"Something needs to change."

About: Vernon Street Medical Ctr

I feel I need to leave this review, not to have a moan but in the hope that something is done about the terrible service currently on offer at this practice. I understand covid has impacted the NHS significantly, but when you can't get through at any time of the day and just get 'user busy' without even being added to a queue, it is very frustrating. Then, on the rare occasion that you do manage to get through to a queue, you are often cut off or are met with a really miserable team member. I can imagine the team will be getting a lot of grief at the moment from their patients - but it's really concerning how hard it is to receive any medical support with this doctors surgery. I truly hope something can change at some point soon.

Thankyou for taking the time to leave this review. We are working hard to try balance the capacity of staff we have against the significantly increased demand the surgery and the NHS are experiencing. Training with the reception team is ongoing, with the sole aim of providing the service that our patients need. Thankyou again for you comments.
