    absolutely appalling receptionists at this practice. Rude, unhelpful and hung up the phone on both my husband and I after we were requested to ring back if condition did not improve after a week.

    This is my second review which I feel the need to write. I was called by the practice to review one of the conditions I am suffering from. Prior to this appointment I had been advised by more than one specialist that I need to undergo a number of tests but after months no appointments have arisen. The doctor I saw this morning (4.6.19) was absolutely brilliant in every way. I left the surgery feeling grateful that someone had taken the time to help me for which I am very grateful,

    Thank you very much for taking the time to comment on the service we provide at this surgery. In a time where General Practice is portrayed as not being able to manage patient expectations it is truly reassuring to read that you have received a helpful and professional service from us. Thank you once again for your kind comments. Peter Tyrrell Practice Manager

    I have been going to this surgery for many years, the doctors are really good and caring. Unfortunately, I find it impossible to get an appointment. It's always phone after 8 am or phone after 2pm. However when you phone you can't get through. So on many occasions I just give up and suffer. It's a shame the system just does not work. I was their recently when a receptionist was verbally abused by a lady who was asked to pay £30 for a signed letter from the Doctor. In which the doctor did not advise her in advance and insisted on cash. I was really shocked at the Patience's behavior to those poor receptionists doing their job. I understand that £30 is a lot of money for us and I believe it is very wrong to charge that amount of money... I believe it should be a fair if they have to charge a standard £10 max as their are people who are not working and people who have to go on and pay for medication as well. The following week I was in the same situation and had to pay £30 and was not advised of the charge in advance but paid in silence. However, I do believe it is very steep for a signed letter but people should not take it out on the receptionists, they are only doing their jobs. Nevertheless, the receptionists and doctors are excellent !

    Thank you for your comments. I am sorry that you have found it difficult to get an appointment but over the past few years due to a national shortage of doctors going into General Practice we have had difficulty in recruiting doctors to replace the partners who have left. We have however since January this year been very fortunate to have been able to recruit two very experienced salaried GP’s and with Dr Abbott returning in February from maternity leave there will be more appointments available to book with a doctor. This will hopefully take the pressure off of patients having to phone the surgery at 8am or 2pm to request an appointment as both of these times are peak periods when it can take more than 10 minutes for the call to be answered despite having every available member of staff on the phones taking calls. The rates we charge for non-NHS work are in line with those that are recommended by the BMA and further information regarding non-NHS work including the rates we charge can be found on the practice website. http://www.gps-billericayhealthcentre.co.uk/clinics-and-services.aspx?t=3 With regards to your comment about the staff being verbally abused, this is something that we take very seriously. The practice has a zero tolerance policy and any patient who verbally abuses any member of staff will be written to and if deemed serious enough will be removed from the practice list. Finally I would like to thank you again for your comments and for your praise for the receptionists and doctors. With best wishes Peter Tyrrell Practice Manager
