Reception staff made getting appointments nearly impossible
*Update at bottom for 2023*. This has been the most disappointing medical practice I have attended. I cannot fault the clinical staff when I have managed to see them, as they have consistently demonstrated professionalism and courtesy. My concerns centre entirely on the reception team. Their approach has been consistently unhelpful. I spent weeks attempting to secure an appointment by telephone, only to be repeatedly refused. When I attended in person, I observed others being offered appointments while I was declined unless I disclosed my medical issue. I was uncomfortable sharing personal health information in a public setting, so I declined. I was offered a callback from a clinician instead, which never materialised. I subsequently registered with another practice and obtained an appointment the following day. By that point, my condition had deteriorated significantly. Test results sent to another facility were not returned. Within days, I required hospital admission for a serious infection with complications. Earlier medical intervention would likely have prevented this outcome. I would not recommend this practice. 2023 update. The situation remains unchanged. I am writing regarding a family member who is now seriously unwell. Similar to my own experience nearly six years ago, they have been attempting to access clinical care at this practice for approximately five months through repeated calls and visits, without success. They were admitted to hospital three weeks ago and received a serious diagnosis with a poor prognosis. This practice's approach is deeply concerning, as timely intervention months ago might have altered the course of their condition or improved their quality of life. The management of this practice requires review, and the organisation warrants formal scrutiny. Our family has experienced two instances where this practice's processes have resulted in delayed care. I was fortunate in my outcome; on this occasion, we were not.
The automated telephone system and digital messaging service do not adequately meet patient needs.
