Thank you to everyone who has responded. The majority of our patients have been satisfied with the treatment received. However we recognise that a number of patients are not happy with the current system of the triage system to request an appointment or if they are not offered help in the timescale they would wish. Unfortunately due to continuing high demand and in line with many other practices we need to ensure we manage demand as safely as possible. This system means that the doctors are booking their own appointments and so we do need to ask some information about the reason an appointment is requested. We encourage our patients not to give this information in person at reception -- we prefer for confidentiality reasons our patients phone us or complete an e-Consult.
Some of our patients have commented that they are not happy as they have not been seen on time. Please be aware that although we allow 15mins for each appointment some patients unexpectedly need longer and so the clinician may run late. We do try to advise patients when the doctor is running late and allow sufficient time for appointments but this is often unavoidable. if you are unable to wait when the GP is running late, then we would suggest you re-book the appointment.
We will continue to evaluate and monitor feedback.
