Poor experience. Joined in 2023 as only surgery accepting new patients when Ioved to Abingdon. I…read morehave a shoulder injury and could have a telephone appointment which obviously was pointless. Diagnosed shoulder injury over phone gave exercises. Pain increased, finally got an in person appointment and was checked by GP and medical student. Just a vague shoulder injury diagnosis. Send text to refer for telephone physio. Pain increased to a unbearable level 4 weeks later, booked phone appointment waited all day got called at 6pm. Basically told injuries take tim e and to try paracetamol (obviously already tried several options already) After getting upset gp decided to refer me to physio. After this call same dr text me to tell me to continue to treat my conjunctivitis. This was clearly not meant for me even though it had my name on. Saw physio today, muscle injury actually quite serious and could have been treated sooner if referal was made at first appointment. Also exercises GP gave were completely unsuitable for the injury I actually have. I now have a long recovery for an injury I've had 11 weeks, which could have been treated sooner if GP actually made a referal rather than fob me off with an exercise leaflet not suitable. I have now registered at Abingdon surgery that appear to be much more competent. AVOID!!!

I truly cannot express how much I loathe this practice--solely based on the reception, pharmacy and…read moreadmin teams. I've been with the practice for 15 years and while the doctors are generally good (and the midwives based there are amazing!), the admin team, including the manager, seem hellbent on making patient lives as difficult as possible. I've had repeated problems with prescription requests for required daily medication that has reached comic proportions now. Current example: At four months pregnant, the practice could not supply a required daily medication that I take due to having had cancer as a young person. Rather than let me know that they had supply issues, I had to come into the practice a week later to discover this... and all other local pharmacies were having the same supply issues. It happened to coincide with the Queen's funeral weekend and in the end, I was without my medication for six days and feeling wretched and worried as a result. 111 doctors insisted that I ask for a three-month prescription of this medication in the future given that I have now had supply issues with this medication four times since Brexit. Marcham Road refuses to prescribe more than one month at a time despite this ongoing supply debacle and request of 111 doctors because it is 'their policy'. Funny enough, without me saying anything, a trainee midwife in Wantage asked where my GP practice was based and when I said 'Marcham Road', she literally shuttered and said, 'Ooh. They really aren't the nicest there, are they'? I laughed and told her that she made me feel so much better because it meant that it wasn't just me (which is obvious based on all the other reviews here anyway). Adding insult to injury, making an appointment here is often difficult and I just cannot understand how this practice even remotely functions. As my regular GP has retired, despite being in the middle of a pregnancy, I am now trying to switch practices as I can no longer stand the negativity and frequent problem-making attitude of the administration, pharmacy and reception teams (with the exception of Anita, who is truly lovely). There is just a constant dark cloud over this practice and I dread every time I have to interact with them. Shame--deep shame--on this practice. Truly.

If you're in need of medical attention then Long Furlong Medical Centre is a nice place to be. It's…read morea purpose built building, with plenty of space in the waiting room, and the staff are efficient and helpful. They have open surgeries in the mornings - so if you're ill and don't have an appointment then you can just drop in. How long you have to wait will depend on how busy they are, but you will be able to see a doctor. Appointments are made for afternoon surgeries and visits to the nurse, and I've never had any problems getting an appointment - they don't make you wait for weeks. I have seen several of the doctors and nurses and they are all very professional, friendly and efficient. The surgery itself is always clean and pleasant. The Medical Centre has its own car park, and there are usually spaces available - but at busy times the car park can be full and local residents get very grumpy about cars parked in the street. However, there is a community car park about 2 mins walk away with plenty of space, so parking is never an issue.

I have been coming to this doctors surgery for quite a few years, and I think it is really good,…read moreespecially compared to other doctor's surgeries I have been to. The reception staff and secretaries are really helpful and friendly, and never make me feel like I am a nuisance. Nothing is too much trouble for them. The building is quite new and modern, and there are plenty of seats in the waiting room. The toilets are always clean and well stocked with toilet roll etc. Sometimes the doctors and nurses run a bit late with appointments etc but this is to be expected in a doctor's surgery! Repeat prescriptions seem to be done quickly and efficiently, and it is usally quite easy to get an appointment when I need one. At the moment there is an open surgery in the morning, but I understand that is to change in a few months, so I will watch with interest how easy it is to get an appointment once this happens! Overall, a good surgery.

I have been a patient at Milton Keynes Village Practice (MKVP) for over 20 years and I have been…read morehappy at that practice for over 20 years. I have seen the practice grown from two Portakabins into a modern, thriving practice with all the mod cons. Dr Moore needs a team of skilled practitioners, caring and professional nurses and without a doubt some of the most helpful, friendly and always professional receptionists in the business. At times it can be difficult to get an appointment but it is the NHS and they have more patience than they do money so sometimes a bit of patience goes a long way and remember the receptionists are just the messengers so there is no point in shouting at them and getting angry. All the patients are in the same part and we are all treated equally if someone has a more urgent and desperate case then they should of course be seen before somebody else or just has a rash or a cold. If you are lucky enough to become registered as a patient at Milton Keynes Village Practice (MKVP) thank your lucky stars because it has Frequently been rated as one of the top doctors practice in Milton Keynes, if not the top practice and I am very very appreciative and thankful of the service that they provide.

If you can get registered here then you won't regret it. The reception staff will always give you a…read morewarm welcome and there is a self-check in facility should the queues be long. The waiting room is spacious with a play area for young children. When it is time for you to be seen the doctors come out into the waiting room to call you, which adds a nice personal touch. With only one exception I've found all the doctors I've had dealings with to be very approachable. My only issue would be that mad scrum on the phone lines for an emergency appointment at 8.30am.

After seeing the NHS several times, I still did not get a diagnosis why I am unwell: constant…read morebloody nose, dizziness, sleepiness and itchy feet and palms. I have been recommended to Harley Street Health Centre by one of my colleagues. So I booked an appointment with Dr Abood. The consult lasted an hour, and included a chat about my symptoms, when they occur, ear & nose check, blood pressure and also had blood taken. Personally, even though I am in my mid 30's,I am really scarred of the needle, but the nurse was amazing. She distracted me by keeping my mind busy chatting, while she was drawing blood. Offered me water & advised to wait for couple of minutes before I leave. The whole experience was 5*. No rushing or looking at you like you are crazy because your palms & sole is itching at night, weirdly enough. So the next day I got my results. It was not as bad as I thought. Iron & Vitamin D deficiency. Something that can be fixed easily. So glad I went to the clinic, as my nose bleeds and itchyness have been haunting me for years. I am now taking my supplements & feeling much better. Will have another blood test done probably in 3-4 months.

Not often you find the perfect doctor who understands you and treat you like a friend rather than a…read moretest subject. I was lucky to find this lovely clinic in Harley Street which did exactly that and I've been visiting this place for the last 3 years. Would suggest it to anyone in and around the square mile.
