Booking system makes appointments unnecessarily difficult
The service at this practice has been disappointing for a considerable time, well before the pandemic. The way the practice operates, from reception through to clinical staff, feels poorly managed and frustrating. The appointment scheduling system is particularly problematic. Accessing appointments, arranging tests, or obtaining routine preventative health checks has been consistently difficult. During a recent visit for blood work, the clinical staff member was courteous and professional. However, when I enquired about having additional routine checks completed during the same appointment, such as blood pressure, weight, height, and metabolic measurements, I encountered resistance. While some measurements were completed, others were declined on the basis that they required prior authorisation from a doctor. Since transferring to a different practice, the experience has been markedly improved. I am relieved to have moved away from this surgery. The overall experience was very unsatisfactory.

When you can get to see a clinician they are good. Getting an appointment is appalling. Was 100% better under the previous management.

I would give fewer stars if possible, as this practice has been disappointing. Obtaining an appointment is consistently difficult, and when one becomes available it is often several days away,..

Not worth the effort attempting to contact them by phone as appointment availability is extremely limited and waiting times are very lengthy.
