Feedback, Compliments & Complaints

There are three main ways to feedback about your experience of our GP Surgery and the service we provide.

Friends and Family Test

The NHS Friends and Family Test (FFT) was created to help understand whether patients are happy with the service provided, or where improvements are needed. It’s a quick and anonymous way to give your views after receiving NHS care or treatment.

We use the information captured via the Friends and Family Test to improve our service. It is anonymous, so if you would like to discuss your experience, it is better to contact us through our general feedback form.

Patient Testimonials

It’s important for any new patients to the practice to hear what other patients say about our services.

Here’s what they have to say:

Received Friday 27th February

I just wanted to write to say thank you for the outstanding care I received today.

  • 10:07 I called to make an appointment for a new inhaler. The receptionist checked I didn’t have one on repeat, gave me a choice of 3 appointments over today and tomorrow.
  • 10:09 I called back as I forgot where I was going, friendly and professional confirmation of Jane at Burney St.
  • 10:30 appointment with Jane. On time, great review of my asthma including the latest advice. She also checked my daughter was up to date with her immunisations and gave her a sticker.
  • 13:00 picked up prescription from my local pharmacy.

No paperwork or fuss, just friendly knowledgeable care exactly when and where I needed it. I wanted to share this great experience. Thank you.
