What CQC reported

The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.

People’s experience

Patients reported that they were dissatisfied with the ability to contact the practice via telephone, they also reported difficulty accessing appointments at the surgery. Results from the National GP Patient Survey showed significant variation to national averages for contacting the practice via telephone. The practice was updating their current telephone system to improve this. We found that the practice had updated their complaints procedure and had a patient’s experience manager in post to improve this. Early feedback gathered suggested this was improving patients experiences, however actions taken so far were not sufficiently embedded to be able to demonstrate a positive patient impact.

Check the provider’s own website and the complete official CQC record before making a decision. If you need urgent medical help, use NHS 111 or call 999 in an emergency.
