Original Feedback for St Stephen's Gate Medical Practice:

Failure to contact

Missed a nurses appointment due to family emergency - first missed appointment ever. Tried to phone practise but was told 10th in queue - unfortunately from experience this meant a good hours wait on the phone compounded by the most awful music/noise. I then emailed the surgery to explain and asked them to arrange another nurse's appointment. I thought naively it was good practice to ask the surgery to contact me at their convenience and so take pressure off the phone system and others trying to call in a emergency. I did try to phone again but appeared to still be 10th in the queue. The website says that two working days should be allowed for a reply/aknowledgement. This was over a week ago and still no reply. This is the second time the surgery has failed to reply to an email within two working days.
