Exceptional GP practice. MH support concern.
This surgery is exceptional. I always get an appointment, they make an effort to make sure I see my registered GP (and apologise if this isn\'t possible). Wait times are short. staff are VERY lovely, supportive, understanding and want to help. Communication is fantastic via text and email. They have specialists WITHIN THE SURGERY!! Unfortunately, I had an experience which is niggling at me. The GP did a quick medication review and without asking any questions, suggested I look at reducing my MH medication. I have a long term mental health condition that causes significant distress - it\'s only just been manageable with support of medication and private MH therapy. Without asking how I was and what additional support I had, the GP advised that I\'d been on medication a long time and should look at reducing it (MH meds aren\'t nice. If I didn\'t need to be taking them, trust me I wouldn\'t be!). Thankfully I know enough about MH (and have battled for years to get the right care) and am in a stronger position now to be able to challenge their advice. I\'ve recently stopped therapy as I\'m now comfortable with feeling uncomfortable (that\'s as good as it gets I\'m afraid). It\'s well understood that this is a risk period and so medication must continue as standard, with review from a MH professional. It\'s disappointing that the GP didn\'t ask how I was, how therapeutic support was going, how I\'m managing my Mental health - before even suggesting it\'s reduced. Also they advised that it would be gradual, at 50mg a time - this is not gradual!! Reducing MH medication can have a REAL impact on how you feel - leaving you with physical and psychological symptoms. A MH professional would advise 10mg reduction at a time for these meds and this condition. I\'m glad I now know enough to advocate for myself. More MH training for staff please as the advice given was uninformed and potentially dangerous.
Very Caring Staff
I moved to York last year and have had to visit this GP a few times since then and it has been a great experience every time. Either an appointment on the day or a few days later which is normally fine for me. normally see my regular doctor but they open up appointments to other doctors if she is unavailable. Great practice with kind staff.
User friendly
I find the surgery very user-friendly and personal. It's a small practice and long may it continue!
