At Woodville South GP, our primary goal has always been to provide exceptional healthcare services to our valued patients. We recently conducted a patient survey to gather feedback and gauge the satisfaction levels of our patients. We are thrilled to share that the survey results indicate a high level of satisfaction, with over 95% of our patients expressing contentment with the healthcare they receive. While we are humbled by this positive feedback, we also recognize the importance of addressing areas where improvement is needed. In this blog post, we will delve into the survey results, highlight the areas identified for improvement, and outline our strategies to enhance your experience at our practice.

Clinician’s Availability: A staggering 95% of respondents felt that our clinicians provided sufficient time to listen to their concerns. This feedback reassures us that our healthcare professionals are attentive, empathetic, and prioritize patient-centered care.
Areas for Improvement: While the overall satisfaction rates were impressive, the survey also revealed valuable feedback on areas where we can improve our services to better serve our patients:
-
Access to Care after Clinic Hours: Patients expressed a desire for clearer information regarding where to seek medical care when our clinic is closed. We acknowledge the importance of providing comprehensive guidance on accessing healthcare outside regular hours, and we are committed to improving our communication channels to address this concern effectively.
-
Urgent Care Availability: Some patients indicated a need for improved access to urgent care within our clinic. We understand that emergencies can arise unexpectedly, and we are dedicated to exploring ways to enhance our capacity to accommodate urgent care needs promptly.
-
Expanding Our General Practitioner Team: As our patient base continues to grow, we recognize the need to source additional General Practitioners to meet the rising demand for healthcare services. We value your time and want to ensure that appointments are readily available, and our team remains accessible to provide comprehensive care.
Our Plan for Improvement: At Woodville South GP, we are committed to continuous improvement and providing the best possible care to our patients. Building upon the feedback received, we have developed a plan to address the areas identified for improvement:
-
Improved Communication: We will enhance our communication channels to provide clear and concise information on accessing medical care outside our clinic hours. This will include resources, such as an updated website and more prominently displayed information within our practice.
-
On the day Appointments: We are actively exploring options to improve our capacity to provide timely urgent care services. We continue to hold “on the day” appointments for patients requiring semi-urgent care. We do take each request seriously and try our best to accommodate.
-
Recruiting Additional General Practitioners: Recognizing the importance of maintaining availability for our patients, we are actively sourcing and recruiting additional General Practitioners. Please be patient with this as GPs are increasingly difficult to find.
Your satisfaction and well-being are of utmost importance to us. We are grateful for the positive feedback received through our recent patient survey, which highlights the high level of care and service we strive to provide. Additionally, the feedback has allowed us to identify areas for improvement, and we are committed to implementing the necessary changes to enhance your experience at our practice.
