Complaints, Suggestions & Compliments

Important:  From April 2026, all NHS concerns and complaints are handled under the ‘Listening to People’ approach.  This ensures your concerns are heard, understood, and responded to with compassion.

 

We aim to provide the best possible service to everyone who attends our practice.

We welcome your feedback, whether it is a concern, complaint, compliment, or suggestion.  Your experience helps us improve the care we provide

If something has not gone as expected, we will listen and work with you to resolve your concerns as quickly and supportively as possible

 

Listening to People is the national NHS Wales approach to handling concerns and complaints.

When you raise a concern, you can expect: 

  •      To be listened to and treated with dignity and respect
  •      Your concerns to be taken seriously
  •      Clear explanations and honest communication
  •      Support throughout the process
  •      Services to learn and improve from you experience
