Feedback reflects a mixed experience with significant variation in patient satisfaction. Clinical care is consistently praised, with patients describing clinicians as thorough, compassionate, and attentive. However, reception experience emerges as a major concern, with recurring reports of staff discourtesy, dismissiveness, and poor communication. Appointment availability presents a substantial challenge, with patients reporting lengthy waits, limited slots, and difficulty reaching the practice by phone, particularly during peak times. Administrative processes including prescription management, registration, and appointment confirmation have been problematic for some patients, though others report efficient service delivery. The practice environment and facilities are generally well-regarded.
Positive experiences highlight supportive nursing staff, welcoming atmospheres, and responsive clinical care. Conversely, negative feedback centres on reception interactions, appointment access constraints, and inconsistent service standards. Some patients note improvements to facilities, while others express frustration with resource allocation and service continuity. The disparity between clinical quality and administrative experience represents a key theme across the feedback.

Great!
Easy to reach and genuinely caring staff
I find this practice to be genuinely helpful and straightforward to contact. As a parent, I particularly appreciated how the nursing staff handled my child's recent appointment with such care and consideration, which also helped ease my own concerns. I'm thankful for the dedication and support shown by the team.

Bad!
Reception staff dismissive when booking appointments
The reception staff appear to believe that the clinical team communicate with patients in an unnecessarily abrupt manner. There seem to be difficulties with appointment availability at specific times, with phone lines not always being answered promptly. During a recent visit with a respiratory specialist, the appointment felt rushed and incomplete, with concerns that a proper assessment was not carried out. Another staff member appeared distracted by administrative tasks during the consultation, resulting in a lengthy wait.

Bad!
Difficult to reach with unhelpful reception staff
It is very difficult to contact this practice due to the limited availability window for reaching them, and when you do manage to get through, the reception staff can be unhelpful and unwelcoming.
