Feedback reflects a mixed experience across the practice. Clinical care consistently receives praise, with patients highlighting professional, attentive, and compassionate consultations where clinicians listen carefully, provide thorough examinations, and offer reassurance during procedures. Reception and booking experiences present significant challenges, with patients reporting difficulty reaching the practice by telephone due to lengthy queues, limited appointment availability, and extended waits for callbacks. Communication barriers persist, particularly for patients with accessibility needs, with limited alternative contact methods beyond telephone and online forms. Prescription processing and referral handling emerge as recurring concerns, with delays in issuing medications and unprocessed referrals affecting patient care continuity. Some patients report feeling dismissed or not taken seriously when accessing appointments, whilst others praise the welcoming environment and courteous approach of reception staff. Digital communication options, including text messaging and online portals, are valued by those who can access them, though these do not meet all patient needs.
When patients successfully secure appointments, the care experience is generally positive, with clinicians demonstrating genuine commitment to understanding concerns and providing appropriate follow-up. However, systemic issues around appointment access, communication methods, and administrative processes create barriers that undermine overall satisfaction. The practice appears to be working to improve services, with some patients noting recent positive changes, though challenges remain in ensuring equitable access and timely processing of prescriptions and referrals.

Felt reassured during blood test appointment
The healthcare professional demonstrated a high level of professionalism and provided reassurance during a medical procedure, which helped to alleviate my anxiety. I typically experience significant nervousness in these situations, but their calm and supportive approach made the experience considerably more manageable.

Surgery actually listened and helped with my concerns
I cannot fault any of today's correspondence and interaction with the surgery. I have been kept fully informed and received assistance with an ongoing situation involving a medication concern that has been followed up on my behalf. Additionally, I was provided with information about a follow-up appointment being arranged for me regarding a separate matter that was unrelated to my initial contact with the practice today. I am extremely grateful for the support provided today, particularly with the second issue which the staff member was not previously aware of. I truly appreciate the help and consideration shown with both matters. Thank you—I finally feel that I have been listened to and supported rather than left feeling frustrated and dismissed. I am very satisfied with the care I received today.

Prescription requests ignored repeatedly by practice
I have been receiving ongoing medication through repeat prescriptions for an extended period, but recently the practice stopped issuing them despite multiple requests from my pharmacy. When I asked for a prescription for my son's medication, which is important for managing his condition and preventing serious complications, the pharmacy had to follow up on this themselves rather than the practice sending it proactively. This placed an unnecessary burden on the pharmacy staff. Should I need to pursue either prescription again in this manner, I intend to escalate this matter formally.

Repeat prescription requests ignored for weeks
I would rate this practice far lower if possible. Following extensive testing that required significant time away from work over the past year, I was prescribed multiple medications. However, the practice has not responded to my repeated requests for prescription refills over the last month. I have now exhausted my medication supply and feel reluctant to pursue this further given what appears to be a lack of concern for patient care. Should I experience serious or prolonged consequences from being without my prescribed treatment, I am considering pursuing legal action against the practice.

Phone queue system makes appointments impossible
One star is frankly too generous. When you call, you find yourself far back in a lengthy queue, and by the time you reach someone, appointments are unavailable, leaving you to submit a request through their online system instead. Everything that follows happens via text message, and if the practice decides a reply isn't warranted—even though you feel their response hasn't addressed your concern—you're unable to continue the conversation and must ring back to rejoin the queue. This experience has prompted a decision to register elsewhere.

Regular check-ins made me feel properly supported
The clinician has provided excellent care in managing my condition and has maintained regular weekly contact to check on my wellbeing. I feel very satisfied and reassured knowing that I can reach out to the practice in the future if any concerns arise, and that I will be able to discuss these with a member of the team.

Long wait and turned away at appointment
The worst GP practice. I waited considerably longer than expected for my appointment and was ultimately turned away. I was relieved to switch to a different surgery.

Phone consultation sorted everything quickly
Had a phone consultation today that proved to be very helpful. The x-ray was arranged, medication was sorted out, and I received a referral to a specialist clinic. The clinician was really good and dealt with my concerns well. I'm very grateful, as I've been managing on my own for quite some time and this support is much appreciated.

Helpful advice and genuine follow-up care
The healthcare professional I saw provided valuable guidance on the health concerns I was facing, and assisted me with managing my respiratory condition and offered support regarding weight management. They demonstrated genuine commitment to their work and created a comfortable environment that made it easy to discuss my health matters openly. They were also reliable in conducting follow-up consultations to monitor my progress.
