Original Feedback for St James Medical Practice:

Almost impossible to contact the practice

I tried to make an appointment through the website only to be told that due to the high number of on-line requests, they couldn't deal with me. After tracking down the phone number I had a 20 minute wait to get through to a member of staff. In fairness the receptionist was able to answer my query but the whole process of getting to speak to someone or make an appointment, let alone actually get to see or speak to a doctor is woeful. There are more options to communicate today than there were 30 years ago yet the process is immeasurably more complicated, inefficient and demoralising. At a time when a person needs assistance, the very system which should provide it is letting the patient down. My problem was not a major issue thank goodness, I dread the day should I need help with something serious.
