Trying to get an appointment here is just a waste of your valuable time. Causes you stress and makes you feel even iller!
I’ve made over 10,000 attempts to call the practice this week, it’s just constantly engaged. After my 934th attempt to get through I finally did.. i made it to position number 14 in the queue and waited another 1hr to speak to the receptionist to be told “Sorry no appointments left, try again at 8am”
I’ve had a text to call the surgery to make an appointment i said (as I still haven’t had my repeat prescription from 3 weeks ago when I’d put the request in)
“Sorry you’ll have to call again at 8am tomorrow” can i book an app for tomorrow or next week then please? “No prebookable appointments available im afraid”
I’ve called everyday for the last 2 weeks at 7:59am, i then call again at 8am and can’t get through. Why not just have an automated message to advise patients there’s no appointments? instead of wasting our time and energy!
I’m actively now-looking for another GP practice (although I really shouldn’t have to given the fact I live on Chapelford)
Mays well take yourself to a&e and save yourself the time and energy and stress of even trying to get an appointment.
The practice used to be so efficient when it was a shed, now the lovely new practice is built but doesn’t appear to serve any value to it’s patients as it has No Doctors( the irony)
Can anyone recommend another practice thats taking on new patients?
