Online booking system created unnecessary barriers
I feel very let down by the appointment booking system currently in place at this practice. When I rang to arrange an appointment, I was instructed to complete the booking online using a new system that I had not been informed about beforehand and am unable to access due to not having mobile internet. Even after explaining that I was at work and could not leave, the receptionist maintained that I would need to visit the surgery in person so that staff could complete the online form for me. It seems counterintuitive that a healthcare provider would require a patient to travel to the premises to handle administrative tasks rather than taking the information over the telephone. The way concerns were handled is particularly troubling: Lack of Management Support: When I requested to speak with a manager, I was informed that none were accessible. Difficulty Making a Complaint: When I asked how to lodge a formal complaint, I was told I would have to attend the surgery in person to do so. Withholding Contact Details: When I requested the NHS contact information to pursue the matter further, this was not provided to me. The approach taken seemed to assume that my age meant I would naturally be comfortable with technology and have reliable internet access. This online-focused system appears to exclude people without adequate connectivity and demonstrates insufficient consideration for patients who are working. Overall, this represents a significant shortfall in the standard of patient care I would expect.
The facility maintains a peaceful and well-organised atmosphere. It is maintained to a high standard of cleanliness and presents itself professionally, with a helpful and courteous team.
