Patient Experience Summary

Patient feedback reflects a mixed experience with the practice, characterised by strong appreciation for responsive communication and efficient service delivery alongside significant concerns about appointment access and system changes. Many patients report positive experiences with prompt responses through digital channels, particularly the WhatsApp consultation system, with same-day or next-day appointments frequently mentioned. Reception staff and clinical teams are consistently praised for courtesy, professionalism, and attentiveness. However, a substantial portion of feedback highlights persistent difficulties accessing appointments through phone lines, with lengthy wait times and system failures reported.

The transition from the previous Ask My GP platform to newer systems has generated divided opinion, with some finding the new approach efficient whilst others describe it as complicated and less user-friendly. Concerns also emerge around medication management delays, referral processing issues, and inconsistency in staff interactions. Several patients note the practice has deteriorated since COVID-19, whilst others credit recent improvements to the appointment booking system. The practice demonstrates particular strength in clinical care quality and staff courtesy, though operational challenges around appointment availability and communication consistency require attention.

Works well for me

Yes it's a very good practice for me personally who doesn't need to personally visit the surgery. I'm often happy to speak over the telephone or on WhatsApp but appreciate that this isn't for everyone.

Good practice

I have been a patient at the Brooke surgery since 1995 and have seen a gradual positive improvement. In the 30 years some of the changes have not always been beneficial to me but I appreciate that due to the increased patient base and increased staff I can’t expect a personal service and relationship with the one doctor I was signed up with.

Helpful GP assistants

I recently used the reliable messaging service chat doc on WhatsApp. Hannah a GP assistant who was professional, friendly and fast at responding replied within an hour and offered me an appointment for the same day at 5pm but sadly I couldn’t make that. 8.30am the next morning Sophie another GP assistant messaged stating she had referred me over to Hyde hub where someone would ring me to offer an appointment which they did. The service and care shown from Hannah and Sophie was fantastic. Thank you to the both of you.

Excellent service

I recently moved into the area from North Manchester. I have never experienced such quick responses and appointment availability in the past, it has always been very difficult. However this surgery’s new booking system allows you to request specific services with an instant response and they always try to accommodate you as soon as possible.

Progressive Practice

This practice continues to improve the appointment booking system. Introduction of technology Is making an impact and improving the system making it much easier. The introduction of Watsapp in particular has improved the system dramatically. Overall the service it delivers is a vast improvement on my previous experience elsewhere.

Timely appointment

I was seen twice firstly by a Paramedic and later by an ACP. My first appointment was thorough and professional however one of my symptoms was sadly overlooked. I returned a second time to discuss this enduring symptom and felt very reassured by the outcome which resulted in an appointment at TGH 4 days later. While I wouldn’t hesitate to see either of these professionals again, however I think deeper consideration might be given to matching patients with the most appropriate practitioner.
