Sept 22 - "We appreciate the small size of the practice and that is a family run surgery, with long serving and very efficient, professional and pleasant staff.  The phone is always answered promptly and it is usually possible to have a same day appointment.  You feel you are part of the 'family' when dealing with all concerned"
