About: Millgate Healthcare Partnership

I’ve been in this surgery for over 30years and since Covid it is impossible to get to see your GP! if you manage to get through on the phone which is after trying for over 40 minutes there is always an excuse why you can’t see your GP! If you fill the online form in you may be lucky enough for a receptionist to call you who then asks your personal information and then a decision is made if you should be seen! It’s an absolute joke! We all have the right to see our GP and not be fobbed off with a text or even better fill a questionnaire and then you’re diagnosed! It’s absolutely shocking and should be sorted! A drs receptionist should not be referring you to the hospital when you can’t get to see your GP that is the reason for the 12 hour waits when you do need the hospital in an emergency

Absolute shambles and everything has been blamed on Covid!

We're very sorry to read your review on our practice. Our practice has a huge range of clinicians as primary care has changed over the last few years, we now have GPs, Advanced Clinical Practitioners, Paramedics, Nurses, Health Care Assistants, Physiotherapists, Mental Health specialists, Social Prescribers and Pharmacists. Our patient advisors are trained to sign post patients to the correct clinician and at times if a patient indicates serious issues they are also trained to direct patients to attend hospital in those cases as this is the safest route for them. We have over 13,000 appointments every month with patients and deal with over 11,000 telephone calls. We are sorry your experience with us has been negative at this time and hope that it improves in the future.
