Short notice appointment of a visit to a practice nurse to have knee replacement dressing removed and checked. Forgot to phone in advance for an appointment on 9/7/24 but got one on 10/7/24.

Suggested improvements
An appointment at Burton Road rather than Maude Street. But no essential as I did have transport but parking not as good.

I needed an urgent blood test and was lucky to get in as there was a cancellation.

Suggested improvements
I can’t say anything about that as I just had a blood test.

I have strong feelings that my cancer has returned

Suggested improvements
I was lucky to get an appointment for an important appointment for a blood test the following morning. The doctor has done an urgent referral to see a urologist for me. I just hope that I don’t have to wait too long.

It would be easier to get in to the Bank of England vault than it would be to get a doctors appointment

Suggested improvements
Whilst I was there, nothing, but to book a doctors appointment, everything. It just seems that you are no longer a general practice and all you are interested in is getting your figures good
