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.

Longtime patient notices covid impact on healthcare service
I've been a patient at this practice for an extended period. Their care was exceptional, but during and throughout the COVID pandemic, their service quality noticeably declined—a situation I attribute more to broader NHS challenges than to the practice itself. Despite this, I maintain my highest rating of 5.

Exceptional family practice with heart and history
I've been a patient at Brooke Road Surgery since childhood, spanning over two decades, and watching the practice's evolution has been truly remarkable. The transitions - from staff changes to receptionists, nurses, and doctors, and even updates to the office and waiting room spaces - have been seamlessly executed and remarkably efficient. Regardless of whether staff members are new or long-standing, they consistently maintain an exceptional service standard and always make me feel incredibly welcome during every interaction, whether in-person or via telephone. My initial medical experience was with Dr. Prasad, who was not just an outstanding physician but also an incredibly compassionate individual. He was always available for myself and my family, prioritizing our health and addressing our concerns with genuine care. Witnessing the practice being handed down to his son, Dr. Neeraj Prasad, has been truly heartwarming. Dr. Neeraj has magnificently continued his father's legacy, maintaining the same high-quality care and professional standards. Dr. Neeraj Prasad is, without doubt, the most exceptional doctor I've ever encountered. His kindness, patience, helpfulness, non-judgmental approach, and profound compassion are truly extraordinary. I feel immensely fortunate to be a patient at this surgery and to have met such wonderful healthcare professionals. Regardless of where life takes me, I will always remain committed to Brooke Road Surgery, as it holds an irreplaceable place in my heart. Blessings to them all ❤️

Exceptional healthcare with compassionate doctors and staff
Both medical professionals consistently demonstrate exceptional compassion, ensuring patients feel genuinely heard and understood. The front desk team is equally wonderful, providing top-notch support. Since I'll be relocating soon, I'm truly disappointed about leaving this practice, as it's an extraordinary healthcare facility that stands out from the rest!

Terrible doctor with zero empathy or care
Deeply disappointing encounter with Dr. Ramanathan. Disengaged, shallow, and condescendingly dismissive GP. She barely examined my child, completely disregarded my concerns, gave incorrect details about potential tests, and documented inaccurate information on her medical report. Ultimately, I sought a paediatrician's opinion, who validated how substandard that initial consultation truly was. Having professional experience in private healthcare, I understand precisely how compassionate patient care can offer crucial comfort, guidance, and emotional support during challenging medical situations. Healthcare professionals like Dr. Ramanathan can potentially cause significant psychological harm and dramatically escalate anxiety for patients and their families.

Disappointing nhs experience with poor patient care
The NHS serves as a prime illustration of the impending privatization trend, demonstrating profound systemic shortcomings through their rigid approach and apparent disregard for practical solutions. While I acknowledge the resource constraints they face, their operational incompetence and minimal patient-centered care are glaringly obvious. Despite understanding the underlying financial challenges, I cannot in good conscience suggest their services to anyone in my social circle.

Compassionate care at brooke road surgery shines bright
The receptionist who assisted me recently is remarkably skilled at her job and sincerely compassionate. I am immensely grateful for her dedication and commitment. She is absolutely fantastic, and the same applies to the nurse. It's rare to visit a medical practice and experience such authentic empathy and consideration, especially given the high patient volume. The fact that I felt such genuine care and concern demonstrates that these two professionals are truly exceptional representatives of Brooke Road Surgery and exemplary human beings. My heartfelt appreciation goes out to them both for their outstanding support, tireless efforts, and profound compassion ❤️💯

Great healthcare with caring and attentive staff
A top-notch medical practice that I cannot praise enough. Every member of the team exudes warmth and hospitality, with the doctors consistently demonstrating exceptional dedication to patient care. No request seems too challenging for them. The reception staff are consistently pleasant and supportive, and if they're unable to provide an immediate answer, they'll diligently investigate and follow up with you.
