Comments and Complaints
We welcome all comments on the services provided by the Practice.
We are continually looking to turn out patients’ feedback into real improvements in the services we provide. We use it to focus on the things that matter most to our patients, carers and their families.
We would like to hear from you if you have a suggestion on how we can do things better to improve our patients’ experiences. We’d also like to hear from you if you are pleased with the service you’ve received.
We’ll let the staff involved know and share the good practice across our teams.
You may write to us or contact us by letter or via our website.
Our details can be found on our Contact Us page.
While we try to provide a good, friendly and efficient service we realise that occasionally things do not always go as smoothly as we would like.
We are also interested to know of any thoughts and ideas you may have on what you find works well or things that could improve the service we offer.
