What our patients say
Feedback from people we look after across Shard End and Birmingham. Rated 4.8 stars from 179 Google reviews.
I came in without an appointment for a chest infection and the pharmacist saw me within ten minutes. Genuinely quicker than waiting for my GP and the advice was clear.
Been getting my repeat medication from Chesters for years now. The team know me by name and they always chase the surgery if something is missing.
Had my travel jabs done here before a trip to India. They talked me through exactly what I needed and did not push anything extra on me.
Ear wax removal was quick and painless and I could hear properly again the same afternoon. Lovely staff, very reassuring throughout.
Blood pressure check was free and took five minutes. They spotted a high reading and made sure my GP was told the same day.
