Patient feedback

Question:

I completed the Anima form in the morning & had a dr appointment in the afternoon. I was very grateful to see a doctor who was thorough, knowledgeable & kind. I was diagnosed in & prescribed antibiotics. My experience has been extremely positive & efficient service. Thank you.

The system online was fast and efficient and I received a call the same day offering me an appointment. I met with Dr Milne and she was sympathetic and determined to get my eczema under control taking the time to listen, document (including photos) and prescribe a treatment plan to get on top of it. She was extremely professional and very friendly.

Doctors are always patient and listen, never feel rushed, the reception team are kind and helpful. I personally feel grateful that I’m with the Burdwood Surgery.

Appointment on time. A little confusion my booking and given great advice to get in touch with a GP for other concerns. Anima has been a huge help in regards to getting an urgent appointment. Seems like no other surgery uses this option but since the change to anima I have been very happy with the outcome and quick response.

I have always found Burdwood practice to be an extremely friendly and welcoming practice from the receptionists through to the clinicians. The new Anima system does seem to work very effectively as I had a phone call from a doctor within a couple of hours of my request. A fantastic practice!

I submitted a request via Anima, expressing concern regarding a skin lesion. I was offered a GP appointment within 24 hours, which I subsequently attended. The outcome put my mind at rest. Very happy with the service provided by the surgery.

Anima is very easy to use and the surgery are always quick to respond. I feel lucky to be seen by the same Doctor every time as this hasn’t always been possible at previous surgeries I’ve been with. Diane who does my regular blood tests is also fabulous and always puts me at ease. Thank you!

I have seen a few different Dr's over the last few month's and they have all been very helpful and attentive to my many issues. I make appointments through Anima and it works well for me, they are very fast at replying to your request. All the staff are very professional and lovely at the same time. Shout out too Lesley, Diane, Sue, Craig. Thank you for your dedication and care appreciate it Burdwood.

Appointment made through the Anima system and was available next day. The appointment was on time and a simple quick consultation solved the issue. Excellent surgery an even for a 75 year old Anima is not difficult to use. Well done Burdwoo

I used the Anima system which seems to be working well. I received a speedy response and some different dates to book an appointment. I saw Craig, the practice paramedic who was excellent and very thorough.

Nice and quick to get an appointment. Simple form. Invite to appointment. Self check in at the surgery. Reception helpful. Doctor only running 15 mins late towards the very end of the day. Sent with a prescription and good advice.

Used NHS app and through Anima gave symptoms and pictures which got me an appointment with doctor at my surgery and by the end of the day had prescription and treatment advice. Couldn't fault system and service.

Good reception response, Anima was easy to use, speedy doctors appointment and thorough appointment
Posted on: 14/05/2024

Could not have asked for anything more. Reception staff were so helpful, cheery and informative, all information was clear and relevant. Appointment booking was super easy through the app and Craig is also, a credit to the team. Put at ease, thorough, explained all options and plans to ensure I knew that I was being listened to and cared for. Such lovely staff and it really made things so much easier. Thank you.

The doctor i saw was more or less on time despite my appointment being at the end of the day. I am a new patient and came in for a medication review, the doctor asked me relevant questions and really listened to what i was saying. He offered me some great suggestions of things that he thought might be helpful to me outside of medication, which i appreciated. At the end he clearly summed up what we had discussed and the way forward. I have been so impressed by the Burdwood Surgery, a wonderful efficient service and lovely staff. Thankyou.

Quick response from my original message and didn’t wait long for an appointment I actually think the new service is an amazing idea especially for people like me who work full time and long days this really helps for quick needs
Posted on: 19/03/2024

My form through anima was reviewed really quickly, I was seen by the duty doctor the same afternoon (she was very helpful and lovely!) and prescribed the medication I needed to feel better. All my previous experiences with Burdwood have been amazing. When I've submitted requests for my baby, they have been address really quickly within an hour or less of being submitted and he was also seen the same day on two occasions. Very efficient in my opinion! Thank you Burdwood for all your hard work.

The online Anima form worked well, had a response within 30mins and was able to see a Dr the same day… thank you

When I told the receptionist that I would like to wait outside away from other patients - because of my anxiety - she didn’t question it, but arranged for the mental health nurse to come and meet me there. The appointment with the MH nurse was longer than a standard GP appointment and so I had time to discuss my issues and to get some helpful advice back. I was treated with respect and dignity by everyone at the surgery, making a difficult situation - because of my anxiety- much easier. Thank you

Urgently triaged sensitively and booked in for tests the next day and follow up GP appointment. The service the surgery provides in an urgent care situation has been incredibly well streamlined and efficient with high standard of patient care.

Dr Colbourne was punctual. She listened and explained her answers to my questions. Talked through options with me and didn’t make me feel like I was wasting her time. I would definitely request to see her again.
Posted on: 18/07/2023

Everything was amazing and every member of staff went out of their way to help and be really understanding and kind . This practice should be set out as an example to other surgeries for its patient care and wonderful service! Burdwood gets 10 out of 10 from me!

My son is on pathway for asd diagnosis and I had booked him in for his nasal flu spray. The receptionist was so accommodating when I say he may need a longer appointment due to his needs and this was no problem. The nurse (sorry I didn’t catch your name) was simply amazing with him. So friendly and welcoming. She managed to get the spray done within minutes without any fuss from my son. I’d was honestly a very pleasant experience and he he walked out saying “amazing mummy”. Well done Burdwood staff!
