"Reception Worse Experience ever "

About: Gillies & Overbridge Medical P/Ship

I had a infection, was given cream to resolve, it was not enough, requested more took over a week that it got re-infected, got more cream, told them it would not last, so in the same day requested more, at 5 days I rang and asked it the prescription was ready, its with the doctor, rang at 6 days told it was at the chemist, when to chemist no prescription, now told that it was only day before and I have to take pot luck in the morning to get a doctors appointment.

If the receptionist/prescription had done they job the infection would have been cleared by now, uncaring & unsympathetic staff, and its a nightmare to get an appointment, however I have had no issue with the doctors or medical practitioners I have managed to see.

Very unhappy.

Dear Patient

I am very sorry to read that you have been unsatisfied with the service you have received from CGH Partnership regarding an infection that didn't resolve with the first prescription for cream. With our new online consultation service, Dr. iQ, you will be able to quickly request further medications that have been prescribed to resolve infections. We have a trained team of administrators and clinicians making sure that requests for medication are dealt with promptly so I am sorry that this didn't occur in this instance. If you would like to contact us confidentially with your name then we can see what specifically occurred and how the system failed.

Kind regards

Jane May
