We now have a bicycle rack in the carpark for our patients who prefer to cycle to their appointments. This was after a suggestion left by one of our patients in the suggestion box in our waiting room. We appreciate your comments and suggestions.

Some of you may recall completing a questionnaire on patient satisfaction. The main area highlighted for us to improve was on waiting times. While we always make every effort to run on time, sometimes unexpected emergencies and complex problems may cause delays. We are continually aiming to improve waiting times and we thank you for your patience and understanding.
Another area for improvement was not being able to make an appointment with the doctor of their choice. We do hold open appointment times to be booked on the day and endeavour to see all urgent cases, it is not possible to always be able to see your doctor at a suitable time.
Comments were also made on the welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff and confidence in their doctor. We thank you for your feedback.
