Have been going to this doctors my whole life! Love the staff they are great but I must praise a nurse called Claire Robbins, she is amazing! My girlfriend had a blood test and Claire made her feel so much better about the whole thing considering my girlfriend is petrified of needles. Well done Claire! You deserve to be praised big time!

Amazing doctors at this surgery ! Especially dr, Rebecca ROBINSON Very kind and caring indeed. I like the same day appointment for urgent cases and a reasonable time of one week appointments for non urgent cases.

L. L.

Very good and nice staff,very helpful, nice talking.Thank you all

Z. Z.

It's not bad. You can make an appointment for children's emergency department, and the GP is easy to talk to. The GP in the previous area was much worse than

I dont remember the doctors name that I seen I wish I did as she was best 1 I have seen in a while as most just wanna rush u in an out as quick as they can no matter what the issue an she didnt rush me out of the appointment she actually sat an listened it's a shame she isn't their permanently as we need more doctors like her, the nurse I seen I must say was fantastic, I hate blood tests an she done good in keeping my mind off it, now bad points the self check in didnt work both times I went, I didnt need to use the self check but was asked to even tho their was no one else ther an I said it didnt work would of been quicker for them to of checked me in themselves than stand messing about with the machine, I dont think you should have to go into as much detail as some receptionist make you just to see a doctor unless their gonna diagnose me Their are a few lovely receptions tho an also a few who need an attitude adjustment

R. S.

Getting appointment is difficult but we can understand due to strikes GPs and other staff are struggling. Thanks for suggesting otomize spray. Relief from ear pain.

J. O.

The receptionist was very helpful upon arrival at the reception desk. And gave me clear instructions as where to sit in the waiting room outside my Doctors door.

m. l.

Surprisingly I have found the telephone consultations very good and efficient. For routine issues I am happy to stay with telephone consultations. I have been phoned back on the same day and at the appointed time with no waiting for days for appointments. The repeat medication system is very efficient as was the online recording of blood pressure. I have been able to get appointments for blood tests very quickly.

k. b.

This was a straight forward no delay appointment, all staff were pleasant, obliging and caring and done within allotted time

D. B.

It's a well kept building. The staff on main desk were polite and considerate. They answered any questions I had. The seating area was clean and tidy. The nurse was wonderful and explained things and showed me how to use the new inhaler. Would definitely recommend the practice to other people.

M. T.

The surgery was clean and the staff members were friendly. The christimass ruffle idea is great!!!

s. b.

Overall a great practice that’s there to help people who need it most . Thank you to all who have helped me through these hard times from the receptionists to nurses and doctors. Your help advice time and patience with me while I’ve. I’ve been I’ll have been greatly appreciated .

J. T.

After a very poor experience with my previous doctor i decided to change surgeries. After my first visit to the Forest Medical Centre i was really impressed with how organised and professional it appeared. My appointment was bang on time which makes such a difference. I genuinely felt confident that the doctor i saw would be able to resolve the ongoing problem i am having with my leg. A scan was agreed during the appointment and also a date for some joint injections to help relieve the pain in the meantime. I was actually called by my christian name on leaving my appointment which makes it feel much more personal, something my previous doctor had never done in almost 21 years. Wish i had changed sooner!!

M. A.

The best GP I've ever had. Good appointment system, great staff, doctors, nurses. Excellent medication management. Couldn't ask for more!

W. P.

We had to wait quite a long time for our appointment, but having said that the lady who administered our jabs was lovely and we didn’t feel a thing.

A. C.

Phoned to see doctor face to face got one for next day with one I wanted Got text in morning they were off but booked different one I accepted very good doctor explained all that I wished to know and I felt much better when I left

X. L.

Easy book appointment and quick response. I believe this is the people expect to NHS. I will request my test output copy later and hopefully it is also easy to have it.

X. V.

Very satisfied with my treatment. I feel much better having face to face with the doctor as i feel i can explain myself a lot better. Thankyou

M. D.

Good doctors and friendly staff. Compared to the previous GP I was at in Wyken this one is absolutely fantastic

J. J.

I have nothing but good experiences with the doctors, I understand that receptionist have to triage you to see whether you need urgently seeing or not so I don't mind being asked some questions first. Also due to my medical history what may seem like a normal illness to others I so panic a little incase its symptom of cancer returning so I like that I am able to speak on the phone about symptoms with a doctor and then seen in person of needed and all tests done to see what is wrong.

