Healthcare access in Bolton

“I can't thank the staff enough at Vet Care Bolton. Our little dog has had various health issues since we got her but recently she has been having a really difficult period of ill health. The vets are kind and compassionate and as a pet owner I feel listened to. Nothing is too much work and they give brilliant advice. The nurses are wonderful as is Rosanne the brilliant Client Care Manager. What has been a really stressful time recently has been made much easier for us as a family as a result of the care provided by the staff at Vet Care. A positive review really doesn't cover how much I would recommend the practice.”

Nothing is too much trouble and they often point me in the right direction for more support as my husband is seriously ill. This is the best pharmacy by far and they really care about the commununity. Give them a try and you won't be disappointed.”

“I cannot agree with anyone who says this doctor is not one of the best doctors I have come across. In fact all the doctors at this practice are brilliant. I have never had any trouble getting an appointment unless they have problems .ie a doctor is ill or something.if I have an illness it's always been looked into and I have also been referred to a professional in that field if the doctor feels it needs further investigation. So if you want a doctors surgery who listens and cares ?this is the one to be at.the reception staff are always nice too.”

“This was my first time having counselling, and I can't recommend highly enough the non judgemental therapy Sharon provides. I was very nervous and hesitant about asking for help. Sharon made me feel at ease from the moment I contacted her. She supported me, listened, and showed great empathy. A counsellor and a wonderful person, thank you.”

The staff are kind caring understanding and most of all they are not judgemental about you your illness your medications and why you take them medication or need them.

“I feel the need to write this review due to the many unnecessary unfair reviews. I am writing this review to provide feedback on the experiences of my wife, who is a patient at Dr. Subramanian's practice. My wife has been a patient of Dr. Subramanian for many many years, and we wish to convey that she finds him to be an excellent and highly valued doctor. She is more than extremely satisfied with the care she receives and would not consider changing practices. Regarding her access to appointments, my wife has always been able to get an appointment when needed and has never encountered any difficulty in being seen. This is in stark contrast to my own doctors at the same health centre, where it can be impossible to get an appointment unless you book three weeks in advance. Despite the option to call at 8 am for a same-day appointment, I have found it nearly impossible to get through to the practice, which often just gives an out-of-service tone. This brings me to a common complaint I hear from people about potential delays to appointment times. I have observed that Dr. Subramanian often makes a significant effort to accommodate patients who present with urgent issues on the day. Furthermore, I have noticed that delays can also occur when patients require a double appointment but only book a standard one, or they present with multiple issues they need addressing. From what I can see, the doctor is very thorough and compassionate in addressing all of their concerns, which can sometimes extend beyond the scheduled time. While this might occasionally lead to waiting longer for a pre-booked appointment, I believe this reflects a true commitment to ensuring those with immediate needs are seen, and that everyone gets the time they need. This responsiveness for urgent matters is something I value greatly, as it is not always my understanding of how easy it is to access care at other practices. Overall, my wife and I are very happy with the care and accessibility provided by Dr. Subramanian. He is a credit to his profession.”

“Receptionist staff at Hudson are always lovely and accommodating. Met with Alan and Bonnie frequently, they’re always so friendly, welcoming and helpful.”

“Staff are so friendly and helpful. Prescriptions are always ready and never had issues getting them. Medication is almost always able to collected the same day my prescription is sent over. Absolutely amazing.”
