Caller 28 in the queue, spoke to the GP with query pulled muscle in chest. Asked to be seen to reassure all ok. Hoped for examination, blood pressure, pulse checked but instead referred to hospital. Attended hospital to be advised it was in fact, a pulled muscle. Lots of time and resource wasted.
He was very helpful with dealing with my enquiry.

Because doctors DONT listen to what we say. I was advised to never go to this surgery and due to poor notes and NOT noting I’ve always said it’s an injury I’ve lost a £20,000 civil case even though my notes at physios say otherwise. Dr’s need to listen to detail.

Negative Feedback and our Responses:
We apologise for any inconvenience or frustration caused to our patients as evidenced by the small percentage of negative feedback received. We value our patient’s feedback and would like to address each concern individually:
‘Caller 28 in the queue, spoke to the GP with query pulled muscle in chest. Asked to be seen to reassure all is ok. Hoped for examination, blood pressure, pulse checked but instead referred to hospital. Attended hospital to be advised it was in fact, a pulled muscle. Lots of time and resources wasted.”
Regarding the query about a pulled muscle in the chest, we understand your frustration with being referred to the hospital instead of receiving an examination at the GP practice. However, it is important to note that the GP’s decision to refer you to the hospital was based on providing the most appropriate care for your condition. The GP’s role includes signposting patients to the most suitable services, and in this case, it was determined that a hospital assessment was necessary.
“Was expecting a telephone consultation on the 11th of September after 13:00 hours which I did not receive.”
We are so sorry to hear that you weren’t able to get the appointment you scheduled. We’ve found that many patients provide their mobile phone numbers as the call back number. Sometimes the ring is on silent or they pop into the next room and miss the call. We sincerely hope this doesn’t happen again.
“I went to have blood take nfor regular testing, but then got told a urine sample would also be needed. This meant that I had to return the following day with the sample which could have been avoided had I been told this when making the appointment.”
We are so sorry to hear that you experienced this inconvenience. Previously, we have had admin staff working on the recall system for things like this. Because they don’t have the clinical insight that a clinician who regularly conducts these reviews would have, we have experienced problems as you have described. To mitigate this we have brought on one of our previous HCA’s into a role called the Recall Care Coordinator. She will be able to utilise her clinical knowledge to ensure that all appointments booked for reviews, blood tests, urine tests etc… are streamlined and accurate so that no one else experiences what you’ve described.
“ I’m sick of arguing with doctors and getting the right help.”
We understand your frustration with not receiving the right help from doctors. However, it is important to trust the medical professionals who have the relevant training and expertise to determine the best course of action for your health concerns.
“Appointment cancelled while waiting to see the doctor.”
“Appointment cancelled after I was waiting 40 minutes due to an emergency”
We apologise for the cancellation of your appointment due to a GP’s illness. Unfortunately, unforeseen circumstances can arise, and our GPs, like all employees, are susceptible to illness. We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused and assure you that we strive to provide the best care possible.
“Dr Morris manner was short and information/reassurance was minimal.”
We apologise for any dissatisfaction with the manner and reassurance provided by Dr Morris. While we understand your concerns, it is worth noting that during the same time period, many other patients provided positive feedback and assessments for Dr Morris.
“Not convinced that I would not have been given the correct injections had I not been aware of it’s importance.”
We apologise but there is a lack of information provided to investigate your concern about the correct injections. If you could provide us with more details, we would be happy to look into the matter further.
“Appointment felt impersonal, hurried and disorganised in marked contract to my usual experiences when visiting the health centre. I do not know who I saw. Neither practitioners introduced themselves.”
We apologise for the impersonal, hurried, and disorganised appointment you experienced, as well as the lack of introduction from the practitioners. We hold our clinicians to high standards and will address this issue in upcoming Practice Meetings and Away Days to ensure that all clinicians introduce themselves to patients.
“Because Doctors don’t listen to what we say. I was advised to never go to this surgery and due to poor notes and NOT noting I’ve always said it’s an injury, I’ve lost £20,000 civil case even though my notes at physios say otherwise. Drs need to listen to detail.”
We apologise for any misunderstanding or miscommunication that may have occurred. When GPs take notes, their primary focus is on the patient’s medical health rather than any potential future litigation. It is unfortunate that the physio’s notes were not considered in your legal case.
“Dr Morris didn’t seem very interested in my problem. I felt fobbed off.”
We apologise for any perception that Dr. Morris was not interested in your problem and that you felt fobbed off. We received numerous positive feedback submissions for Dr. Morris during the same time period.
“The person who called was not well informed about high cholesterol and has not followed up by sending me information.”
We apologise for the lack of information provided about high cholesterol and the failure to send you the promised information. If this occurs in the future, please contact the surgery so that we can rectify the situation and ensure your needs are properly addressed.
Physio didn’t seemed bothered about resolving my problem.”
We apologise for any perception that the physio was not concerned about resolving your problem. While the physio is not employed by us, we have shared your feedback with their manager.
“Nurse wasn’t friendly and was dismissive of my concerns.”
We apologise for any unfriendliness or dismissiveness displayed by the nurse. Your feedback will be shared with the nursing team to raise awareness and improve future interactions.
“My appointment was for 9:50 I waited till 10:15 and had no explanation as to why delay. Very disrespectful given no information. Had to re book for November. I plan my day by time and was behind schedule with their appointments I had in Stretford. Very disappointing.”
We apologise for the delay in your appointment and the lack of explanation provided. We understand that this was disrespectful and caused inconvenience. We will address this issue with the wider team to prevent similar occurrences in the future.
“Felt Dismissed”
We apologise for any feeling of dismissal you experienced. We strive to provide attentive and compassionate care to all our patients. Your feedback will be shared with the wider team to improve our service and ensure a better experience in the future.
“Once again it was just a very short telephone appointment with a faceless doctor who seemed to be in a hurry to get on to the next call on his list.”
We apologise for any perception that the telephone consultation with the GP was rushed. Your feedback will be shared with the wider team to improve future experiences at our surgery.
We appreciate your feedback and assure you that we take it seriously. We are committed to continuously improving our services and addressing any concerns raised by our patients. Thank you for bringing these issues to our attention.
