Excellent service and all questions answered from my nurse, many thanks.

Dr was very kind and understanding as I was very emotional having lost my partner and my sister ! Sorted me out with a thorough examination, Even gave me a hug on the way out.

Like to thank the staff for their diligence and friendly approach. Was able to bring appointment forward due to the change of the skin condition which had become worse.

My appointment was with the nurse I’ve forgotten her name, but she was lovely. Very pleasant, very helpful and an asset to the surgery.

Felt at ease, Doctor really nice. Receptionist excellent and helpful.

Easy form to complete for appointment. Appointment given same day. Great discussion and examination with the doctor. Plus great help from receptionist.

Nurse Evans was excellent. Her manner was very pleasant, welcoming and professional.

Online triage system is easy to navigate and complete. I had return contact within an hour.

Appointment spot on time, and the Doctor carried out the steroid injection swiftly with explanation of procedure and expected efficacy of the drug shortly afterwards. Since my appointment the drug has taken effect and my RA symptoms are much improved, as expected.

Appointment was issued within 20 minutes of my on line application. Extremely helpful young man that I saw, I think his name was Ryan, a credit to the doctors and NHS.

My son received continuity with a GP that communicated age appropriately with him, this has made a significant difference in how he’s now approaching his own self care.

Helen (nurse) was really reassuring and has a lovely manner. She explained everything clearly and didn’t rush me. I feel a lot less anxious now.

The asthma nurse was very compassionate and understanding and eager to help me and my daughter with our asthma. She was really attentive and went above and beyond to make sure I was prescribed the correct medication.

The nurse was very professional and approachable. My dignity was respected throughout the procedure. The nurse was approachable and informative. Excellent service throughout. Thank you.

My experience is positive due to the good communication from the surgery. The Doctor was listening to my concerns and was positive to approaching my medical needs. My medication was given on same day and followed up to see how things were. I generally feel that the staff from administration to medical are courteous and friendly.

Dr Singleton was very polite, professional and direct. He addressed the reason for the appointment with empathy and a direct decision. I felt listened to and supported. Very happy.

Dr Harding has been amazing helping me with my skin infection. I was in agony she was kind to me and listened. I have been through a lot of trauma in the last 16 months. Dr Luty was fab too.

I was thoroughly impressed with the phlebotomy service I received today—there was absolutely no waiting, which made the whole experience feel seamless and well organized. The nurse who took my blood was not only highly skilled but also warm, reassuring, and efficient. Her calm and friendly approach instantly put me at ease, and I barely felt a thing. It’s rare to leave a medical appointment feeling genuinely grateful, but today’s visit was a masterclass in how healthcare should be delivered. Thank you for such outstanding care..

Really lovely staff, so caring.

The nurse, Katie, is warm, approachable and professional. She makes me feel valued.

Easy to use triage, appointment offered. Saw GP at appointed time.

I feel absolutely blessed to have such a good professional & understanding GP surgery especially as it takes a lot for me to leave my house, attend appointments & admit I’m struggling, feel ill, worrying & stressing about my health concerns.

I couldn’t do the appointment online, so the very helpful receptionist submitted for me.

Overall the experience was great, from reception staff, waiting room and phlebotomy nurse.

Felt I was listened to and everything was explained very well. Have to say much better than my previous GP surgery. Would definitely recommend family to go to this practice.

On time, early in fact. Very professional, faultless! Great job, keep it up! 😄👍
