I joined this surgery in 2020 and have never managed to see a GP. The recption staff try their best as does one overworked paramedic who is the only professional I have ever seen who has knowledge and empathy. I dont know where the GPs are but it is terrifying when you feel very unwell to hit a brick wall and only get a eConsult invitation to apply on line for an appointment somewhere in the future? This is the worst GP practice I have ever encountered yet if you live in Pembury you have no option but join it. the practice manager should be ashamed. The partime 2 GPs who work from home on the telephone predominently should be professionaly ashamed. I have never been spoken to with caring empathy except by the paramedic who stands in for the GPs. |

When my doctor retired I saw a new GP at the surgery, as was trying to taper off sleeping pills had been on for 12 years, fearing they would just stop them. Nice recommends a long taper off, or switching to a benzo as easier to come off. Very unsympathetic, I explained was struggling bit, was refused any more medication, told would have no problems just stopping , to take anti depressants if couldn’t sleep. Predictably withdrawal symptoms been horrendous nearly 4 years later anxiety still bad, no help from surgery, or even taken responsibility for what was clearly a breach of the NHS guidelines. I was advised by helpline was lucky I didn’t have a seizure after being stopped so abruptly. |

Impossible to get an actual appointment to see a GP. Led in circles around websites, Patient Access, NHS Account etc but never able to actually try to book the appointment. The system is broken. No wonder people simply go to the A&E department at the hospital down the road- this Surgery is a joke. |
