Phoned at 12.10pm and got a doctors appointment at 5.00 - perfect.
Had a good discussion and agreed treatment.
I’ve been coming in every week for a month and every one I have seen have been kind & very caring when changing the dressing on my hand, I appreciate how lovely everyone has been. Thank you.
The option to be called back when there is a large queue doesn’t always seem to be offered. Maybe it has to be over a certain number? When it is offered it saves a lot of time, when not the wait is frustrating and time consuming.
Am happy
I am writing to provide feedback on my recent consultation with Dr. on 01.05.24 at 13:45 I visited the surgery due to a severe cough that has persisted for the past 3-4 months. I informed Dr that I had already tried various remedies with no improvement.
During the consultation, Dr examined my chest and advised it sounded clear. While I appreciate this initial assessment, I was disappointed that no further investigation was offered within the appointment. Given the duration of the cough and the ineffectiveness of previous treatments, I felt a more comprehensive approach might have been beneficial.
Specifically, I would have liked to discuss:
• Possible causes for the persistent cough beyond a chest examination.
• Alternative diagnostic options besides an X-ray, or if an X-ray was deemed necessary, referral for one within the appointment rather than a walk-in service.
I understand that doctors have limited time per appointment, but I believe a more in-depth discussion could have helped identify the cause of my cough and determine the appropriate course of action
