Lifesaving care from compassionate medical heroes

Seriously, those criticizing this surgery have no idea how fortunate they are. My son is unfortunately registered at Waterbeach, which is arguably one of the worst practices in Cambridgeshire. It took me some time to share this experience, particularly after a severe cold he suffered just before Christmas. Being 5 years old and with a history of respiratory hospitalizations, we were desperate to avoid another hospital stay. Despite numerous calls during the week before Christmas, securing an appointment at his regular doctor seemed impossible. Out of sheer desperation, I contacted Market Cross, where I'm registered. Remarkably, they accommodated him as a temporary patient since he was staying with me. Reflecting on the past year, I've attempted to book appointments for him at least twelve times, with only one successful consultation - which typically results in hospital visits. Incredibly, at a surgery where he isn't even registered, he was seen within two hours. Dr. Tollit was exceptional, providing invaluable advice about temporarily adjusting his asthma medication - something we were previously unaware we could do. Her recommendation worked immediately, essentially saving our Christmas. However, the receptionist was truly extraordinary. Though I regrettably didn't catch her name, her approach was refreshingly sensible and helpful. She went above and beyond to assist us, embodying a level of customer service rarely seen today. If she's reading this, she was absolutely brilliant. To the practice partners: this woman deserves a significant raise!
