On the 18th June I used the System On-Line to request a repeat prescription. To date I have not had a text to say that my prescription is ready for collection. In the OnLine System t says that my prescription is ready to collect! This is 9 days after my request and 7 working days. I have been without my medication for four days. This is not the first time that this has happened with an even greater delay in servicing my repeat prescription request. This is totally unacceptable. The whole system has become unusable since the take-over/merge of Patford House with Beversbrook. Today it took 10 minutes to get through to a receptionist on the telephone after the over long recorded message and left on hold. In your "Meet the Team" slot you talk about quality. Before retirement I was a Quality Manager for a large corporate organization. So far I have not noticed any quality in the Administration of this practice. What actions are you taking to improve the response time to requests, either by telephone or online? Please do me the courtesy of replying to this message.

Suggested improvements
Permit direct contact with Sutton Benger surgery. Desist from using a call center for all telephone contact. Find out why it is taking so long to fill a prescription request. Find out why i was not notified by text it was ready to collect. Improve the response time for requests.
