Patient Experience Summary

Feedback across the file reveals a predominantly positive experience with the practice, characterised by compassionate care, professional medical practitioners, and welcoming reception staff. Patients consistently report feeling heard and supported during consultations, with particular praise for the reassuring approach taken during screening procedures and routine appointments. The practice demonstrates strong continuity of care, with many long-term patients noting seamless transitions through staff changes and reliable service delivery. Booking appointments is generally described as straightforward, and the reception team is frequently commended for their courtesy and responsiveness.

However, a minority of reviews highlight significant concerns regarding appointment availability and access barriers. Some patients report extended waiting periods for appointments and difficulties navigating the booking process, with reception staff occasionally described as unhelpful or dismissive. Communication challenges emerge in certain consultations, with accounts of rushed interactions and practitioners appearing unwilling to fully address patient concerns. Additionally, management conduct concerns are raised in isolated cases, with patients describing unsatisfactory experiences when addressing administrative issues.

The practice's strengths in clinical care and team warmth are evident across most feedback, though systemic challenges around appointment access and consistency in reception experience warrant attention. Patients value the genuine empathy demonstrated by nursing and medical staff, though operational efficiency in booking and scheduling requires improvement to ensure equitable access for all patients.

Helpful physio solved my ankle pain problem

Had a great physiotherapy session where the practitioner truly listened to my concerns and took action by ordering an ankle x-ray—something my previous doctor had been reluctant to do. Much appreciation for their attentiveness and proactive approach.

Exceptional gp surgery with caring and reliable team

I can absolutely rely on this medical practice and its dedicated staff. Exceptionally dependable and genuinely caring about their professional responsibilities. They prioritize patient health and deliver an outstanding level of care. The reception staff consistently go above and beyond to assist and accommodate patient needs. They work diligently to minimize waiting times wherever possible and maintain a friendly, welcoming approach. No matter your reason for visiting, you can trust that you'll leave with a clear treatment strategy. I've been a patient here since 1997 and have experienced nothing but smooth, efficient service. Even in the rare event of a problem, they are proactively prepared to address and resolve any concerns. This practice stands in stark contrast to negative narratives about declining NHS standards. The entire team collaborates seamlessly to provide comprehensive patient care. I feel incredibly fortunate to be registered with this surgery.

Frustrating experience with poor communication and service

The staff struggle with fundamental communication skills, as they promised to contact me about scheduling but never followed through. The receptionist's approach was far from helpful, initially attempting to divert me to another medical facility due to fully booked time slots. I had to persistently navigate through the receptionist's unhelpful demeanor and essentially compel them to process my registration. After waiting past the expected call time, they ultimately denied my appointment. In future interactions with clients, I strongly advise taking accurate notes and implementing a more efficient appointment management system.

Her friendly demeanor and professional approach made the entire experience completely comfortable and stress-free. I'm truly grateful for her supportive care and ability to make such a potentially intimidating medical test feel manageable. Thank you, Lyn!

Compassionate care makes smear test less scary

I received an invitation for a cervical screening at the Brooke Road medical center, where the staff consistently welcome patients with warmth and friendliness. I want to highlight Lynn, who is truly an outstanding healthcare professional! Lynn possesses extensive expertise and takes the time to thoroughly describe each aspect of the screening procedure, which helped me feel completely at ease and secure. She eloquently emphasized the critical role these screenings play in women's health, explaining how a positive, supportive experience encourages regular testing and ultimately helps safeguard our well-being.

Rushed consultation left me feeling unheard and frustrated

I underwent a telephone consultation, which inherently feels impersonal and inadequate for properly evaluating medical concerns, though I acknowledge the practice's ongoing challenges from the pandemic's impact. The primary problem emerged through the practitioner's communication approach, who appeared rushed and eager to terminate our brief 8-minute interaction by repeatedly interrupting me when I attempted to articulate a persistent health issue central to my call. Their demeanor struck me as both unsympathetic and unprofessional, effectively silencing me before I could fully describe my situation. Ultimately, I was curtly instructed to contact them after the Christmas period to schedule an in-person appointment, which means I will likely wait over a month before receiving comprehensive medical attention.
