My routine blood test was carried out most efficiently by the Practice Nurse——- I never felt a thing ! As I have a long term heart problem I have to attend the Surgery periodically and I can say I always receive the very best attention from the Practice . Long may it continue!

Suggested improvements
I can’t add anything to what I have said above ! Oh! Other than a non medical comment is that the surface at the entrance to the car park appears to be deteriorating very badly !
