health concerns
Experienced medical mishandling where my symptoms were dismissed as mere anxiety, with healthcare providers minimizing the severity of my mental health struggles. They discouraged further investigation into potential endometriosis or adenomyosis, despite clear familial predisposition, effectively invalidating my genuine health concerns and leaving me feeling unheard and unsupported.

Rude doctor and unhelpful staff at clinic
Absolutely dreadful healthcare experience. Impossible to secure an in-person consultation, they consistently misinterpret medical conditions and maintain incorrect patient records, even when directly requested to make corrections. Their management is unresponsive to critical concerns. The lead physician demonstrates an arrogant and dismissive attitude. The sole redeeming quality is the consistently pleasant demeanor of the nursing staff during blood draw appointments.

Loyal patients love our longtime doctor
My spouse and I have been patients at Haverfield Surgery for more than two decades. We're completely in sync that the medical attention from Dr. Ciobanu and her nursing staff is outstanding. She truly hears our concerns, provides pragmatic guidance, demonstrates firmness when necessary, and consistently shows compassion. We consider ourselves incredibly lucky to receive such exceptional healthcare.

Appendix surgery saved me in greece
I suffered from persistent abdominal discomfort and suspected appendicitis. My general practitioner, Dr. Ciobanu, and the NHS healthcare system failed to identify the issue. They conducted various tests but found nothing, though I recognize that diagnosing appendicitis can be challenging. During a trip to my home country of Greece for work and family visits, the pain intensified. The medical team there immediately performed surgery and removed my appendix. Within days of the procedure, the pain completely disappeared! I'm convinced that Dr. Ciobanu is a physician who performs only the bare minimum without showing extra dedication. She didn't even prescribe basic pain medication, and I had to pursue every aspect of my medical care proactively. While Haverfield Surgery's reception staff are commendable, their medical professionals leave much to be desired.

Rude receptionist ruined my vaccine call
I reached out regarding a COVID vaccine concern, only to be met with unprofessional behavior from the receptionist. When I attempted to complete my thought, she abruptly told me not to speak over her, despite the fact that she had already cut me off mid-sentence. Had she simply allowed me to finish, there would have been no need for interruption. Her approach was dismissive and frustrating. Unsatisfactory service.

Small town doctors missed the mark
As someone who relocated from London, I found the small-town medical practice quite jarring. The condescending attitude and patronizing tone from the physicians made me feel uncomfortable, ultimately leading me to seek care elsewhere.

Supportive doctors when my child needed help
Whenever I've required assistance from my general practitioners, they've consistently offered help and solutions. This recent emergency room visit with my child has demonstrated that the care provided by My GP's is truly exceptional, efficient, and understanding of individual situations. I'm thankful I relocated to Kings Langley and enrolled with Haverfield Surgery - I now feel completely reassured and confident in my healthcare support.
