Booking an appointment was really difficult

The booking process for appointments presents significant challenges.

Dear Miss Legon, Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback about your experience. I'm truly sorry to hear that you feel our appointment system is a nightmare; please accept my sincerest apologies. It's never our intention for patients to feel this way, and we genuinely appreciate you highlighting your concerns. Knoll Medical Practice operates as a GP-led total triage practice. In simple terms, this means that rather than offering a first-come, first-served appointment booking system, every request for a consultation is assessed by a GP first. This allows us to ensure that patients are directed to the most appropriate clinician for their needs, whether that's a GP, a practice nurse, a pharmacist, or another member of our wider healthcare team. This model is designed to prioritise patients with the most urgent medical needs and to manage the significant and ever-increasing demand on primary care services. We recognise that this system can feel challenging to navigate at first, and we are not in any way refuting the difficulties patients can face in accessing care. We want to assure you that we are working extremely hard as a practice, and collaboratively with our colleagues across the Orpington Primary Care Network, to make significant changes to improve access for everyone. It appears that our reception team have been able to assist you but should you require any additional support please don't hesitate to contact the Practice again. Thank you again for your valuable feedback. Best regards, Callum McQue Practice Manager Knoll Medical Practice
