The GPs are very good but this practice is let down by the rude and inefficient reception team. Lack of follow up, and inability to provide a clear update when a task will be completed. I’ve been waiting over 2 days for a GP or nurse signature for a child’s asthma approval form required by the school. Receptionist just responds it’ll get signed sometime, call back. This is very irresponsible and a child is at risk everyday this signature isn’t provided preventing him to use his inhaler at school. The least the reception can do is try a little harder to provide a bit more info and get a resolution. Being condescending and rude is the opposite of the skill set required here. Must do better, it’s not good enough.
