Pollard Row Surgery

Readily available emergency appointments on morning of treatment, though understandably difficult to schedule one that isn't in the middle of the working day. Otherwise, a two week+ waiting period. Surprised I was, however, when I attempted to book the next available appointment either before 9:00 or after 18:00 to be told that the calendar wasn't yet available to book appointments three weeks away, and until then all of those appointments were taken. I've had one experience of seeing a doctor and it wasn't a very thrilling experience. I was in the room for less than one minute, being prescribed something without being tested to "save time" and being treated quite condescendingly, making what was already an awkward topic even more embarrassing to reveal. It wasn't overly bad, his advice did the job it should have, but I have come to expect a more personal experience at a GP; rather than a what is wrong with you, okay take this goodbye. At least a "hey, how are you, welcome to the practice! what have you been up to today?" wouldn't gave gone astray!
