How you make a complaint about primary care services has changed

There are two ways people can make a complaint about GPs, dentists, opticians or pharmacies:

o They can complain to the healthcare provider: this is the organisation where they received the NHS service, for example a GP practice, a dental practice, a community pharmacy or an optometry practice or

o They can complain to the commissioner of the service: this is the organisation that paid for the service or care they received.

After 1 July 2023 if people want to make a complaint about primary care services to the commissioner, the way to do this is changing. Rather than contacting NHS England, people will contact the Complaints team via new contact details below:

South East Complaints Hub

NHS Frimley ICB

Aldershot Centre for Health

Hospital Hill 

Aldershot 

Hampshire 

GU11 1AY

Phone number: 0300 561 0290 

Email address: frimleyicb.southeastcomplaints@nhs.net

As each email received is so important to the team, an acknowledgement to all complaints will be sent as soon as possible.

Information governance regulations mean that the emails sent to the old email address after 1 July, cannot be automatically forwarded and the inbox will not be accessible. People will therefore receive an automatic response, asking them to resend their email to the new address.

Members of the public with ongoing complaints received after 1 July 2022 will receive a letter from NHS England informing them that the Complaints team based in the South East Complaints Hub, hosted by NHS Frimley ICB will now be handling their complaint with confirmation of their case handler. We would like to reassure you that the current team and case handler will remain the same as the staff move organisation.

Members of the public will still be able to make a complaint to the provider. This is NOT changing. There is also no change for people wishing to make a complaint for specialised services, health and justice, screening and immunisations and Continuing Healthcare.

Orthopaedic Specialists in the Practice

A service which started in 2017. We are delighted to have a new member of staff, from Premier Physio Group and employed through the Fleet Network, specifically seeing patients with orthopaedic issues. Please tell the receptionist if you have an orthopaedic (bone or muscular) problem, and they will book you in directly so your treatment can begin straight away. This is not a physiotherapist but they can refer you on to physio, outpatients, or for an x-ray or injection if needed.

Fleet Paramedic Service

The Fleet practices now share a home visiting service, with two paramedics able to attend house calls, with the idea being that they can get to you much quicker than one of our GPs can. Your doctor will assess a house call request and if deemed appropriate, they will ask the paramedic to attend. They work collaboratively with the team here and report back after each visit. Feedback so far is excellent.
