Drop in medical centre including a dentist and pharmacy. My partner broke a tooth and the sharp edges caused an ulcer. We this had over 2 weeks of our holiday left so we had to get fixed. They treated her within 2 hours of our arrival and were most helpful.
Most of the receptionists are rude, money comes before their patients ! Was in there wiith my son one day and the receptionist turned away a lady with a new born baby who was very sick because they were capacity… when they actually weren’t they had one person in there, they also talked to each other about the lady when she left! I could hear them ranting and raving!!!!
I’ve been coming to The Palms Medical Centre for over 9 years. I’m not complaining about the doctors—they do their job well. But one of the receptionists, who has been there for a long time, is often rude and unprofessional. She should know how to treat patients with respect and not judge people or their situations in a sarcastic way. That’s the doctor’s role, not the receptionist’s. I’m really disappointed with how I was treated.
I am writing to raise a serious concern about the conduct of a new receptionist at your office. She is the youngest member of the reception team and has only been there for the past few months. I have been a patient at your practice for over 15 years, and in all that time, I have never experienced such rudeness. Every time I have interacted with her, whether by phone or in person, she has been abrupt and unkind. Most recently, when I was calmly explaining a problem about my medication situation, she interrupted me, dismissed my concerns, and then hung up when I respectfully pointed out she was being once again rude. I want to stress that as a long-term patient, I have consistently trusted and valued your care. It is unacceptable that a new staff member, who clearly does not understand how long I have been a patient, would treat me this way. I ask that you address this behavior immediately, as I expect nothing less than professional and respectful service to your patients.
The doctors seem to prioritize prescribing medication over addressing underlying issues.nI lodged a complaint but the response was simply an email reiterating my own statements.
