The appointment was booked easily enough but the length of time from appointment to appointment is longer than I would like , also I would prefer face to face rather than telephone appointments as they seem to be the preference from the practice

Suggested improvements
All good

Delay of nearly 2 weeks before a telephone appointment but follow to this was very quick. Dealing with my initial enquiry online was good.

Suggested improvements
Shorter waiting times for appointments.
