** JUNE PATIENT FEEDBACK**
A HUGE thank you to everyone who shared feedback after your appointment with our GPs and nurses in June 💬
We’re really pleased to say that, again, 97% of patients rated their experience as good or Very Good 🙌
We look closely at all feedback that we receive. A small number of responses ( 2 out of 87 ) told us where things didn’t go as well as they should. While some issues are outside our control, there are definitely areas we can learn from — and we’re already working on them.
Your feedback helps us keep improving, so thank you for taking the time to share your experience 💙