T. L.

Didn't have to wait long for an appointment, the nurse was super friendly & efficient.

L. G.

Able to book telephone appointment on line. Call received on time and Doctor was polite and helpful

T. D.

Considering national and local disruption, this practice still gets top marks they genuinely make you feel like a person and not a problem....

L. B.

The docs here are amazing. Very caring people who try to help as much as they can. However not enough staff duet gov cut backs. I would not change and offer a great service.

J. C.

An outstanding practice. The Reception staff are astute and knowledgeable, an essential element of the consultation process. In my experience, the FMC performs significantly above its current CQC rating.

S. A.

I recently attended Forest Medical clinic to see the nurse for a follow up after my recent hip replacement. My appointment was prompt and the nurse was excellent. Very pleased

A. T.

Really good and experienced nurses. Only couple of times when they were short on staff, got people who weren’t that good, otherwise excellent surgery

M. s.

The service I personally receive is 10/10 . Can’t fault them at all at this moment , since the Pandemic restrictions have become less restricted. Thankyou

E. M.

Have always had excellent care from Doctors and all staff. They are always caring and listen to what I have to say.

A. A.

Thanks lot for your help but I’m unhappy about nurse. I was long time for appointment Vitamin Ampoule 5 times called Reception I didn’t have any reply

B. T.

The doctor saw me within a few days of my call, asked great questions with great humour and sent me on my way with a referral to Dr. Nana who soon called and probed my mental health issue and referred me to an expert.

W. L.

I had blood taken by Clare - a HCA who was extremely pleasant and supportive , given my current complexity of health issues.

M. K.

Waited 5 minutes to get to see doctor then in and out within a nother 5 minutes then on my way home my named Dr is Dr v purser thanks. M king

L. S.

Lovely, friendly nurse gave me my flu jab, no messing about and didn’t feel a thing!

F. C.

I really like all the staff at this medical centre, they are all polite and professional. I just had a blood test yesterday and the nurse made me feel so calm as I was nervous before, she was very nice and I didn't feel a thing.

d. c.

Excellent person centred practice, very inclusive with disabilities and flexible to making reasonable adjustments for patients to have a positive consultation.

A. W.

All the health care personnel at Forrest are well mannered, friendly, patience, and helpful.

L. G.

Came for a blood test in August. The HCA was friendly and efficient, didn’t feel a thing 5*

R. M.

Excellent, as always. Been with the same Practice for about 50 years. Appointment date 1 st November 2022.

F. M.

Doctor was the best in every way could not have wished for better

R. W.

I'm very happy with the surgery and can't thank you all for what you all do

K. W.

Flu vaccine given efficiently. Nurse on time and polite in service.

M. X.

This is the best medical centre I have ever been a patient of. 1) I've seen some comments about the reception staff, but from my personal experience, I found that they were amicable and the phones were answered promptly. 2) Also, I needed a medical evidence letter and the receptionist got it sorted out for me ASAP. 3)Additionally, the doctors are great: they really know what they are doing and have kindness and compassion for their patients. It really makes a difference! They even asked me what I would like in terms of treatment, I was FLABBERGASTED and over the moon to be given choices in my own health! 4) I never had to wait more than 10ish minutes to be seen which is awesome compared to other practices. You can really tell they have a great general manager who keeps on top of things. 5) The surgery is clean and modern.

T. C.

I submitted an online request which was dealt with so quickly , really impressed with the service both in person & online.

A. G.

For this particular appointment i was very happy with its progression. What started off as a telephone appointment, made a week prior and using the NHS App, swiftly turned into a face to face surgery appointment within 48 hours. That appointment required further blood tests which got instantly booked and subsequently attended by the end of the week. Thank you...just waiting on results now , hopefully all is ok 🙂👍

J. J.

Easy to book flu jab appointment. Fast efficient service.

A. R.

Easy to access the GP. Amazing Doctors, Nurses, and the rest of the Staff

L. C.

The doctor I saw for my daughter was amazing so friendly and understanding that I have another cheeky little monkey.

D. S.

Seen doctor Even though my appointment was 25 minutes later As there had been an emergency I was really looked after Doctor listened to what my problem and has ordered me some scans to be taken Plus following up my ex-Rays from August last year Plus having some injections done Had phone call later that evening stating that my injections start at the doctors next month Really quick going

L. R.

Trainees not committed to the surgery or patients so things are getting overlooked or missed.

