My last experience has been very positive. I was pleasantly surprised to have been able to get an appointment when needed. The receptionist was very helpful and pleasant.

Suggested improvements
A very individual opinion but I would prefer not to have endless music playing whilst waiting on the phone line and repeated information .

Thank you for helping me, I was feeling so poorly. I phoned in the morning and had an appointment and medication on the same day! Dr [name removed] was helpful, supportive and caring. I know the NHS is having a hard time at the moment but you are all doing such a great job! Thank you!
