Patient comments Very pleased with surgery and doctor To be told there is nothing wrong with you Dr needs to listen to his patients more not fob them off Flexability if your late for apt. Excellent practice Drs and Nurses very good. Some reception staff not Helpful Pleased with surgery Grateful to receive NHS heath check Dr has always referred myself and family as required quickly Dr very good to improve midwifery Evening apt would be helpful To have longer time seeing doctor Very happy with service Very good service Very prompt referrals against out of hours service Always refer me to appropriate specialist. Delays with hospital apt Friendly reception staff and fantastic nurse team. Against having a nurse treat me on a Friday so could travel to surgery instead of community nurse They are all helpful against surgery phone Maybe open at weekends and later in the evening appointment made longer Nurse availability on a Friday Double appointment, longer time Choice over which doctor to see without being made to feel like your inconveniencing them Time it takes to get through on the phone Yes I’m checked regularly Ability to see doctor at short notice seems to have improved also would be good to be able to book own appointment online Compared to other surgeries appointments easy to come by. I am actually "out of area" but love the service so much I have requested to stay with this surgery. Doctor very friendly, natural. Music too loud in doctor's waiting room. Could be turned down a bit.

Doctor looking at you when you are talking rather than the computer Excellent reception staff very patient. Long wait for the Nurse Good practice. Fortunately do not have to use services very often Handy to have blood pressure machine in waiting room Doctors and Nurses generally very effective. Would prefer to have family planning at my surgery. my care is very good satisfied with service Having 10 min apt as at old surgery had only 5 min To Listen to what the patient is saying, I feel that they feel like I’m making it up Good practice with excellent receptionist and good doctors Very helpful receptionists This is a very good surgery. Possibly more to keep small children amused whilst waiting Quickness of being seen,treated and referred Excellent practice Ability to see G.P. sooner I would just like to add that on all ocassions that I have seen my doctor she has always been very thorough and I am very pleased with her as a doctor. Good in General. Repeat prescriptions. Piped music too loud in Doctors waiting room! No music would be better! New surgery I have only just joined surgery and only seen a nurse. So far I am very happy. Its quite confusing where to go as I assumed its all in one building. Appointment booking quicker Generally a good service, no problems, would recommend A proper doctors building rather than portacabins. Being told all the doctors names and who will see before an appointment. Early morning appointments from say 8.30 My doctor cares, Nothing to improve Doctor understands I know more about children than him as I have 10 which helps a lot

Nice doctors, but some reception staff can be rude and had to go to A&E for appointment as an emergency because no available appointments. Better building and more toilets. Better phone system as have to come down the surgery for appointment at 8am. Would love to be able to do an online booking for an appointment like some other practices I know as you dont always get an appointment. Like all the staff, feel free to ask questions. Would like more doctors. Improve Appointment Times Nothing to improve A Saturday service or a drop in doctor. In general the surgery runs a pretty good service. I find the doctors to be very knowledgeable and I trust their decisions regarding my care. I work 9-5 (or later!) every weekday so ability to see doctor in evenings (eg until 6.30pm) would be beneficial. I was very impressed, I was given an appt within an hour of phoning this morning. Thank you its all very good fully satisfied all ok Very satisfied with my care im satisfied
