Original Feedback for Attleborough Surgery (Queens Square):

Good once you get there

You just cannot get an appointment! NHS England objected to the new houses being built in Attleborough but they were then approved by the Council. There's so many people now that it makes it such a nightmare to get an appointment. They're now got this strange system where they release appointments two weeks in advance. This means some people queue outside the surgery to make sure they can get an appointment. I've tried to book them online and they're all gone in 15 minutes. If you need a same day appointment you're faced with someone on reception asking why you need to see a doctor and I'm not comfortable with this. Are they qualified to make the decision on whether I need to see someone or not? They are aware of the issues because the patient panel have mentioned it but they just keep saying what can we do about it. I don't think it's exclusive to this surgery either - it's a general problem across the county.
