"I cannot fault the care and attention I received from my GP"

About: General practices in Lanarkshire

(as a service user),

After half an hour waiting in a telephone call queue system I got through to a friendly receptionist who gave me an appointment with GP that morning.

I was seen by Dr Abbas who listened to my concerns/problem, examined me and then made a call to on call surgical team in Hairmyers Hospital. 

Dr Abbas’s professional care and attention resulted in me being seen quickly and ensured I was seen quickly without having to spend long hours in A&E. 

I cannot fault the care and attention I received from my GP practice and is very grateful to them on this occasion.

Dear Alibob,

Thank you for sharing your experience of your GP.

I am so pleased to hear that Dr Abbas gave you excellent care and efficient service which also allowed you to to get help quickly at University Hospital Hairmyres. This would make such a difference in reassuring you.

GP’s are independent contractors and are responsible for responding to any feedback a person may have about the service; they are not registered to respond directly to feedback through Care Opinion. Can I please invite you to contact the Practice Manager who would be happy to share your kind words with Dr Abbas.

I hope you are recovering well.

Kind Regards,

Jenni
