Repeated prescription chaos and unhelpful reception staff
This practice has been a deeply frustrating experience. I struggle to express how dissatisfied I am with the service provided. The reception staff have not been helpful. I require an ongoing prescription for medication I have been taking consistently for many years and will need indefinitely. A decision was made by management to discontinue my extended repeat prescription arrangement. This means I now need to arrange a new prescription every month. However, each month presents difficulties. I must contact the triage system, await a clinical callback, and answer the same questions repeatedly despite my long medical history with the practice. Following these steps, the prescription frequently fails to arrive. I found it particularly frustrating when I was told it was my responsibility to ensure the prescription was processed. I was unclear how I could reasonably manage this aspect myself. The reception team would benefit from approaching patient interactions with greater understanding and patience. Patients deserve to be treated with respect and dignity. The management team bears responsibility for these recurring issues. The systems in place are not functioning effectively, and the overall experience suggests the practice is not meeting the standards expected of it. This situation requires serious review and improvement.
Called the care navigation service, but found they were unhelpful and didn't provide the support or guidance I was hoping for.
