Patient Experience Summary

Patient feedback reveals a mixed experience across the practice. Many patients report positive interactions with reception staff, clinical teams, and administrative personnel, consistently highlighting warmth, professionalism, and attentive listening during consultations. Patients appreciate the welcoming reception experience and note that staff demonstrate genuine compassion when addressing concerns. Several patients specifically mention responsive service and swift resolution when issues are identified.

However, a significant proportion of feedback identifies concerns around consultation quality and clinical decision-making. Some patients report rushed appointments where symptoms were overlooked, leading to inadequate treatment or inappropriate diagnostic approaches. Communication challenges have been noted, particularly regarding appointment access and the ability to consult directly with medical professionals. A small number of patients describe experiences involving refusal to rectify medication errors or reluctance to escalate concerns to clinicians, raising questions about responsiveness to patient safety issues.

Continuity of care emerges as an area where patients would welcome improvement, though many acknowledge the practical constraints of medical practice. The practice environment itself receives positive comment for its thoughtful design, though reception areas are noted as somewhat cramped. Overall, while many patients express confidence in the service and report positive care experiences, the feedback indicates inconsistency in consultation quality and clinical responsiveness that warrants attention.

Rosie and team went above and beyond

During the past fortnight, I've interacted extensively with Rosmellyn while managing my elderly relative's health situation. Their collaborative approach is impressive, with consistently professional and supportive staff. Receptionist Rosie stands out as especially dependable, always delivering on her commitments - a crucial lifeline for me, given my distance from the location. The doctors demonstrated excellent care by conducting an urgent home visit and successfully preventing hospital admission through a Home First referral. My sincere appreciation goes to their entire team.

Quick wound check with caring nurse

I'm not a resident of this medical facility, but I'm staying with a friend who is a patient there. Today, I came in to have my surgical wound examined. After calling on Friday, I was scheduled for an appointment on Tuesday. The nurse was incredibly compassionate and welcoming, even offering to re-examine the wound before I depart in a few days. Much appreciation.

Missed appointment despite painful back journey

I am utterly frustrated with the reception's handling of my situation today. Due to transportation disruptions with the train strike and delayed bus, I arrived 25 minutes behind schedule. I had proactively informed the receptionist beforehand about my potential late arrival and explained my severe back pain. Despite this, the receptionist refused to let me see the physiotherapist. This is particularly galling because in previous visits, I have consistently been punctual, yet today I was turned away when I was merely running late. The additional stress of rushing from the station has only intensified my existing pain. It is unacceptable that a receptionist can unilaterally decide a patient's fate without consulting the medical professional, especially when the patient is clearly in significant discomfort. Their rigid approach shows a complete lack of compassion and understanding.

Confusing care for my knee injury

Complete waste of time and medical incompetence. I received a potential meniscal cartilage tear diagnosis and was directed to get an x-ray, which makes absolutely no sense since x-rays are designed for bone imaging, not soft tissue examination. When I challenged the doctor about this, they claimed I "must have an x-ray before a CT scan" can be ordered. Roughly two weeks later, the surgery's staff randomly informed me that I don't have arthritis - a condition I was never originally diagnosed with. When I tried explaining this to the receptionist, she simply stated, "That's all I have in front of me." Absolutely no treatment, no solution, and they flatly refused to let me speak directly with the doctor or have the doctor contact me back.

Insulin prescription nightmare for parents

Attempting to secure insulin for my child, the prescribed medication turned out to be incompatible with her insulin pen. Despite a direct intervention from her diabetes care team, they stubbornly refused to rectify their mistake. Their reckless disregard potentially endangers patient safety—I strongly advise steering clear of this healthcare provider.

Caring staff made my healthcare journey smooth

The staff here go above and beyond to provide exceptional service. Whether I'm navigating the NHS app or speaking directly with receptionists or administrative personnel, I'm consistently met with warmth and genuine compassion. The medical professionals - from doctors and nurses to the phlebotomy team - are attentive listeners who genuinely engage with patients, taking time to discuss treatment options and value individual perspectives. Even in instances where something might have been initially overlooked, they've been remarkably swift and efficient in addressing and resolving any issues.

Botched procedure left me in total pain

Terrible medical procedure - Steer clear unless you're seeking complications. The entire experience was a nightmare from start to finish. The surgeon seemed incompetent, the staff was unprofessional, and the aftermath was pure misery. I cannot emphasize enough how much I regret going through with this. Save yourself the pain and find a different healthcare provider. This was, without a doubt, the worst medical decision I've ever made.

Mixed feelings about local medical practice

I've consistently experienced supportive and professional service from the entire team, starting with the reception staff and extending to the nurses and permanent doctors. While the occasional presence of foreign trainee and locum physicians can sometimes lead to communication challenges due to accent difficulties, which may create slight misunderstandings, I appreciate the overall quality of care. Ideally, I would prefer receiving treatment from the same medical professionals for better continuity, though I recognize that this isn't always feasible in a medical practice.
