The appointment was to give a blood sample arranged by the surgery, so no receptionist involvement and I didn't arrange the appointment.

Suggested improvements
Nothing - all went well

I could only book an appointment in advance for three weeks time. If I wanted one sooner I had to phone in the morning and it was still tricky to get an appointment. The receptionist worked hard to squeeze me in.

Suggested improvements
It was all very smooth, professional and the service was good
