I waited until I couldn't cope to make an 'on the day' appointment as I couldn't get an appointment within a reasonable time scale. Thankfully I was able to be seen on that day, and the Nurse Practitioner that I saw was very knowledgeable, listened, cared and was able to make a plan for the way forward in my treatment.

Suggested improvements
If appointments were available, before 4 to 6 weeks, I would have booked one. Instead I had to risk ringing at 0800 and hope I could be seen.

Easy to book an appointment and seen promptly. Reception staff friendly and helpful. Surgery clean and airy. The GP I saw was extremely well read on the issue and helped me to fully understand the process. I didn’t feel rushed during the appointment and left feeling very relieved and satisfied with the outcome.
