During the current pandemic the surgery is experiencing unprecedented volumes of telephone calls causing a huge problem, particularly on Mondays.
The telephone company assures us that the problems are purely down to volume of calls (resembling a call centre). All lines are in use constantly for both inbound and outbound calls. Consequently this can result in ‘call number 1 in the queue’ being cut off as there is nowhere for the call to go. We share patient’s frustration with these problems and ask for your patience and understanding.
We apologise for the inconvenience caused and encourage patients to use other methods of contact such as Doctorlink, Patient Access and e-mail to:- patientsofqmc@nhs.net

Queensway Medical Centre would like to invite you to join DoctorLink.
We have been looking at how we can improve access to Practice services; DoctorLink is our new online service where you can access advice and appointments on line.
Registration is simple and you can register here https://app.doctorlink.com/qmc/register
For all urgent appointment, we ask that you undertake a symptom assessment through DoctorLink.
The symptom checker will ask you a number of questions to help to identify your problem.
The outcome of your assessment will direct you to the right treatment, whether emergency care, your GP, nurse, self-care or alternative clinical services.
If your outcome indicates that an appointment is required at Queensway Medical Centre, you simply click on the request appointment link.
Once the request has been submitted, you will then be contacted by the Practice Team, to arrange an appointment within the identified timeframe (as outlined in the outcome of your symptom checker).
The information you provide will be shared with our clinical team (where appropriate) and will assist in providing robust information of your problem to the required clinical team member prior to your appointment.
