Code of Practice for Patient Complaints

We want all of our patients to be pleased with the service they receive, so we take complaints extremely seriously. If a patient makes a complaint, we will deal with it promptly and courteously. Our aim is to resolve the matter as quickly and efficiently as possible following the agreed procedure and, wherever possible, to the satisfaction of the patient.

A complaint may indicate a failing on the company's part, which upon taking appraisal we can learn from and make improvements to our service. We will adopt a ''No blame'' approach when investigating a complaint and especially where individuals are identified, with the aim of reaching a satisfactory conclusion. We will, at all times be polite and respectful to our patients.

  1. The Practice Complaints Manager, Krunal Kalani is responsible for dealing with all complaints about our service.
  2. If a patient makes a complaint in person or by telephone, the member of staff receiving the complaint makes an initial record of their concerns and checks this for accuracy with the patient. The patient is given a copy of the record and the original is passed to the Complaint Manager. If the Complaints Manager is available, the patient is asked whether they would like to see him/her immediately. Otherwise the patient is advised when the Complaints Manager will make contact to arrange a meeting in person or by telephone.
  3. If the patient complains in writing or by e-mail, the complaint will be passed immediately to the Complaints Manager
  4. Complaints about clinical care or the amount charged for treatment will be referred to the dentist concerned, unless the patient requests otherwise
  5. All complaints are acknowledged in writing as soon as possible, but within 3 working days a copy of this code of practice will be sent with the acknowledgement. If the patient has not yet discussed the matter with the Complaints Manager, they will be offered the opportunity to do so and also be asked how they would like to be kept informed of developments – by letter, e-mail, telephone or face to face meetings. The patient will also be advised of the process we will follow in resolving the complaint and the anticipated timescale.
  6. We will investigate the complaint as quickly and efficiently as possible. The patient will be informed of the progress of the investigation. Investigations will normally be completed within 4 weeks.
  7. On completion of our investigation, we will provide the patient with a full written report, which will include
    • An explanation of how the complaint has been considered
    • The conclusion reached in respect of each specific part of the complaint
    • Details of any necessary remedial action
    • Whether the Practice is satisfied with any action it has already taken or will be taking as a result of then complaint
  8. Proper and comprehensive records will be kept of any complaint received as well as any actions taken to improve services as a consequence of a complaint.
  9. If a patient is not satisfied with the result, then the complaint may be referred.
