Response from Swanswell Medical Centre

Thank you for your feedback. Our receptionist reported that you arrived at the surgery at 7pm, half an hour after closing time; you were verbally abusive to her and banged the window directly in front of her face, which she found very threatening. The practice adheres to the NHS's Zero Tolerance policy, and as such does not expect staff to be subject to verbal or physical abuse.
