Discharged from hospital , told to make an appointment for the following week to have wound dressing changed , not a single appointment available over four days so had to go to wGh to have it changed , a job the nurse could of done at the surgery , took 5 mins , appalling service from gp surgery , booked a further appointment the following week to have clips removed from my knee which was done by the nurse . All ok

The receptionists were very helpful in retrieving my previous history and guiding me to a relevant appointment. The option of having my treatment at the practice is amazing! Lovely knowledgeable physio with ability to inform and be patient.

Suggested improvements
