All good and on time. Staff went out of their way to put us at ease
The overall experience was exceptionally good. Why? It is an anxious time and staff were continually reassuring and willing to share information as to what to expect and what happens next. A culture of good customer care was demonstrated.

Overall the visit was very good although the practice is a long way from the car park. We were assured that we would not have to pay for parking but the barrier did not let us through and the attendant had no details of our car park luckily we had a blue badge with us with allowed us out.
Thank you for your review. We are glad that overall your visit with us was positive. We understand our clinic is far from the onsite parking so apologise this caused any issues during your appointment. We are also sorry to hear your parking ticket did not activate the barrier and we will need to review this as this shouldnt be the case. Wishing you well. Kind regards
