The receptionist was not helpful and very cool and distant. It made me not want to get another appointment. She said that they would be in touch but did not. I had to get in touch myself I was not impressed at all. If I had caught her name I would have reported her. This happened on the 15/9/2022

Suggested improvements
Teach your receptionists to be more considerate !!!! I was not impressed at all!!!!!

Feel like I wasn’t listened to by the doctor and I’m still in a lot of pain and really concerned that I’ve got an infection but wasn’t given any tests. I feel helpless.

Suggested improvements
Listened to what I was concerned about and helped me to find out the problem.
