Comments made on questionnaires March 2015 Keep up the great work Excellent surgery recommended Friendly staff always helpful –thank you Never had a problem general excellent Need baby changing facilities Reception levels and staff levels are not fit for purpose had to wait to let the receptionist know i was here for my appointment Always helpful and friendly have always looked after me and my wife I am not sure why I get asked why I need a blood test Appointments need to be more available with the senior doctors for advance bookings of importance If you have long standing issues it is hard to see the same doctor who is up to speed with your case Excellent doctors nurses receptionist, nothing is ever too difficult I have always found the receptionist and doctors very helpful and pleasant Been with the practice for a year and first impressions are not good. First visit was unsuccessful and did not like the gp or attitude, also I have been prescribed medication without seeing the doctor which seems odd Best GP’s I have been to since moving to Manchester from London, best ever actually Always received an excellent service Very helpful Have been unable to see Dr Schryer usually see dr who does not know me therefore I only attend when sent for Excellent service particularly form the reception staff It is nearly impossible to get an appointment when needed. It causes me distress and makes my condition much worse The surgery is doing well but needs better receptionists sometimes seeing a different doctors makes me have more blood tests than needed, registrars need to look careful at blood results Very friendly Generally excellent I would prefer for me and my family to go to a lager practice where there is time for us not everyone has time to sit and call I chose this practice because it is the only one people I know didn’t complain about. I have had trouble getting online so I can make appointments Very good practice If you can’t see a doctor the receptionists should give you advice what to do and where to go Lovely doctors practice all the doctors and receptionists are friendly and make coming to the doctors easy Very good Appreciate the need for music outside the rooms but it could be quieter or more relaxing less aggressive Vision online went on the system last Thursday and there were no doctors’ appointments available…………………the system not helpful of efficient appointment should be offered for a2 week period and updated on a twice weekly basis Dr Davidson is excellent and will make a brilliant GP{ Thank you all so much for your care I don’t understand why it is so difficult to make an appointment even a week in advanced, not impressed with the service. The doctor I see is very good though Great well run practice – thanks There is a nurse that is condescending and impolite. Gives an oral test on how to respond in scenarios where first aid is needed. If she really cared she could hand out slips with clear instructions instead of putting people on the spot Some reception staff are particularly unhelpful Very good Great practice helpful staff Make it easier to get an appointment with your own doctor on the same day Used to be excellent has gone down over the past few years The practice is very friendly. Doctors are helpful with children……………never field to get an appointment if needed even on the day, very impressed It would be great to see the same doctor every time Appointment should be booked at more times through the day I don’t have a computer and it is frustrating to get appointments on the phone, everything else is fine Nice friendly staff, good GP’s Not enough appointment Staff lovely GP’s lovely premises now very smart We have just moved drs and are very impressed with the help and professional attitude we have received Very satisfied with aspects and services Sometimes you need and urgent appointment other than on a Monday and you cant get through on the telephone The fact that doctors take the time to listen to you eases your mind It is an excellent surgery
