Patient feedback reflects a mixed experience across the practice. Medical professionals consistently receive praise for their expertise, compassion, and responsiveness to patient concerns. Many patients report positive experiences with appointment booking, describing seamless scheduling and efficient access to care. The online platform for non-urgent queries has been noted as a valuable resource, with patients appreciating swift and informative responses from practitioners. Administrative and nursing staff are frequently commended for their welcoming atmosphere and professional approach.
However, reception experience emerges as a significant concern across multiple reviews. Patients report inconsistent courtesy from front desk personnel, describing interactions as brusque, dismissive, and disrespectful. Issues include interrupting patients during phone calls, rushing to end conversations, and unhelpful responses to routine requests. These reception-related concerns appear to undermine the positive care experience provided by medical staff, with some patients noting the contrast between excellent clinical care and poor reception courtesy.
Appointment availability presents occasional constraints, with some patients experiencing delays in securing consultations. While most reviews acknowledge the practice's operational challenges, a few patients expressed frustration with responsiveness to medical concerns. Overall, the practice demonstrates strong clinical capability and organisation, though reception courtesy and consistency in patient interactions require attention.

Lifelong care from amazing medical professionals
I've been a patient at this medical practice since childhood, and I've never encountered any issues. The doctors and reception staff are absolutely wonderful, always going above and beyond to provide assistance. If you're searching for a reliable healthcare provider, I highly recommend this surgery x

Bad!
Unhelpful receptionists ruined my healthcare experience
I get that they're swamped and deal with challenging people daily, but every single phone call leaves me feeling like an inconvenience they can't be bothered with. I simply wanted information about scheduling a flu shot, given my pregnancy and high-contact work environment, yet all I encountered was a receptionist's sarcastic, dismissive attitude. Her unfriendly demeanor made it clear she had zero interest in helping. This isn't an isolated incident - it happens every time I call. I find myself constantly apologizing and feeling anxious during these interactions, purely due to their hostile tone. If someone isn't committed to supporting patients and assisting those who are unwell, they shouldn't be working in a medical reception role. Despite these frustrating experiences, I want to emphasize that the doctors themselves are exceptional - I've found every physician I've seen to be incredibly caring and dedicated to providing top-quality treatment. I rarely leave feedback, but tonight's interaction was so disheartening that I felt compelled to share my experience.

Terrible healthcare practice with zero patient compassion
I'm reluctantly giving 1 star because the rating system requires a minimum rating, and if possible, I would rate this zero. This medical practice is arguably the most appalling I've ever experienced in my lifetime. The physicians are overwhelmingly pompous and demonstrate a complete absence of patient compassion. Their approach appears mechanical, processing patients like an assembly line, dispensing generic advice without any personalized or thoughtful medical consideration. I currently have an official complaint filed with the General Medical Council concerning this practice, and I strongly advise everyone to steer clear. Your health is paramount, and obtaining accurate guidance and appropriate treatment is crucial. This facility makes patients feel utterly degraded and like an inconvenient nuisance merely by entering their premises. Their professional conduct and patient care standards are shockingly and unacceptably poor.

Caring surgery with compassionate and understanding staff
The medical practice offers a welcoming yet professional atmosphere. Throughout my experiences, I've encountered no issues with either the physicians or administrative team. They consistently demonstrate a genuine commitment to patient care, though they must occasionally limit appointment availability to accommodate urgent medical needs. It's important to understand that they cannot simply conjure additional time slots when the schedule is fully booked.

Terrible customer service at this frustrating place
The front desk staff display a distinct lack of courtesy and professionalism. It seems they could benefit from some customer service training focused on interpersonal skills. While I recognize they have a lot on their plate, interrupting clients mid-conversation and rushing to end calls demonstrates a fundamental disrespect for customer interaction.

Frustrating healthcare costs for an undeserved illness
Deeply frustrated by the fact that my wife's physician has repeatedly highlighted the exorbitant price of her medication. She bears no responsibility for the medical condition that has befallen her, which was entirely beyond her control. My irritation would be less intense if her health issues stemmed from poor personal choices, but that is not the case here.

Terrible customer service ruins entire medical experience
Absolutely terrible front desk staff! Disrespectful, incompetent, and full of themselves... The sole negative aspect of this medical procedure.

Friendly staff overshadowed by rude receptionists
Medical staff are excellent, but the front desk personnel consistently undermine the practice's quality. They come across as brusque, unhelpful, and mishandled my medication refill. It's truly disappointing.

Exceptional care from a truly remarkable physician
An absolute standout in medical care - this physician is truly exceptional. I've never encountered a healthcare professional quite like them before. Their expertise, compassion, and attentiveness are unparalleled, making every visit a remarkably positive experience.
