Bad!
Worst healthcare service ever unprofessional staff
When I desperately tried reaching out for medical guidance, having exhausted all other options to contact a GP surgery, the phone representative's behavior was shockingly unprofessional. Her demeanor was incredibly hostile and her communication was appallingly disrespectful. Not only was she unhelpful in addressing my concerns, but her attitude was so offensive that I was stunned someone working in healthcare could treat a patient seeking advice with such contempt. This experience was so negative that I would absolutely never suggest anyone use this medical service, and the staff member's conduct was completely unacceptable and degrading.

Compassionate care for our family's health needs
Oakfield medical practice demonstrated exceptional skill not just in registering our entire family, but also in addressing our young child's medical needs. The general practitioner promptly returned our call with precise guidance and a clear action plan. We are truly grateful for their comprehensive and attentive care.

Oakfield surgery delivers top-notch patient care
Oakfield Surgery is truly exceptional. Their innovative phone system allows patients to receive callbacks, eliminating the frustration of waiting in long queues! This morning, I called at 8am and by 9:10am, I had already spoken with a receptionist and my doctor, and collected my prescription. Their telecommunication setup is impressively efficient, with receptionists quickly recognizing patients through their advanced systems. The doctors are compassionate professionals who genuinely take time to understand and address patient needs, consistently providing excellent care for both myself and my young son. I feel incredibly supported by this practice and cannot help but commend them for maintaining such a seamless, high-quality service despite the numerous challenges currently facing general practitioners. Oakfield Surgery sets a remarkable standard that other medical practices would do well to emulate in terms of patient-centered care and operational excellence.

Frustrating registration process at local gp surgery
This service is rather disappointing. The registration process is problematic if you're already registered with another general practitioner. My wife doesn't drive, and the surgery is practically next door, just 0.3 miles away. It would be far more convenient, and there are positive online reviews. Something doesn't seem right here. I'm uncertain whether this is a council regulation, but I can't comprehend why I'm unable to register or transfer. My wife is now forced to travel or take a taxi to a surgery located 3 miles away, which is incredibly inconvenient.

Frustrating healthcare with endless waiting periods
The booking process here is incredibly frustrating. Instead of direct in-person consultations, you're forced to start with a phone appointment, which typically gets scheduled a full week out. After that initial phone consultation, there's yet another week-long wait before you can actually see a physician. When you're genuinely concerned about a medical issue, two weeks feels like an eternity. The clinic's management has clearly deteriorated since the pandemic, showing a complete lack of efficiency and patient-centered care. Moreover, unlike most medical practices, they haven't implemented online booking, which further complicates the already cumbersome appointment system.

Exceptional healthcare that truly serves the community
AN OUTSTANDING MEDICAL PRACTICE THAT EPITOMIZES THE IDEAL NHS STANDARD. Throughout my life, I've been registered with five different healthcare providers across the UK, and this one unquestionably stands out as the best. During my 18-month association, every staff member - from physicians and receptionists to nurses and the practice manager - has consistently demonstrated exceptional commitment in addressing a diverse spectrum of medical requirements, including preventative screenings, routine check-ups, illness management, hospital referrals, prescription renewals, and vaccine administration. Their approach has been characterized by remarkable professionalism, genuine compassion, and remarkable efficiency, consistently delivering timely responses through telephone consultations or in-person appointments as needed. I sincerely wish I could personally acknowledge each individual working at Oakfield Surgery! Your collective dedication is truly appreciated and remarkable.

Compassionate care that truly makes a difference
Over the last twelve months, I've been dealing with multiple health challenges, and I'm truly grateful for the medical support provided by this practice. Compared to my previous experience in London, where healthcare responsiveness was slower, the service here in Aylesbury is remarkably efficient. I can consistently count on same-day callback support. The AskFirst app is an exceptional tool. Dr Chakraborty demonstrates remarkable empathy, actively listening and dedicating herself to identifying comprehensive health solutions. Furthermore, the reception staff are wonderfully kind and merit recognition for their outstanding patient-centered approach.

Amazing healthcare with caring and responsive staff
Excellent experience! The reception staff excel at their job, displaying warmth, politeness, and genuine hospitality. During a previous phone call, I was informed a physician would return my call, and Dr Chakraborty promptly responded within a quarter of an hour. My recent appointment was equally outstanding, with Nurse Laura Potter providing compassionate and comforting care. Having just joined this practice after relocating, I'm thoroughly impressed by the high-quality service and patient care. Heartfelt appreciation goes out to the entire team for their exceptional work!
