Complaints Procedure

 

BACK TO MAIN INDEX

 

We welcome all patient feedback, especially where patients have suggestions or ideas for improvements. 

Of course, whilst we make every effort to give the best service possible to everyone who attends our Practice we acknowledge that things can go wrong resulting in a patient feeling that they have a genuine cause for complaint. If this is so, we would wish for the matter to be settled as quickly, and as amicably as possible. 

In the first instance please discuss your complaint with the staff member concerned.  Where the issue cannot be resolved at this stage, please contact us and we will try to resolve the issue for you and offer you further advice on our complaints procedure.  

For further advice please take one of our 'Complaints & Comments Leaflet' from the Reception desk.
