Friends and Family Test Responses

What Patients Are Saying

The government have asked that all GP practices have a survey available to patients asking how likely it would be that they recommend Dr. Vasanth's Surgery to their friends and family, and if they would like to comment on their experience of the practice.  Thank you to all who took part!  The responses are recorded below.

Overall: January 2024 98% positive and February 2024 93% positive.

These have been discussed and fed back to the patient participation group

Waited 3 weeks for the appointment and have been stressed about it over Christmas/ New Year


I can't see the doctor when I need to and have to email rather than be seen in person which isn't great. I also feel like I don't get any proactive check ins regarding my asthma and have to ask for these myself
