Complaints

We operate a complaints procedure as part of the NHS system for dealing with complaints. Our complaints procedure meets national criteria. Complaints should be addressed to Mrs Julie Stokes, Practice Manager. She will contact you and discuss your complaint. You may be offered an appointment to discuss your problem in more detail. All complaints are documented and you will be advised in writing of the outcome of the complaint. Further information is available in our practice complaints leaflet, which is available on request.

She can provide advice and support, helping you to sort out any concerns you may have about the care we provide, guiding you through the different services available from the NHS.
