Reviews about Watton Medical Practice
- ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪Saw a paramedic at 10 am this morning who was very helpful and prescribed something for me. However, since he is not a doctor the duty doctor has to sign off on his prescriptions. I was told I could pick up the prescription at 'lunch time'. However at 3:45 pm pm the prescription still has not been signed off. In the meantime I remain in a lot of pain and would like to start some treatment! The receptionists say it will be 'done today' but have no idea when. There is no option for me to be notified when the prescription is ready so I have to phone up every hour to see if it's been done yet. The service I received this morning deserves a higher rating than 2, but the prolonged wait to actually get some treatment has pulled it right down. I have not bothered writing to the surgery on this occasion as on a couple of previous occasions when I have had other issues they have not deigned to respond. Update: the prescription was eventually ready at 4. The pharmacy informed this was typical and while I waited they turned other people away who also had not had their prescriptions come through yet. If I'd been told at 10 in the morning, 'You can pick your prescription up this evening from 5' and I'd gone in at 5 and there it was, I might have been mildly irritated at the long wait but at least I would have had the correct information. Given that the pharmacy say this is typical, it would be very helpful if the paramedic could be told that it doesn't take 'a couple of hours' to get a scrip signed off but in fact takes a day, and he could then pass this on to the patient. That would have saved me the agro of phoning every hour to see if the script had arrived yet - although it wouldn't have solved the problem of being in pain and unable to access treatment.by Anne HickleyDecember 01, 2017
