Online booking system caused long medication review delays
I am extremely dissatisfied with this experience and would rate it far lower if possible. Each time I have attempted to arrange an appointment for a medication review, I have been directed to use the online system. More than three months have now elapsed since my annual review was due, and I felt compelled to abandon my efforts. Unexpectedly, I received a notification on 24th June informing me that a medication review appointment had been scheduled via telephone with a pharmacist for 29th August, which represents an additional two-month wait. At this point, I am already five months overdue for my review. I have concerns about the appropriateness of having this review conducted remotely by a pharmacist rather than in person with a doctor. According to the practice's own guidance on medication reviews for repeat prescriptions, reviews should be carried out by a doctor at minimum annually, or more frequently for some patients. I believe the practice should align its actual procedures with the standards it publicly commits to.

The reception team's approach was unwelcoming and unhelpful. There appeared to be gaps in their understanding of basic procedures.

The clinical staff here are wonderfully approachable and competent, making me almost reluctant to share this review for fear of the practice becoming overwhelmed! They demonstrate genuine empathy..

Consider seeking care elsewhere. This practice appears to be poorly managed. There are only 2 designated time slots each day when patients can call for any reason. Due to this limited availability,..
