Probably the worst GP surgery in the UK. The phone system is an absolute joke. You are forced to sit through endless recorded options that feel designed to wear you down before you even join a queue. Then you sit in that queue for what feels like hours. When you finally get through, you are told you need to wait for a callback. If you are lucky, that callback might come. My wife is unwell. Today she could not get through at all. She was told to ring 111. She did. 111 told her she needed to speak to a GP and arranged for a doctor to call her back. By 6pm on Friday we had heard nothing. I rang the surgery and was told they had too many calls and would not be calling back until Monday. That means a genuinely unwell patient is left hanging all weekend. Accessing basic primary care should not feel like trying to win the lottery. It should not be this hard to speak to a doctor when someone is sick. Completely unacceptable.
