Posted on: 02/02/2024

Due to my medical health, I have had to engage in several services offered by Elmham Surgery in recent months and I could not have received a better service. All members of the skill mix Team at the Surgery from the Reception Administrative Team to the Pharmacy to the Nursing and GP Team have been caring and supportive in their care and attention. I feel incredibly lucky to be registered at such a great Surgery with such a caring and efficient Team. Thank you.

To be able to understand a doctor is very important and it’s very embarrassing to keep asking a doctor to repeat what he has said. So one comes away still having unanswered questions. I must say, however, that the doctor I saw was very patient, kind and helpful

Posted on: 19/01/2024

Nurse was very informative and explained all the test I required. Needed a follow up but no appointments available so will have to try again to book in a weeks time. Need to remember to do this incase appointments book up again? Would be good to have a system within the practice that would have a list of patients to contact once the lists are opened up once more.
Posted on: 19/01/2024

Very efficient time wise and helpful

Brilliant to be able to get a service that in the past I have had to go to a specialised clinic for. Staff were friendly, kind and professional.

The service provided at Elmham surgery is outstanding from the clean and welcoming building to the friendly and professional staff, it cannot be faulted.
Posted on: 30/11/2023

I felt listened to by the doctor and she put me at ease talking about a potentially embarrassing problem.

Posted on: 06/09/2023

Very helpful reception staff, helps with getting myself an appointment to see a Dr. On the same day, Dr has been extremely helpful and thorough with my shoulder injuries, having x rays, ultra sound and now waiting for a visit to the trauma orthopaedic department at the hospital. Just would like a say overall a Fantastic Surgery. Thanks
Posted on: 23/08/2023

I was so impressed by how quickly everyone rallied to help me after mis communication at The Spire Hospital . The NE receptionist organised a blood test within 3 hrs and the nurse was excellent, giving me good advice and being very reassuring. Then a phone call from Dr , who was up and running with what had happened, took control and gently talked me through the situation, reassuring me and suggesting a way forward . What a brilliant Surgery all working together for our good. Thank you to all
Posted on: 12/08/2023

Excellent to be able to get an appointment on the day, without the 3 week wait. Sifting patients' needs via the telephone initially means that if a Nurse Practioner can deal with the query this frees up the doctor's valuable time to see those who need to be seen. Dr gave the impression of caring, and did not rush the appointment.
Posted on: 09/08/2023

Pleasant consultation with a plan to try to solve the problem.
Posted on: 05/08/2023

I can honestly say that I have never met a more professional and thorough doctor in my life. Dr is everything you imagine a doctor to be but never met, until now. Dr actually looked at me whilst I was talking and not fixated on the computer screen as you usually find. She addressed all my concerns. And I know this is selfish but can we keep her please. (I understand she normally works out of Elmham) thank you to all the stall on reception too.
Posted on: 05/08/2023

Efficiency and consultation were both superb and I left feeling very well cared for
Posted on: 05/08/2023

I can not fault Elmham practice. The service impeccable.
Posted on: 02/08/2023

I have monthly blood tests that I really dislike and have a slight needle phobia, but I am put at ease as I walk into the room. I feel more relaxed as soon as I am greeted and the nurse always seem to take my mind off the test with a friendly professional manner.
Posted on: 02/08/2023

I felt the Doctor was very thorough,listened to what I had to say and was very knowledgeable. She asked me several questions and explained everything. I left feeling very happy and confident in what I had been given.
Posted on: 27/07/2023

Excelent service thorough freindly professional
Posted on: 20/07/2023

I have never had a problem arranging appointments and feel i have been listened to regarding the reason for my recent visits.

The surgery's very good and i had a potential series health issue which was dealt with very swiftly and professionally. Thank you
Posted on: 17/07/2023

Polite friendly and all round amazing doctor
Posted on: 21/06/2023

I got through quite quickly to make my appointment and was offered one that morning. I had a short wait at the surgery before seeing the doctor, but once in the room the doctor had already reviewed my records and allowed me enough time to detail my reason for attending. A plan of action was agreed and a prescription issued, with follow up by the asthma nurses in a couple of weeks. Very pleased with my experience.
Posted on: 21/06/2023

Excellent service but would like to be seen earlier of course
Posted on: 21/06/2023
