Worst medical practice ever horrible service
I'm compelled to award just one star, though even that feels too generous. This medical practice is utterly deplorable. In an entire year, I've only attempted to contact them twice, both times for my young daughter, and I deliberately avoid them whenever possible. During both instances, despite their supposed commitment to prioritizing pediatric care, they refused to see my 7 and 8-year-old child. Instead, they repeatedly advised me to call 111, which would inevitably lead to a lengthy and unnecessary A&E visit. The second time, I simply needed antibiotics, but their system is completely dysfunctional. The receptionist instructed me to call back the next morning, and I'm certain I'd still be unable to secure an appointment - apparently, one must physically queue outside before the clinic opens to have any chance of seeing a doctor. It's absolutely outrageous! People constantly praise the NHS and its supposedly free healthcare, but I strongly disagree. After all, it's hardly "free" when working citizens pay taxes and prescription costs. This experience has been nothing short of infuriating.
Attempting to schedule an appointment was an absolute nightmare. I started calling right when they opened at 8:30, and after persistently trying, I finally reached a receptionist around 10:30, only..

Absolutely subpar, forcing me to invest in private medical treatment. Likely no different from other general practitioner offices within the struggling National Health Service.
