Referrals and follow-ups that other surgeries missed
I've recently relocated from a different practice. The feedback I've seen posted here mirrors my own observations about that previous surgery. Waiting times in queues tend to be a common issue across most practices nowadays. It's important not to judge one surgery as inferior without having experienced the same situation elsewhere, as other surgeries may not necessarily be better. My experience at my former practice was quite negative, which I'd prefer not to elaborate on. My son received a diagnosis and was having his medication adjusted repeatedly at that previous surgery. This current practice took a different approach by arranging a hospital referral rather than continuing with the same pattern of adjustments. He was seen at the hospital the very next day! He also deals with bowel-related concerns stemming from anxiety about discomfort. The practice even suggested a referral to a specialist team that supports patients with this issue. I wasn't even aware such services were available! My husband has a medical condition affecting one of his kidneys, and this practice has implemented annual health reviews to monitor his situation. The other surgeries we've attended previously didn't offer this level of ongoing care. Having been registered with three different practices, this one is clearly the best we've experienced. I should also mention that I've had positive interactions with the reception staff. I've spoken with two different receptionists and both were genuinely helpful and pleasant.
I struggled to secure a same-day appointment, and the booking system feels unwieldy and doesn't offer much improvement over the traditional early morning phone queue. I was offered a Saturday slot..
