"Everybody was so understanding and helpful"

About: General Practices in Grampian

(as a service user),

I contacted Scotstown Medical Practice about a family member at 8am. First contact with receptionist was so friendly and helpful. Dr Gupta called me back by 10, listened, understood and made appointment to see family member that afternoon. It was a stressful day, and everybody was so understanding and helpful.  I cannot praise Dr Gupta enough for the understanding and support he provided. When I called back later in the day to confirm decision about medication, the receptionist was so lovely, and reassuring.  I had such a positive experience today and I wanted to ensure this was fed back to the practice and staff. Thank you

Dear DOLLYP,

Thank for sharing this with us. It's lovely to hear about the helpful experience you had with the Scotstown Medical Centre team. The GP Practices don't have access to respond to Care Opinion posts but I can share this with the Practice Manager and Dr Gupta today - and I'm sure they will be delighted to know how their understanding and reassuring approach made a positive difference to your day.

I hope your friend is making a good recovery.

Take care,

Kirsten
