Twice I have had to go to Westmorland urgent treatment centre because there were no appointments available. My treatment there was very good.

Suggested improvements
More available appointments but I know this is probably difficult. Whenever I have seen or spoken to staff on the phone all of them have been kind and reassuring.

Reception staff were not happy I would not give a reason as to why I needed an appointment. I do not wish to disclose this information to non clinical staff and this should not affect me receiving an apppointment.

Suggested improvements
Please ensure reception staff are respectful when patients do not wish to disclose personal information.
