Which GP surgery for chronic conditions


Recommended Posts

I read plenty of bad reviews on here about NHS GP surgeries. Are there any good ones that serve SE15/SE22 area?

Extra points if the practice is known to managed chronic health/ pain conditions well. And bonus points if the practice (or particular GP) also works well alongside specialists within private practice. I say this because, in my experience, it can be frustratingly difficult to get NHS and private medical professionals to communicate with each other!

Not sure, but if you care to look up the various GPs and check what their 'speciality' is then that may be a way forward

I've been with the Forest Hill Road practice for over 40 years and couldn't have been happier with the service and care we've received. I've seen posts on here complaining about the wait for appointments but if you NEED to be seen urgently, they will always fit you in. My husband and I both have chronic conditions, and are always able to get appointments when we need them either booking ahead for routine consultations, or on the day if it's urgent. About a month ago, I rang the surgery for advice in the middle of the afternoon; a GP rang me back within 20 minutes, and gave me an appointment 20 minutes later, so I was seen in less than an hour from my first phone call. There has been quite a change in staff over the last couple of years, but the new doctors, as well as those who have been there for a while, all seem to be excellent.

The DMC Surgery In Chadwick Road services SE15 but I do not have any experience with them. Melbourne Grove does too, and they are taking over the new medical centre at Dulwich Hospital combined with the Hambledon Medical Practice. Hopefully MGMP will improve.

Hey, I hope you're well. I'm sorry for the out of the blue message. I'm an Assistant Producer at a TV production company called TwoFour and we are producing a new series offering people the chance to see experts, possible treatment and to have a chat about their skin conditions. If you'd be interested in applying please email [email protected] or if you'd like to have a phone chat before applying let me know and I?ll give you a ring to fill you in. Additionally, if you have any friends or family who may be interested please help us spread the word. Thanks so much. Katie x

    • Do also remember that, whilst this is the original there is an unrelated FB presence with a (very) similar name, which might also be prayed in aid. 
    • Yet another increase, its absolutely disgusting. I was charged £7.95 to send documents recorded delivery last week. I asked for the Signed for option that only costs £2.50 but the Post Office refused & said they would only send them recorded delivery. 
    • Thanks Admin for clarifying - I’ve now found the post they used to scrape my telephone number from. So it wasn’t a data breach from EDF, rather my foolishness posting it online 15 years ago…    Still leaving this thread here if that’s ok so that people are aware of this scam and don’t fall foul of it (also to think twice before posting phone numbers here as it can be used by any one as I’ve found out!)
    • There is deliberately nowhere to enter your phone number, name, address etc anywhere when registering an account on this forum. There never has been. There is no way to attach this sort of personal information to your account.  If someone says that EDF has given your phone number, then this is a lie. No personal information is sold to any third party and it is not collected in the first place.
