I have consistently held the practice in high regard, though my latest visit has been disappointing. I submitted an enquiry via the NHS app to avoid taking up an appointment slot unnecessarily. A clinician rang me the following day and, following our discussion, indicated they would like to see me in person.

The service fell short of expectations. The reception staff came across as unwelcoming and appeared disinterested in assisting patients.

Being a significant number in the queue to speak with reception staff about health concerns felt like an unacceptable experience. I found this level of service to be deeply disappointing.
