Made appointment over the phone to see the nurse. I was given an appointment for the afternoon only to find when I attended the appointment had been made for the morning. I was only able to get half the treatment that I had made the appointment for, meaning I have to come back again another time. This is not acceptable.
The care was very thorough with follow up appointments and explanations by nurse Barbara Robinson very clear.
The care undertaken by the nurses has been very good/excellent in my experience the GP's do not have the luxury of continuity and appear to have limited opportunity to read recent records.
Improvement.
In your reception, you have a notice "please wait here" so that the queue goes from reception in a line towards the door. I have long asked for the notice to be placed at the beginning of a row of chairs so that people many unwell and elderly can without fuss sit to wait in the queue.
The doctor I saw was very abrupt, very unpleasant experience.
