Overall its a good surgery
In an ideal workd I would like to be able to see my own doctor however this isn't possible on some occasions. Is there some way the patients registered to a particular doctor see that doctor without having to wait sometimes up to 1-2 weeks. If doctors saw there "own" patients as a priority then shared the workload of others where necessary could this work? Having a continuity of care really helps both patient and doctor I would have thought
The patient access site is great for getting appointments butyou often have to wait about 5 days. Its good that you can ring if you urgently need to be seen though. Great practice
Everyone is always helpful and professional
It would be good to see the GP quicker. It was over 1 week between booking the the initial appointment and seeing the doctor
