Phone booking improved but website appointments still broken
There has been a noticeable improvement in how quickly the surgery answers telephone calls for booking appointments, however the new online booking system does not show available appointment slots, making it impractical and forcing patients to phone instead. When I asked reception staff about this issue, I was told the feature had been turned off for the holiday period, which seemed like an unsatisfactory explanation.

I am currently considering whether to register with a different practice.

Why does it take such a considerable amount of time to reach someone when trying to contact the surgery?
