Patient Experience Summary

Patients consistently report positive experiences with clinical care, reception courtesy, and the welcoming atmosphere at the practice. Staff are frequently described as friendly, professional, and attentive, with clinicians taking time to listen, explain procedures clearly, and provide reassurance. Communication and explanation of care are particular strengths, with many patients noting they felt heard and supported during appointments. However, several service challenges emerge across the feedback. The online appointment booking system presents significant barriers, particularly for elderly patients who struggle with digital processes, and some patients report extended delays in securing appointments. Referral coordination issues have caused frustration, with instances of incorrect hospital directions and multiple referrals sent to wrong locations. Additionally, responsiveness to complaints and test result requests has been inconsistent, with some patients experiencing delays requiring repeated follow-up contact.

Despite these access and administrative difficulties, the quality of clinical interactions and the care environment remain strong. Patients appreciate the clean, well-maintained facilities and the efficiency of appointments once they are scheduled. The practice demonstrates particular strength in continuity of care and building patient confidence, with many long-term patients expressing satisfaction with the standard of service. Improvements to the booking system and referral processes would address the main areas of concern raised in the feedback.

A minor procedure was carried out at the practice. The experience was excellent, with a welcoming atmosphere that helped put me at ease. The subsequent follow-up appointment was equally positive. The facilities are clean and well-lit. The clinical team demonstrated professionalism throughout. The reception staff were very friendly and approachable.

Difficult to book appointments and get responses

Extended delays when attempting to book appointments without resolution. I have been experiencing bleeding and bowel difficulties with concerning test results. I have needed to seek assistance from other healthcare services as the practice has not provided adequate support with referrals, and I was directed to an incorrect hospital on the day of a scheduled procedure, which caused considerable stress. Multiple referrals were sent to the wrong locations, creating significant confusion. I have not yet received appropriate support for my condition. When I requested to arrange an appointment through the online system, the practice did not complete the booking and required me to submit several requests before receiving a response. Similarly, when I asked for my test results, they were not provided promptly and I had to make repeated requests, which was frustrating and inefficient. I hope the service will improve in the future.

Receptionists cheerful and prescriptions processed quickly

We relocated to the area two months ago and have had an excellent experience with the local surgery. The reception team members are friendly and supportive, and the clinical staff have demonstrated attentiveness and professionalism. I would gladly suggest this practice to others. The coordination with the local pharmacy is also very positive. When prescriptions are requested through the surgery, they are processed promptly and available within a few days, with the pharmacy staff being equally welcoming and efficient.

Online booking system stressful for older patients

Today would have been a four and a half star rating, if it weren't for the requirement to book appointments online. At my age, I struggle with modern technology and find the process quite stressful and anxiety-inducing. The reception staff were extremely helpful, and the clinician I saw was warm, engaging and personable. However, I would ask that consideration be given to older patients who find speaking directly with people less daunting. I even had to telephone the surgery to confirm I had completed the online process correctly, which meant it didn't actually save time for either of us. The surgery itself was immaculate. I have been attending for many years now.
