It took 3weeks to get a proper (face to face) appointment. Following the appointment I’m now on an urgent referral for further tests. If I’d been seen straight away those tests would now be complete and hopefully I’d have peace of mind or at least have started treatment, but I’m still waiting. However the young GP trainee was excellent.

Suggested improvements
Stop the ridiculous telephone appointment system and hire more doctors to the practice.

Very satisfied with the care and experiences I have had on the last few occasions at the Helm Chase Practice. Lovely friendly doctors who were thorough and professional.

Suggested improvements
Sometimes getting in on the day you ring can be difficult and it's always a case of ringing at 8am promptly or the queues get long.
