"trying to contact my medical practice"

About: General practices in Greater Glasgow & Clyde

(as the patient),

For the last four months I've been trying to contact Spring Park Medical Centre with No reply. I'm forwarded on to 111.  This is off putting and left me disgusted in the service.

Dear Ziggywiggy61

Thanks for getting in touch.

I am sorry to hear about the difficulty you are experiencing with contacting Spring Park and for the distress that this has caused.

I will raise this issue with Service Manager.

Kind Regards

Nicole

I appreciate your reply. Haven't seen my phycologist from Springpark medical centre, since March. Sometimes things get bad, especially now I'm having physical problems, have to go to Stobhill, The Royal have to have M.R.I scan. The doctor knows me well. Appreciate your help.
