It's really easy to get an appointment and the process of the appointment is so soft. The staff are also very friendly.

I required a repeat prescription of a particular analgesic (Gabapentin), and sent a detailed e-mail to request a further supply up to the time I am booked in for surgery to relieve the pain (hopefully) by decompression of the nerve root. I was told at reception that I could not have a repeat prescription issued as I hadn't received the drug previously (not true). However, a nurse would be able to help. I saw the nurse after a very short wait, and she confirmed I could receive Gabapentin, but only for the same period (about a week) as my previous prescription! I pointed out that this would mean repeat prescriptions every week until my planned surgery in a month's time, but was informed that only a doctor could provide a prescription for a longer period, and a telephone consultation would be necessary. However, at reception, I was informed that the earliest date for a telephone consultation with my GP would be in ten days (by which time I would have run out of my supply of Gabapentin). I pointed out to the receptionist that abrupt withdrawal from Gabapentin can result in seizures, at which point she arranged a telephone consultation tomorrow with another doctor. So, assuming tomorrow's telephone consultation resolves the issue, all worked out well in the end, and everyone was friendly and helpful. But I didn't get the feeling that the practice was really on top of my case. I should also mention that the nurse also used the occasion to give me my flu jab, and check my blood pressure, so that was a definite positive.

I had an IUS inserted today and was made to feel extremely at ease. I was given plenty of information before hand and after and feel confident in my contraception decision as a result. Jo and Rosemary looked after me very well and made sure I was completely okay before I left. I was very nervous so I am extremely grateful for their care.

Very speedy service despite the business - waiting only 3 minutes to be seen is something of a miracle from what I'm useful. Nurse Jo was very kind, understanding and helpful in making next steps regarding treatment and making a follow-up appointment. Absolutely faultless and very reassuring for new students.
