"See a different person every time"

Every time I get an appointment I see a different person. They are good at talking and planning and saying what we can do and how they can help and where they can refer me to but nothing ever gets done. It is very frustrating.

"Just tell you to go to the pharmacy"

I have been waiting two weeks. I think the reception lady has a problem. They just tell you to go to the pharmacy or walk in every time no matter what the issue. I begged for an appointment and they gave me one during school run time. They did bloods and I had low iron.

"Can't get the help I need"

It's hard to get an appointment and when I do I don't get to see the correct GP. I'm in the queue for ages when I call them. I end up seeing an ANP then they sent me to see a pharmacist about an hernia. In the end I was referred to UHB but haven't heard anything in two years. My life is affected and all they say is I'm on a waiting list.

"Great practice"

I wanted to share how great Pearl medical centre is! So today I was with a friend who had to wait an hour on the phone to talk to her surgery. However Pearl always answers within minutes! So I had to take some time out to appreciate them!

The doctors and staff are also really nice and helpful. They go out of their way for you, which my friend doesn't get at her surgery. She said her doctors don't pay attention to her and tell her to go private.

I definitely recommend them! Seeing how hard the staff works to manage the needs of a deprived area is truly inspiring. Outstanding service!

"Outstanding experience"

I can’t praise this GP practice enough! They have been absolutely outstanding, always on top of their care. From booking medication reviews to issuing meds on time (even when I forget to order)They're always quick to follow up on blood results etc!

The receptionists are amazing. They always go the extra mile to help! The nurses here are fantastic! Have had the best experience with flu vaccines and child immunisations!

A special shout-out to one of the GPs! They have been the best with my grandma's diabetes management. This practice truly cares about their patients, and it shows in every interaction. Highly recommend! The best GP practice!

"Doctors are good when I see them"

It can be really hard to get an appointment but when I do get one the doctors are good. I go on my own now that I am 16, and I feel like the doctors treat me well, like an adult and really listen to my concerns and queries.

"Very frustrating getting appointments"

The staff are okay but I find it difficult to get appointments and feel like I'm going round in circles. If I ring just after 8am, I am told that all of the slots are booked and I have to ring back at 11am. When I ring back the slots are fully booked again. It's very frustrating. When you do get to see the doctors they are very good at least.

"They need to improve waiting times"

They're good but they can improve their waiting times for both getting appointments and when you're in there waiting to see them as you can wait a while. Then appointments feel rushed because they're running behind.

"Friendly midwife but delays updating records"

I see a midwife here and they're very friendly. The issue is that they haven't been updating my medical records properly. I had some tests done a while ago and all of these are blank on my records. I was told I am anaemic in January but they still haven't uploaded the results.

"Taken more seriously when I'm with my mom"

I asked the GP to check my eye but he just gave me cream and didn't look at it. I was in there 2 minutes. I spent longer with the receptionist keeping me for 10 minutes as I had to get evidence for college but she didn't believe me. I feel like I am taken more seriously when I go there with my mom.

"Can't get appointments"

I can never get an appointment. I have not seen my GP in ages.

Provider Response December 13, 2024

The national average is 4 appointments a year, our patients have an average of 10 appointments a year, it is very rare to find someone whom does not get appointments as that is the primary reason our surgery is popular. Phone and speak to me during office hours.

"They don't listen to their patients."

The doctors do not listen to their patients and my husband's medical condition got worse as a result. They refused to respond on time and it affected his health for the rest of his life. (high blood pressure).

"They tell you to call 111."

They only have two doctors and they always tell you to call 111. They are not answering calls which leads to a very bad experience and I had to change my GP.

"Hard to make appointments whilst working"

I phone at 8am, they don't have appointments so phone again. The advanced appointments were easier, they used to offer that a long time ago. I ask for a call back from a prescriber. Trying to make an appointment whilst working is impossible.

"Disrespectful"

Dr Hussain is a disrespectful and ignorant individual. He made himself unavailable to take a 5 minute call to discuss a patients end of life care, and then upon death went out of his way to make the process more difficult, lengthier and disrespectful. He has a rude attitude, the typical south east asian Dr complex, of feeling superior to others, rudely making comments like I’m the Dr and not you! When he has been guilty of negligence and misconduct on many occasions, but due to the type of patients has got away with the same. What a Shameful individual at a worthless practise, the ratings and reviews here reflect the same. Its high time people began to pursue him for his negligence and poor quality care.

"Broke the Law"

They have encouraged to Adulterate medicine that was anti-psychotic. they knew I was qualified to sue them in court. They also were aware of the CQC report that proved the doctor and nurse at the hospital were covering their backs; and mis-diagnosed me. They failed to comply with duty of care.

"Doctor lacked understanding"

Do not go here if you suffer from mental illness. Doctors here very outdated in their beliefs. Mental illness is dismissed and not accepted as being real. Doctor here believes that people with mental illness "should just pull their socks up". Shown complete lack of understanding and concern. Wasn't even asked what was making me feel so ill. Felt like doctor just wanted me out the door. Has made me so down and triggered my depression.

"Best GP Surgery"

I have been with the surgery for over 13 years now and I extremely like the services and staff friendless atmosphere. The surgery has online appointment booking system which made our lives so easy as we don’t need to call the surgery no more and we can book online. My mother is also a patient in the surgery and she always been looked after very good each time when she has her appointment. The dr’s always put hard work to keep patients happy.

"Poor communication"

I have twin daughters who are 16 month old and GP has not provided care with club foot.
Finally at one year old he finally referred her to children's hospital. The hospital said 6 months GP scans should have been done as breach, Twins and female.
Poor communicated by GP.
GPs need to be trained better in communication. They seem to think they are better than you. There is one GP that is brilliant though.
You can never get appointment there but they keep taking on the NHS patients.
