Reception staff gave wrong information and wouldn't listen
I have been attending this practice for a considerable time and I am disappointed by what I perceive as a decline in service quality. I recently had a telephone conversation with a member of the reception team who I felt was unhelpful and inflexible. I made a straightforward request but received information that I believe to be inaccurate, based on my professional background and understanding of relevant procedures. When I asked to speak with another member of staff, I was told this was not possible. I would encourage others to consider raising concerns through appropriate formal channels if they share similar experiences. The standard of service has fallen significantly compared to how this practice operated previously. I did have a positive interaction with another staff member who was considerate and willing to assist, though this was curtailed by the earlier unhelpful response. Beyond the reception experience, I have found some clinical staff to be supportive and competent. It is regrettable that the overall experience has been diminished in this way. I feel that while the practice expresses concern about patient conduct, some interactions from staff members have felt dismissive and unwelcoming towards patients. I have given a low rating as I felt compelled to reflect my overall dissatisfaction.
I am not a patient myself, but my daughter is registered there. I have had contact with the reception staff on several occasions with my daughter's permission. In my interactions, I found the..

The reception team's conduct fell significantly short of expectations, demonstrating a lack of courtesy and professionalism that undermined the quality care provided by the clinical staff.

The appointment scheduling system and overall management of the practice require significant improvement.

The practice does not always demonstrate professionalism, and there appears to be a reluctance to schedule appointments even when health concerns warrant attention.

The practice offers an electronic check-in system for appointments, which helps reduce time spent waiting at the reception area. The nursing staff were welcoming and provided good support.
