“Had a chest x-ray booked recently and it was an incredibly smooth process. Parking for an hour is free and I managed to park at 9:45-10am easy enough. Receptionist was friendly and directed me to the waiting area. I was in x-ray 5 minutes earlier than my appointment time which was a nice surprise and the lady operating x-ray was friendly enough. All done and dusted in the space of 20 mins from parking to leaving. No complaints here”

“I personally hate to visit the Doctor. I was at Weston Favell Surgery for years. Without going into detail.. The difference between the two woodview Medical centre and Weston Favell surgery is day & night. At woodview everyone gets an appointment. And is treated with respect. It's extremely clean, has a car park behind. None of the Doctors are rude. Infact the very opposite. Never in my life have I experienced such prompt action to deal with a medical issue. When previously just sorry call back tomorrow. I have several occasions that stick in my mind. Where I was left without blood pressure tablets in Weston Favell. Wife found me collapsed in the kitchen. Only for our fantastic Abundance Service I am still here. Another, my wife caught me early. Weston Favell Surgery refused to give appointment. Told call tomorrow. A&E was packed.. So the only place who would take me was a drop in centre in Corby. I ended up in a bed there for around 6 hours given medication. After that when I decided to go abroad. But registering at a different Surgery. I never thought this Woodview Medical centre wouldn't operate any different. Until a few weeks ago. Kidney stones. Totally different attitude from Reception. Totally different attitude from Doctors. Totally Different attitude from the Nurse. You actually feel welcome too. Not like, you shouldn't be here like I previously felt like. Amazing service.The Very Best Doctors. The very best Nurse. Amazing Staff on Reception. If I could rate this Woodview Medical Centre higher than 5 Star I really would.”

“I’ve been registered here for years but have not needed to use the service until this year. I had been feeling worse and worse over several months and finally contacted the surgery online as it wasn’t an urgent issue. A couple of days later I received a response from Dr Kirkbride-Jamu to confirm I should have some blood tests which I was able to book in quickly. It took a few weeks to have a follow up appointment for results but as it was an issue that had built up slowly the delay wasn’t a worry so I didn’t push. Shortly before the appointment I called the surgery and asked for access to my records on the NHS app. The phone was answered quickly and the receptionist sorted it out in a couple of minutes. Within a few hours I could see the results. My immediate issue (anaemia) was discussed in the follow up with Dr Field and my prescription was sent straight to my local pharmacy. Another issue was my cholesterol which was worryingly high. Due to my age, I don’t technically meet the criteria for statins or a referral. Dr Field listened to my concerns around my family history (very early heart attacks) and said she would see what she could do. A few weeks later I had a referral to a specialist. I’m very grateful for the friendly and compassionate service from the staff at the clinic. I’ve seen so many horror stories about services in the NHS that I was worried about being fobbed off but everyone I have spoken to has listened to me and helped.”
