Bad
Appointment access poor, one symptom only allowed
I have struggled to obtain appointments and found that only one symptom can be addressed per visit. This has resulted in me being prescribed medications for multiple conditions and being referred to a specialist. I was informed that my various symptoms may not be connected, though a specialist surgeon expressed surprise at this assessment, suggesting they likely are related. The process has taken approximately two years of back-and-forth appointments, with the specialist providing more thorough investigation than I had previously received, spending considerable time reviewing my full symptom history, which I appreciated. I intend to change practices as I now have clarity on my health concerns and would not recommend this surgery to others. I have been a patient here for many years and recall it being a well-regarded practice previously. The current experience has been disappointing across multiple areas including appointment availability, online consultation responses, and reception staff interactions, though I have found the clinical doctors themselves to be competent. The overall experience has been frustrating, with me needing to contact emergency services multiple times last year to secure timely appointments. I would advise prospective patients to consider alternative practices, as I do not recommend this surgery.