C. C.

Superb practice. They saved my life last year. Most grateful.

C. K.

P. E.

Excellent service, if the line was a little too long, lol

T.

All the reception and back office staff are extremely polite, professional, knowledgeable and helpful. The medical team is top notch. I had my concerns and worries about the partnership initially . I never thought the service provided could be matched or improved upon . How wrong was I

D. C.

Did not wait long to see doctor and he helped me with my problem. Fantastic service

J. F.

Exceptionally brilliant practice I've ever seen. Dr. Husain (hope I typed her name right) and Dr. Reynolds are very nice ladies. They are so helpful that totally exceeded my expectation. Also the reception staffs are so lovely and supporting me. I want to say thank you to all of you!

D. H.

Very friendly staff, both receptionist and Doctors. My first visit and created an excellent first impression

X. S. L.

Very friendly and professional. No long waiting time

W. H.

Very thorough information from the doctor, very welcoming and clear information

t. h.

All of the Drs that I have seen bar one have been very helpful and caring professionals. I would highly recommend this practice. The only negative I would say is having to explain your medical issues to the receptionist before being allowed a telephone appointment.

C.

Sometimes the receptionists aren't too friendly, but being able to get an appointment on a Saturday and having amazing Doctors there makes this 5-star for me! They always take me seriously and listen to what I have to say - important when you're talking about Mental Health.

T. J.

I have found the medical center to be very helpful and fast to sort out any issue that may occur

J. T.

No problems, everything went smoothly from blood test to discussing the results

S. B.

I've been with The Forrest Medical Centre since I was a little girl. The Doctor's are very caring, understanding, friendly and most of all they have time for you. The booking system is brilliant too. The receptionists are really kind and caring too so helpful I wouldn't go anywhere else either. I can't praise the team enough. Thankyou every one 😊

B. L.

The receptionist was frendly, quick and efficient and was able to guide me and my partner where to go with ease. The wating rooms where spotless and fresh and didn't smel like stuffy and overly chep chemicals. More like peches. The nurse that we met was kinde and empathetic and good with young children ,she went above and beyond to help me comfut my daughter whill she was having her ejections. Overall the staff of forest medical went what I feel was above and beyond to provide a kinde, frendly and hassle free experence for my family and I. Thank you forest medical center.

V. I.

The professional care and genuine compassion I received from the doctor and staff at this practice this Summer pulled me through an incredibly difficult period in my life. Thank you Dr. I will be forever grateful.

D. D. &. P.

Give the doctors the time they need to do their job effectively without pressure of timing etc. In the circumstances I give a 100% rating for trying to do the impossible in 10 minutes time slots. Extremely happy with my doctors and the practice and so appreciate them.

E. B.

I really appreciate your help thank you 😊 This review was my 1st review and gave 5 stars but my experience yesterday was unfortunately not so good. Having fractured my ankle (pilon fracture) last month a 5 hr operation almost 3 weeks in hospital plus an accident also in hospital causing a rota cuff injury, I've been discharged with crutches. Struggling as only 1 limb 'arm' not hurting (good leg knee is now swollen from weight baring on crutches) called gp to enquire about a wheel chair, reception told me an appointment was available in 2 weeks and that they actually had wheel chairs there I could use. I asked if possible to have an earlier appointment and was given one for 1 week's time. Hired one from the Red Cross for the week. Spoke with GP (new to this practice) he said he wasn't aware of the practice holding wheelchairs and would call me back. Also asked regarding my medication and was asked 'to get to the point' ! He told me he expects me to be in no pain in a weeks time so can't assess my medication until then. I asked if he knew what sort of fractured I have and the surgeon said the bones have been crushed. Plus rota cuff injuries do not heal in a week. Very surprised as all GP'S from this practice are so patient normally. GP called back and said they don't have wheelchairs...and said I do not qualify...

G. T.

All the staff are friendly the staff are very friendly and helpful

Everything on time, faultless.

K. F.

I’ve been a patient at this practice since 1973 & find it generally excellent. I can usually get an appointment when I need one & always find both support & medical staff very helpful.

C. M.

Brillant service fast and prompt Called to make a appointment which was advised by 111 Called the office told me a doctor would call me in 20mins ,10mins later call came 1 hour later seen in the surgery. I don't know why people moan about Nhs

K. D.

Friendly and helpful staff however wait times for certain doctors can be up to 2 weeks in some cases
