Patient Experience Summary

Patients consistently praise the clinical care experience at this practice, particularly highlighting the professionalism, attentiveness, and warm communication demonstrated by nursing and clinical staff during consultations, blood draws, and screening procedures. Many patients report feeling at ease and well-supported throughout their appointments, with staff taking time to provide clear explanations and listen carefully to concerns. Phlebotomy services receive particular commendation for skilled technique and gentle approach, with patients noting successful procedures even when they have challenging veins.

Appointment access and waiting experience present a mixed picture. While some patients report successfully securing same-day appointments and being seen promptly, others describe significant delays in booking, with waits of two weeks or longer for urgent concerns. Reception experience is similarly inconsistent, with some patients praising helpful and compassionate staff, whilst others report dismissive attitudes and poor follow-up communication regarding test results and referrals.

Overall, the practice demonstrates strong clinical capability and patient-centred care values, though operational aspects around appointment availability and reception consistency would benefit from attention to ensure all patients experience the same level of responsiveness and courtesy throughout their care journey.

Amazing care from friendly healthcare professionals

Today I met Katie for my Asthma check-up and blood work. The reception was warm, with a welcoming staff member who genuinely engaged with me, showing a level of personal interest that's rare. She carefully listened to my experiences and asked thoughtful questions about my life. I appreciated being an active participant in discussing my treatment plan and understanding its suitability for me. Since Covid, I've struggled with motivation and getting out. A previous referral didn't work out, but after giving myself some encouragement, I'm now prepared to be referred to an alternative agency with potentially more supportive health pathways. Katie will help facilitate this referral. I also spoke with Kyle regarding my NHS App access issues, which I've been unable to resolve due to my limited technological skills. I explained that Sam was already aware of my problem, and Kyle committed to discussing this with Sam and following up tomorrow. Collaboratively, they've now reset my request, and I'm hopeful I'll be able to successfully reset the App soon. In conclusion, since joining PENDLETON MEDICAL CENTRE approximately 18 months ago, I've consistently found all staff members to be friendly, professional, and respectful.

Exceptional nurse katie made my blood test painless

During my appointment, I met a new nurse named Katie who left a fantastic impression. Her demeanor was incredibly warm and her approach was meticulously detailed. Since this was our first encounter, we engaged in a comprehensive discussion covering my medical background and overall health status. Historically, my veins have been notoriously challenging for medical professionals during blood draws, but Katie demonstrated remarkable skill by successfully collecting blood samples on her initial try, with absolutely no resulting bruising or visible marks.

Exceptional care and compassion at pendleton medical centre

I've consistently had excellent interactions at Pendleton medical centre, across all staff members. I hope I'm remembering correctly that the receptionist's name is Linda, who was incredibly helpful and compassionate during our phone conversation. She genuinely took the time to assist me, making me feel like a valued individual rather than just another patient being processed quickly. Additionally, I want to commend the GPs I've encountered, with a special mention to Dr. David Lam for the outstanding letter he wrote on my behalf. He truly listened to my circumstances, concerns, and requirements, which was evident in the detailed and personalized letter. My gratitude goes out to everyone at the centre who is dedicated to helping me get back on the right path.
