"Reception staff are rude and got no patience."

About: The Manor Practice

I have been a patient at this practice for the past 20 years. The reception staff have always been so helpful. The new staff are rude and arrogant. They claim they can't hear you on the phone.

It is annoying when one has called 3/4 times and has to wait for at least 20 to 30 mins for someone to answer a call.

One could die waiting to speak to a Doctor.

Several times I have called asking to speak with a Doc and have been put through to a nurse.

I am happy with my Doc and would like to continue seeing my Doctor.

Another thing the phone system being used is totally useless when one got to hold on for 20 to 40 mins. It's ridiculous really.

Please we the community ask for a better solution to all this to make it better for our local system.

Customer service needs improvement.

Honestly how can a Receptionist tell someone they lying. Really. How rude is that.

I have been trying to make an appointment but wanted to speak to a Doctor first. I have made 3 attempts on 3 convective days.

Dear patient,

I am sorry to hear you have not been satisfied with the service provided at our surgery. As you know, this is an extremely busy practice. We have 5 telephone lines and 4 reception staff to take calls from 8 O'clock in the morning till 6:30 in the evening. But there is always room for improvement. I will pass your feed back to our telephone provider to see how we can further improve our service.

If possible please let me know separately which staff memeber you are talking about so we can discuss your concerns further and look into this matter.

Please call on 02085398950 as soon as possible and ask for a practice Manager to discuss your complain.

Best Wishes,

Practice Manager
