Wow, i have been with this surgery for one Dr and one Dr only. Todays phone calls and visit have 100% made my mind up that i am leaving this surgery after more than 25 years. The reception team are rude and arrogant and obviously feel they have studied medicine themselves (as its certainly not manners and people skills). As a family we have had issue apon issue with this dr surgery and i am the last to leave. Triage is a joke as it can only be done online between 8am and midday (unless they have 75 applications and they shut it). For all the fun and games they where having after their lunch being shut between 2-3 ("get some tunes on" was heard from the staff at one point) there wasn't a sole in the place but me. 20 minutes late for the appointment, what appeared to be a jr dr who really didn't know how to listen to someones chest, asked me if i was from a medical profession as i knew what i needed (well i have suffered from similar after starting the same way 5 times). I was then told the medication would be with the pharmacist within 30 mins. 30 mins and it wasn't there so i went away for half an hour only to be told it wasn't there later either. When you feel really ill (the only reason i will visit a dr), the last thing you need is to hang around in a pharmacy. On phoning the surgery i was told that i needed to speak to their dispensary (in the same building and actually next door to the reception) and i replied that it was to be dispensed at Boots not their pharmacy. I was told to "listen to what she was saying and to phone their dispensary". I hung up before she could finish as i found it rather condescending to say the least. The dispensary where equally helpful and said it was sent over earlier............low and behold it appeared on Boot's system just after my call. Enough is enough, time upon time i have defended this surgery, but the truth is, they are rubbish as a whole
This practice has deteriorated significantly. I have been attending for a considerable time but am now considering transferring elsewhere. Although I'm uncertain whether other surgeries offer..

Honestly, I feel this surgery has deteriorated significantly. I don't visit the doctors frequently and it had been quite some time since my last appointment. My wife arranged an appointment for me..

The practice does not appear to take much responsibility for patients who are unwell, as obtaining an appointment through telephone booking can take approximately two months if you are fortunate..

The staff here are genuinely helpful and approachable, going out of their way to assist. When appointments aren't available, they make efforts to find alternative times or direct you to other..

The receptionist's manner was extremely unwelcoming and fell well short of what you would expect from someone in that role. The level of customer service provided was disappointing and detracted..

I have consistently had a positive experience at this practice. The service has been prompt, the environment welcoming, and the staff have communicated effectively throughout my visits.

The role of administrative staff in making clinical decisions rather than qualified medical professionals is something I find frustrating and inappropriate.
