Review of West Lancashire Out of Hours GP Service
25th August 2022


I phoned for help regarding my 7month old daughter. The doctor and all staff I spoke to who got me a phone appointment were so kind and reassuring. They provide the right care and made me feel like I was no trouble and wasn’t wasting their time.

Because I don’t have any of the issues? This is a weird question.

Suggested improvements
Advised on how long the wait would be when you got there but other than that everything was great!

The GP I spoke with was incredibly rude and uncaring. She did not let me speak and wasn’t interested in listening to me. She then hung up on me when I was still speaking. No help whatsoever was given, leading to a deterioration in both my physical and mental health.

Suggested improvements
The “professionals” dealing with service users should be abiding by the values of the NHS as a bare minimum; one of these being compassion. When dealing with a patient who is unwell and in distress due to this, I would at least expect the doctor to listen to the patient’s account of what has been going on.

999 said I had to have a gp call me within 6 hours only waited 30 minutes but the gp was supposed to advise me but said I knew better if I had to ring ambulance again… so this 30 minute wait for gp phone call would of been better waiting for an ambulance as my mum had water infection and a temperature

Suggested improvements
Just felt the gp call was unnecessary as already explained to operator about mums condition

Prompt response and problem dealt with efficiently and courteously. Very pleased tp speak to a doctor directly after initial online query

Suggested improvements
The 111 online form is rather longwinded ;if you know it's a minor infection be great to shorten that bit.
