Comments from the F&F Test
From the recent Family and Friends Test, here is a selection of comments we received:
-
The doctor was excellent but my wife had to wait outside the surgery for 35 minutes in a queue to even get a chance of an appointment. Seems ridiculous in the 21st century
- I spoke to Nurse Burgess on the telephone and had F2F consultations with Dr Borchardt and Dr Vania. All were very friendly and professional and put me at my ease. Thank you all very much.
- I have to wait for a month just for a blood test - way too long!
- Very good all round service from all the staff
- Always good amazing surgery
