Every day we receive hundreds of requests by phone and at the reception desk.

Please help us by filling out our patient survey or use our on-line suggestions box or our paper version in the reception area.  We do look at what you say! Wherever we can (money and time permitting) we will make changes to improve how things work for you.  We look forward to hearing your ideas!

Thank you for being patient patients - and if you have an idea for a guide that we can put on this page you can let us know here
