Some key things are problematic though:
1. You cant make appointments online. You have to call up and the wait to get through can be long. Makes it tough to do.
2. There seems to be no way to send a note or somethint to the doctor or do things by email or other messaging option which is really difficult.
3. Repeat prescriptions are an absolute nightmare. You send an email into the abyss and then their pharmacy team (managed by the Harbs pharmacists) informs me that they refuse to meet reasonable accommodations for disclosed disabilities, or even to have basic decency of acknowledging receipt of your request, let alone letting you know once it's processed and sent to the pharmacy. So you have no idea whats going on for days, sometimes longer. So you just have to keep calling your pharmacy to find out if they have your prescription yet, as long as you remember and have time and capacity and when i have emailed begging for help or some kind of adjustment or acknowledgement or anything, the pharmacy team have been really dismissive and it's clear they have no interest in providing any support or reviewing their system.
4. Econsult system is also awful to navigate. It's long and convoluted and confusing and has too many questions and repetition but also word counts. Very frustrating that this is sometimes the fastest way to get an appointment because otherwise they insist that you have a telephone appointment first, which doesn't make sense for something that needs to be seen physically
I do want to end though by saying that i do really appreciate the actual doctors and nurses and reception staff here, theyre all nice and I've had predominantly good experiences over the years ive been a patient here. It's really just the systems in place that i have a problem with. I know some of those systems are not directly implemented by EPHC but i also know that other practices do have alternative/more options and are much better for communication procedures/options and there is the feature to allow for making appointments online, they just choose not to make it work for their practice seemingly.
