Patient feedback for this practice reflects a mixed experience with distinct patterns across service areas. Reception staff receive consistent praise for courtesy, warmth, and helpfulness, with particular recognition for their responsiveness in arranging appointments and providing reassurance during medical concerns. Medical professionals, including doctors and nursing staff, are frequently commended for compassionate care, clear communication, and thorough clinical attention. However, significant access challenges emerge as a recurring concern, with multiple patients reporting substantial difficulties securing appointments within reasonable timeframes, extended waiting periods for both consultations and test results, and delayed service delivery affecting urgent medical needs.
Communication and administrative responsiveness present contrasting experiences. While some patients report efficient booking processes and timely digital interactions, others describe frustration with unresponsive phone lines, delayed prescription processing, and administrative failures in managing referrals. Appointment availability remains the most consistently cited problem, with patients describing two-week or longer waits for initial consultations and difficulty obtaining same-day appointments even for acute concerns.
The practice demonstrates strong interpersonal care standards when patients access services, with staff generally described as welcoming and attentive. However, the gap between care quality and service accessibility creates a significant tension in overall patient experience, suggesting that operational capacity constraints may be limiting the practice's ability to deliver consistent service across all patient interactions.

Frustrated after six days of medical runaround
Repeatedly instructed to call back later, I've been attempting to secure an appointment for nearly a week. Once an appointment is finally obtained, I'm brushed aside with no meaningful assistance. I've been forced to advocate for urgent tests and persistently follow up for results through numerous phone calls. The receptionists and doctors display a complete lack of empathy and seem utterly indifferent to my concerns.

Marsh green doctors saved my day
After thoroughly researching medical professionals in the Pemberton area, I've found an exceptional healthcare provider. Unlike many other practices where patients complain about poor communication and scheduling difficulties, Marsh Green Medical Practice stands out remarkably. They consistently demonstrate outstanding customer service, ensuring patients can always connect with staff and offering convenient same-day appointments. Their approach is truly impressive, and I'm thoroughly satisfied with the level of care and accessibility they provide.

Poor!
Frustrating wait for basic medical care
Previously, this medical practice was reliable, but things deteriorated quickly. When I attempted to schedule an appointment, I was informed no slots were available for two weeks. Upon calling back, I again encountered a two-week waiting period. After consulting the GP alliance, they promised to forward a note to the doctors for me to be seen. Eventually, I secured an appointment on October 26th and underwent blood tests. After waiting two weeks for the results, I called and was given an appointment at an inconvenient time. Consequently, I received another appointment at the end of November to discuss my medical situation.

Quick and friendly gp appointment scheduling
I'm absolutely thrilled! I recently signed up with this medical practice after my previous doctor proved ineffective, and the appointment booking process was incredibly straightforward. I was scheduled promptly, which is a stark contrast to the frustrating experiences I've encountered with other healthcare providers. 😁

Rude staff ignored my medical concern
I encountered discriminatory treatment from the front desk staff when I disclosed my medical condition, and they continued to handle me with disrespect and insensitivity despite my explanation.

Wigan surgery's shocking adhd referral fail
Unbelievable Medical Malpractice! Terrible service that defies belief. I was promised an ADHD referral back in April by the surgery/doctor, but when I contacted my ADHD clinic, guess what? No referral has been sent! After 7 months of waiting, I'm told I'm not even on the list!! This is the most appalling surgery in Wigan! - The receptionists couldn't care less, dismissively telling me "nothing I can do, speak to the doctor on Monday!!" I am absolutely enraged!!!!!!!! I demand my appointment first thing Monday to resolve this issue definitively! "Livid" doesn't even begin to describe my anger. I sent the forms to the surgery's email on 4 Apr 2023 at 15:44, which still sits in my inbox with zero action taken - pure NEGLECT!

Worst clinic ever with terrible reception
Completely useless service, scheduling an appointment is virtually impossible. Dealing with the front desk is a nightmare... Zero digital conveniences, absolutely nothing. I'm desperate to leave, but they couldn't care less about my concerns.

Constant texts driving me crazy
I aim to minimize interactions with them, only engaging when prescription renewal is necessary. Despite repeatedly requesting cessation of their text messages, which I find intrusive and harassing, they continue to flood my inbox. Their inability to perform this straightforward task leads me to conclude they would be utterly incompetent at handling more complex matters. Their service is dismally inadequate, bordering on humiliation. P.s. Yet another identical message has landed (27th March), complete with the same redundant Google review link and a non-functional NHS link.
