Surgery improvements make patient happy

The medical practice appears to be making positive strides. The replacement of the previously frustrating eConsult with accurx, linked to NHS login, means I no longer have to navigate through countless irrelevant questions that the doctor seemingly never reviewed. Navigating the website remains slightly challenging (the green-blue box with "NHS Contact us online" is the key), but it's significantly more straightforward now. Successfully scheduled an appointment at 9:30 on a Friday without being told they'd exhausted their daily eConsult quota. Received a text about an hour later offering appointment options at the surgery, with flexibility to book immediately or within a week, and the booking link remains active for seven days. Got seen promptly the same day, despite the late afternoon timing, by a wonderfully pleasant duty doctor. Prescription electronically sent to the pharmacy, and I collected my medication just ten minutes after the consultation. There's a palpable sense that someone within the practice is genuinely attempting to improve services, with noticeable success. 5th Nov 2024… Additionally, I've discovered further enhancements: the digital display screen for patient calls has been removed, which surprisingly feels more personal - having a real person call your name seems more welcoming for patients. Moreover, they now have an on-site physiotherapist, eliminating the previously extensive wait for appointments at Queen Mary's.
