I requested repeat medication last thursday. I went to collect on Monday and was told it would be ready later that day. I couldn't return that day so I went today to be told it hasn't been signed by the doctor!! I have totally run out of meds and as I ordered them 6 days ago I'm disgusted.

Thank you for your feedback. Without knowing the details it is impossible to comment on your experience but we would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused. As you may be aware, there was a significant computer problem on Monday across St Helens which affected all GP surgeries and local hospitals; this has created a huge backlog of work and, even with the extra staffing we have put in place, this caused significant disruption and delays to local NHS providers. Many thanks for your comments.

This practise is the worst in Merseyside, I ordered a prescription on the day of an appointment and was told it would be ready within 3 days. I came back in 5 days and was told there was a back log and I would need to return, I returned a week later at this point my medication had run out and I was told no prescription request had been made. I spoke to a woman on reception who was less then helpful. I was told I can’t have my medication without prior seeing a dr which now means I have to take time out of work and attend an appointment next week to try and get my medication. I know have to go a week without my medication and living in total agony because of the negligence of the staff. I have told the receptionist I really struggle without my medication but she wasn’t bothered, she told me to drive faster in order to make my appointment, is that a sick joke? As she could clearly see on my details that I have been involved in a car accident. Would never recommend this practise.

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that you are unhappy with our service. We are trying our very best with the ever-decreasing resources we have available and are also several staff members down; having had multiple resignations due, in part, to increasing and unreasonable demands and complaints from patients. We are currently recruiting. Without knowing more details, it is impossible to comment further, however, I will say that the doctor will have good reasons why they wish to see you before issuing medications. As you will be aware, all medicines are poisons and require due care and attention before being prescribed or continued. Once again, thank you for your feedback.

It is impossible to get through and make an appointment. The staff on the telephone are rude and unhelpful. Worst doctors in the area.

Thank you for your feedback. As you may be aware, we have some technical issues with our telephones which remain unresolved; we are not alone in these issues as all GP surgeries and Hospitals in St Helens are part of the same telephone network. We are striving to solve this. We have lost several staff members over recent weeks and are currently recruiting replacements. With regard to rude staff on the telephone, if you were to pass on details of your call, we should be able to listen to the recording. We can then address any issues of staff training required. Many thanks for your feedback.
