Reception staff blocked complaints and refused appointments
I have had a very frustrating experience at this practice. Many of the clinicians appear dismissive and unhelpful, often refusing to consider referrals when they cannot provide treatment themselves. I found several interactions to be condescending and disrespectful, with my concerns not being taken seriously. The reception team has been particularly problematic. I experienced difficulties when trying to book an appointment, as I was pressed to disclose personal details about my visit and was denied an appointment when I declined to provide this information. When I later questioned what had occurred, I received conflicting accounts from multiple reception staff members about the interaction. There have also been ongoing issues with my medication management. The practice has repeatedly claimed not to have received communications from my specialist mental health service, despite these being sent. This has resulted in gaps in my medication supply and periods where I was prescribed doses that were too low for my needs. The nursing staff have been consistently professional and supportive, and I have no complaints about them. However, this alone has not been sufficient for me to continue with the practice. I would recommend considering alternative GP practices before registering here. I subsequently raised a formal complaint and requested a meeting with the practice management. Despite the practice's initial suggestion that I arrange this appointment, the manager did not provide a response to my concerns.
I've been waiting as the first person in the telephone queue to book an appointment for 40 minutes.

The team members are very welcoming and approachable. It would be helpful if card payment facilities were available, as I had to make an unexpected trip home to collect cash.

I can genuinely say that the practice makes a real effort. I have consistently received good service. The reception team works hard to help patients.

I've been attending this practice since childhood, and when my own child was born, it seemed like the natural choice to register them here as well. Unfortunately, the standard of care has declined..

A local practice that my wife attends, and I have accompanied her to appointments. She has seen a healthcare professional there who provided excellent care.

I really appreciate having to take time away from work only to receive a cancellation message just before my scheduled appointment was meant to begin.
