"Difficulty in booking the daily appointment "

About: Francis Grove Surgery

The appointment service seems to be too busy.

At 8am, the appointment telephone waiting list is over 25. It took over 20 minutes wait on the phone line.

There is a fear that I might be excluded after the last appointment slot was reached before my call was answered.

Also, there has been many locum doctors who are not ideal for a family gp service.

Maybe more salaried doctors is the answer to both above concerns.

On a minor point, there is a large turnover of receptionists. Some of them appeared to be untrained and presented poorly at their job.
