Phone lines impossible to get through on
Deeply disappointed with my experience. I preferred my previous practice in another location. The appointment system is frustrating—calling at the designated time results in no availability, and the phone lines are constantly busy, making it difficult to get through. I was scheduled to see a clinician but instead saw a different healthcare professional who suggested I call back the next day for the appointment I thought I had. The reception staff came across as unhelpful and dismissive, which affected how welcomed I felt. Processing repeat prescriptions takes considerably longer than expected. After blood tests were taken, I was told someone would contact me, but weeks later I was informed it was my responsibility to follow up, despite being told they would call. A health concern I presented was not taken seriously and attributed to something else entirely. I subsequently required hospital admission where I received a different diagnosis. Overall, I found the care and attention to be inadequate and felt my concerns were not properly addressed or investigated.
When I book an appointment, I often find myself waiting several days before I can be seen, as the practice frequently indicates that no slots are available on the day I request. This has been my..

Disappointing experience at this practice. Appointments were not adhered to and the overall visit felt unproductive. Would not recommend signing up. Not satisfied with the service provided.

If I could have given zero stars I would have. The practice appears to be staffed primarily by locum doctors who seem unwilling to see patients. Management appears inadequate and obtaining an..

I have been waiting for nearly five days without receiving a response. Each time I contact the practice, I am told to expect a call back in the morning. I am quite disappointed with this experience.
