Terrible medical practice with impossible appointment system
Complete Disarray. Who could possibly be overseeing this medical practice?? Anticipate waiting over an hour just to have your call answered. Also prepare to be disconnected when you're first in line, forcing you to redial and rejoin the endless queue. This has happened to me three times. Then expect to be curtly told you MUST book online at 8am, despite the recorded message suggesting phone bookings are possible. Miss that narrow window and suddenly no appointments exist, sending you back to square one. AskMyGP has been abandoned, clearly proving it was a terrible system. Now you're restricted to 'on the day' online bookings. However, you cannot book online because no appointments are actually available. Advance booking for routine appointments - such as following up on problematic blood test results - is completely impossible, even when you've been explicitly instructed to do so. I cannot afford to randomly wait in a queue hoping for an 'on the day' appointment. I need to provide my employers with precise appointment times and expected return-to-work schedules. Instead, I'm forced to request an entire day off because I'm completely uncertain whether, and when, I might be seen. The website is unprofessional, utterly unclear about procedures, riddled with typos and grammatical mistakes, and contains contradictory information. Absolutely unacceptable for a healthcare provider. Words cannot adequately capture how truly terrible this service is.
After an extended period, I took my son to see the family doctor, and the experience was refreshingly smooth. Booking the appointment through the patient App was incredibly straightforward...
