Impossible to book appointments with a working life
This place could serve as a cautionary tale for surgery management practices! - Getting an appointment is extremely difficult for anyone with work or other commitments - While some staff members are courteous, they are vastly outnumbered by those who are discourteous and, to put it plainly, frequently dishonest. Claims of attempted contact have never been backed up by any missed calls or voicemail messages - Operations move at an exceptionally slow pace, with progress that is barely noticeable - They discontinued their premium rate telephone service not long ago; it seems questionable to charge patients for calling their local surgery, especially given that calls typically involve lengthy waiting times - On both occasions when I attended with my children, I was told "this is normal, they are well" only to find that urgent hospital appointments became necessary afterwards I have since switched to a different surgery and can honestly say it was one of the best choices I have made, particularly given the importance of my children's wellbeing

You could have experienced a serious health deterioration during the extended wait time for an appointment or while trying to reach the practice.

Everything mentioned in the initial review remains accurate. The only positive aspects of the practice are the two clinicians referenced in that previous feedback.

It has been difficult to secure an appointment during times of illness, as the reception team tends to redirect patients to 111 instead. I would have preferred to continue with my previous practice,..

Disappointing experience overall. It has been difficult to secure an appointment, and phone calls regarding prescription needs often go unanswered.
