GP recommendations

Chattastrophe!

Hi,

Any suggestions for a family GP in Clonsilla/Coolmine/Blanchardstown/Carpenterstown?

Would be a big advantage if they do evening/weekend appointments.

My GP retired and he sent my chart to my new GP. My new GP was chosen by me. It was closer to my new home. Iv'e never heard of anyone just getting moved without consent.

AFAIK they've split that practise ....The practise was oversubscribed I'd guess. The waiting times were very long.

GP's in general could do with a better system of scheduling patients, as it makes no sense for someone going in for 15 mins, should have to wait behind patients going in for 40 mins. They should make a appointments.

The practise was oversubscribed I'd guess. The waiting times were very long. I heard that you can request to move back after a certain time. But as with all things its probably a changing situation.

The parents are both on a medical card and they didn’t move them. Then we all think because they are older they didn’t move them.

I was saying that to doctor Gosha (can’t spell or pronounce her name properly) and she said she is going to do an appointment system. Herself down in Navan goes to a medical centre and its worlds apart, she couldn’t believe I went to a house and then just sat and waited till my turn.

Obviously my information was wrong, or has changed. As our experience was the exact opposite of yours. So I've edited my comment to remove that. I don't have a clue what they are doing, or why.

Ah cool no worries,its very strange whats going on.

Not to sound like we are special,but we have been using that doctor over thirty years,you would think they wouldn't move people who are using her that long. Last in,first out and all that.

Dr Casey in Littlepace (dr peters) She is very nice. Not sure if the catchment spreads to Ongar.
There was a good female doc in the meridian I won't attempt to write her name as I couldn't spell it but overall I wouldn't recommend the meridian to anyone. I changed due to a bad experience with them. Basically they couldn't fit my 2 and a half year old (at the time) daughter in until the following Wednesday! It was a bank holiday Friday, she had symptoms of meningitis so I ended up going to my mam's gp in ballyfermot, who is appointment only, and she fit my daughter in. Thankfully it turned out to be a very severe case of strep throat. I was going to go to the gp in Clonee or littlepace but the surgeries were closed. I did complain to meridian through work as they used them corporately and I did get an apology of sorts from the secretary.

Seeing that it seems I'm not the only one with this impression of Meridian - I thought I would share a bit from my own experience!

Tuathanach, you've already posted this experience on this thread and made your opinion of the Meridian very clear. I don't see the need to post it again.
