On this occasion, a blood test, it was very quick. Generally for other appointments the wait is too long.

Suggested improvements
All good this time but seeing a doctor face to face is not easy and the wait times between each appointment when you are suffering and worrying is not ideal.

The staff at JCP are second to none! They all do a superb job. Often dealing with difficult patients who are not patient!

Suggested improvements
Nothing. I am always looked after at JCP. Thank you

Never had a problem making an appointment, avoiding the busier times E.g. first thing in the morning.

Suggested improvements
Nothing, my needs were addressed… Doesn’t affect the service at all but the whole place could probably do with some redecoration. It’s VERY old fashioned. The pharmacy (Well) probably isn’t anything to do with the surgery, but it looks an absolute mess.

My experience was excellent . Was made to feel at ease by the specialist and his nurse. A student was in attendance and also helped with the sutures, she was very confident. Cannot speak highly enough of my experience.
