Patient Experience Summary

Patient feedback reflects a mixed experience with significant operational challenges alongside positive clinical care. Appointment access and phone responsiveness emerge as persistent concerns, with many patients reporting lengthy waiting times on hold, difficulty reaching the practice, and challenges securing timely bookings. Reception experience varies considerably, with some patients describing staff as dismissive and unprofessional, while others praise courteous and supportive interactions. Communication breakdowns are frequently cited, including missed follow-ups, lack of responsiveness to patient concerns, and inconsistencies between online information and actual practice procedures.

In contrast, clinical care receives consistent praise. Doctors are widely described as compassionate, professional, and attentive listeners who demonstrate genuine concern for patient welfare. Nursing staff are similarly noted for their supportive and welcoming approach. Several patients highlight the practice environment as accessible and well-organised, with efficient service when appointments are secured. The quality of medical consultations and treatment planning is frequently commended.

The disparity between clinical excellence and administrative challenges appears to be the defining characteristic of patient experience at this practice. While medical professionals consistently deliver high-quality, compassionate care, systemic issues around appointment availability, phone line capacity, and reception staff consistency undermine overall satisfaction and accessibility for many patients seeking to engage with the service.

Terrible service causing job loss and frustration

If you're seeking a private hire license medical certificate, steer clear of this place's waiting process. I was left unemployed for two months because of the staff's careless attitude, and I visited daily attempting to obtain the document. After two months of frustration, I switched to a different GP and received the certificate within just three days. I'm warning all private hire drivers to stay away from this medical practice if you want to maintain your employment and avoid the financial losses I experienced. Absolutely useless service.

Exceptional medical care with friendly and efficient staff

Absolutely amazing! I had to remove my previous review to share this experience. When I needed to schedule an appointment for my knee, I spoke with Shanti - an incredibly pleasant, courteous, and compassionate representative. She informed me about the booking process, which I completed the following day. At 8:30am, I made the call with minimal waiting time and secured a 10:40 appointment. I arrived early at 10:30 and was greeted by wonderfully friendly, professional, and welcoming receptionists. By 10:41, I was seeing the doctor - another delightful professional who attentively listened, arranged an MRI, and even addressed my hayfever concerns (something my wife's clinic would never do, as they restrict discussions to a single issue). I was back home by 10:55. The service was exceptional - so outstanding that I want to keep them all to myself and not recommend them to anyone else! Tremendous kudos to the entire staff - truly exceptional work!

Exceptional care and compassion at medical center

During my two to three visits in December 2022 for a knee consultation, I encountered the receptionist Madam Shanti Sharma, who truly stood out with her exceptional demeanor. She demonstrated remarkable kindness, professionalism, and a wonderful personality while assisting everyone with utmost care. Additionally, my appointment was with Dr. Nosheen Mirza, who was equally impressive - a brilliant physician with an outstanding personality, extremely helpful, and genuinely compassionate. I am truly grateful for their wonderful service.

Terrible medical experience with incompetent healthcare team

Completely unacceptable surgical experience with incompetent personnel. The entire team, including the supposed Practice Manager, seems unprofessional and unable to communicate effectively. Her lack of understanding of basic protocols is shocking, and I'm bewildered how she ever obtained her management position given her poor communication with patients. What was once a reliable medical practice has now deteriorated into a completely useless operation due to the substandard staff.
