COMPLAINTS PROCEDURE – Information for Patients
________________________________________
YourGP is committed to providing a high-quality independent healthcare service to all patients. All clinic staff recognise that there may be occasions when patients may wish to complain about some aspect of the service. If you feel you wish to discuss an issue, or indeed make a complaint, we would kindly ask that you bring this to the attention of a member of staff as soon as possible. This complaints procedure ensures that your complaint will be dealt with as quickly as possible.
Verbal complaints
If you wish to speak to someone about an aspect of the YourGP healthcare service, please try to do so as soon as possible, preferably before you leave the clinic premises. Staff will make every effort to resolve your complaint as quickly as possible. If your concerns are not resolved to your satisfaction, you will be advised on the process to make a formal written complaint.
Written complaints
All written complaints should be addressed to the Practice Manager, at the postal address or by email to feedback@your.gp. Please describe as fully as you can the nature of your complaint stating the following information:
• what you are unhappy about
• when the incident took place, and
• what clinic staff were present at the time.
Your complaint will be acknowledged in writing within three (3) working days of receiving the letter or email.
We will carry out a full investigation of the nature of your complaint and offer to meet with you in order to resolve the issue/s. You will receive a full written response within twenty (20) working days of the complaint being received. If a full response cannot be given within twenty (20) working days of receiving your complaint, we will write to you to explain the reason for the delay. You will receive a full written response within five (5) days of a conclusion being reached.

I was visiting with my son from California, US and he became ill. It was such a relief to find you and receive such expert care. He was diagnosed with bronchitis and we were given antibiotics right on the spot. My son was better in a few days and able to enjoy the remainder of our stay. Thank you very much. I highly recommend AND the location is beautiful. For any out-of-town folks it is a must-see!
