Patient Experience Summary

Patient feedback reflects a mixed experience with significant operational challenges alongside pockets of positive care. Appointment access emerges as a persistent concern, with patients reporting lengthy waiting times, difficulty reaching the practice by phone, and frustration with booking procedures. Reception experience varies considerably, with some patients praising welcoming and friendly staff, whilst others describe unresponsive or discourteous behaviour. Communication issues are widespread, particularly around the phone system, which patients characterise as difficult to navigate, with extended hold times and calls being disconnected or left unanswered.

Consultation delivery has generated divided opinions. Some patients appreciate responsiveness to urgent needs and same-day appointment availability, whilst others criticise rushed consultations and the reliance on telephone appointments when in-person assessments are preferred. Care quality appears inconsistent across the practice, with several patients commending specific clinicians for professionalism, attentiveness, and compassion, whilst others report feeling unheard or receiving inadequate support. Administrative issues including lost paperwork, cancelled appointments without explanation, and miscommunication about consultation formats have contributed to patient frustration.

Positive themes include instances of exceptional courtesy, continuity of care for long-term patients, accommodation of special needs, and willingness to go beyond standard hours when needed. However, these positive experiences are substantially outweighed by concerns about access to services, organisation, and the consistency of care delivery across the practice.

Terrible customer service left us helpless

Waited first in the queue for a solid 10 minutes starting at 4:30 pm, yet no one picked up the phone. Truly appreciate the lack of support when we were desperately seeking assistance for my father, who is struggling with serious mental health challenges.

Exceptional healthcare and compassionate staff always deliver

I've been a patient at this medical practice for almost a dozen years, and I have absolutely no complaints. Jenny at the front desk is exceptional at addressing any inquiries my family and I might have. We exclusively see Dr. Helen, who is wonderful with my special needs son, making him feel completely comfortable. She consistently provides comprehensive medical support for all our requirements. As a person with a disability, I particularly appreciate the telephone consultation option. We've never experienced significant wait times for appointments. This practice is our one and only choice, without question. 5☆

Rude receptionist ruins medical center emergency experience

I visited the dental clinic with my 6-year-old son and 14-year-old daughter and received satisfactory service during my appointment. However, an urgent toilet situation arose with my young son. The friendly receptionists directed us to the adjacent medical center. Upon arrival, I encountered a staff member named Anna at the reception who was extremely unhelpful. She sarcastically laughed and flatly refused to allow my desperate son to use the restroom, insisting the facilities were exclusively for their patients. Despite explaining the emergency and my son's urgent need, she dismissively suggested we return to the dentist's office, laughing with her colleague. I was bewildered by the presence of three unused toilets in the building and found it incomprehensible that they remained locked, especially for children. Anna's complete lack of compassion for a child in distress was appalling. Even my children were stunned by her behavior, with my daughter commenting on her rudeness. Maintaining composure in front of my kids while witnessing such unprofessional and heartless treatment was incredibly challenging. The entire situation was absolutely RIDICULOUS.

Terrible medical practice with unhelpful doctors

This medical practice is subpar. They're constantly short-staffed and consistently refer patients elsewhere, especially for eye-related issues, despite being a general practice. The specialists they recommend are ineffective and unprofessional. Their patient care is shockingly poor, leaving me with a deeply negative and frustrated experience.

Frustrating customer service at local medical practice

Getting in touch via telephone is an absolute nightmare. Moreover, the in-person experience is equally frustrating, with staff members at the reception seemingly more interested in their own discussions behind the counter, completely ignoring customers who are standing right there. It's a relief to have finally changed medical practices.

Mixed experiences with local gp surgery team

Most physicians at this medical practice are top-notch - I've consistently received outstanding care from nearly all of them, feeling genuinely heard and having my health concerns addressed quickly and effectively. Dr Ahmed stands as the sole exception, who invariably makes me feel overlooked and undervalued - I would personally caution against scheduling with him, though individual experiences may vary. Securing appointments requires a specific strategy: you'll want to phone precisely at 8:30 AM to position yourself in the queue for same-day scheduling. For non-urgent consultations, I recommend utilizing a digital platform like the NHS app, connecting it to the surgery's system, which enables convenient advance bookings - including after-hours appointments.

Terrible customer service and endless waiting time

Every time I try to contact them, they never answer the phone. Last Friday, I was left waiting on hold for three-quarters of an hour before ultimately giving up. This communication approach seriously needs improvement 😔😔

Frustrating healthcare experience with constant miscommunication

Signed up with this medical practice recently, and from the start, it's been a frustrating experience. Initially, they claimed they never received my registration paperwork, forcing me to resubmit everything. Since then, they've canceled two of my scheduled appointments without proper explanation. When they said the next consultations would be conducted via telephone, I waited patiently for their call, which never came. Upon calling them myself, I discovered they actually intended these to be in-person meetings. I'm completely exasperated by this healthcare provider who seems more interested in creating complications than actually providing support and medical care.

Terrible customer service wastes my precious time

Completely absurd. I spent nearly two hours on hold, only to be informed upon arrival that I needed to schedule an appointment via phone call - a frustrating and time-consuming process that left me thoroughly exasperated.

Exceptional care when we needed it most

Encountered a challenge with my daughter's medication at the local pharmacy and medical center, but they went above and beyond by modifying her prescription during off-hours when they were typically closed for the weekend, and even personally delivered it to our home so she could pick it up on Saturday. The healthcare professionals I've interacted with, both for myself and my daughter, have consistently demonstrated professionalism and courtesy.

Helpful gp surgery with reasonable phone wait times

Admittedly, their phone line is consistently busy, but the queue notification system is helpful, allowing you to estimate wait times and multitask while on hold. I've been genuinely satisfied with this medical practice. They efficiently resolved a medication mix-up with minimal effort on my part and accommodated an urgent appointment, handling everything with remarkable professionalism and kindness. While calling on Monday mornings inevitably means a lengthy wait and likely same-day appointment unavailability, this seems to be a widespread issue across healthcare providers nowadays.
