Reliable and quick delivery
Had problem with my surgery regarding non effective inhalers. So I ordered my old more effective inhaler ventolin. Thorough check by eSurgery and ok’d and delivered next day. Price cheaper than prescription. Reliable company and I will use them again.

First time user and and very happy!
First time user and very happy! Had never heard of the company prior to a last minute search to find an inhaler supplier. Ordered it early evening with 50 minutes to spare and came next day nicely packaged and as expected. I’ve had mixed dealings with companies that offer later send times, but e-surgery really delivered and it’s been a nice experience start to finish.

Don’t bother
So order two inhalers but as I currently don’t have a go, I’m told I’m only allowed one, surely in those circumstances it would be fair to refund half my payment, not according to e surgery who state our prices are clear on our website, but I didn’t order one inhaler I ordered two it’s you who have advised that I can only have one. I wouldn’t have ordered only one as your price is too high

Hello David,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We strive to provide a seamless and transparent purchasing experience for all of our patients, so I apologise for the confusion with your recent order.
As you noted, unfortunately we were only able to issue 1 inhaler on this occasion due to our prescribing guidelines. For us to issue more than 1 inhaler, we do require GP details so that we can ensure that we are working alongside your GP and that they are being kept in the loop with your treatment. Since that was not the case on this occasion, we advised that we could only fulfil one inhaler at that time which I can see that you agreed to proceed with.
I understand your perspective that a partial refund would have been appropriate given the change in quantity. In this case, we refunded the difference in cost with the reduced quantity as per the prices which we state on our website. Unfortunately, we would be unable to refund half of the initial amount charged as when ordering 2 inhalers, the second inhaler is discounted.
I hope you can appreciate that our policies are in place to ensure medication safety and compliance. If you have any other questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to our customer service team by emailing us at hello@e-surgery.com or calling us on 01603 931600. We are committed to resolving issues to your satisfaction.
Thank you for your understanding.
Kind regards

Disappointed
I take a Salamol inhaler and have mostly purchased them privately and have always had them prescribed. I suffer with a tight chest when pollen levels are exceptionally high or during cold weather. Since I had COVID back in the summer I have found I have needed to reach for my inhaler more frequently.
Other online pharmacies have always been happy to prescribe these. However, e-surgery was significantly cheaper and has had so many good reviews, I decided to give them a go.
I completed the questionnaire as normal and explained my situation exactly as I have to other companies. 6 hours later I get a notification stating my order has been rejected and a refund issued. This despite the fact, I am currently using and have been prescribed this inhaler.
Even the GP has given me this inhaler on a casual basis and not a repeat prescription. Due to issues getting appointments, I purchased online instead.
Once I receive my refund I will be using my previous company who are happy to prescribe these to me.

Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We understand your frustration and would like to look into this matter further.
We are sorry to hear that your order was rejected. Our prescribing decisions are based on strict medical guidelines to ensure patient safety. We are only licensed to issue these inhalers for chronic respiratory conditions such as asthma and COPD.
However, we would like to better understand your situation. Could you please get in touch with us directly? You can reach us by phone at 01603 931600 or by email at hello@e-surgery.com. When contacting us, please provide your order number so we can investigate the specific reasons why we were unable to issue your order.
We value your feedback and would appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns personally. Your health and satisfaction are important to us, and we hope to clarify any misunderstandings.
Kind regards,

Untrustworthy pharmacy
I placed an order and was sent a different item. The basic ingredient was same but the size and ingredients differed slightly to my order. I was not able to use the inhaler and contacted them straight away. They did not respond to my 3 emails or chat on their Web site. I re contacted them but they had blinkers on and refused to accept returns or refund money
Extra reply: Can I suggest you read my comments on my order. I have shared photos of my Ventolin order plus other photos with my bank to prove my point.

Hello,
Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We take all customer feedback seriously and would like to address the concerns you've raised.
Firstly, we want to assure you that we have dispatched the exact item that was requested through our website. Our records show that the product you received matches the one you ordered.
We understand there may be some confusion regarding the product you thought you purchased. As discussed with one of our team members on the phone yesterday, we can confirm that the specific item you believed you had ordered is not something we offer in our product range. We strive to be very clear about the treatments available on our website to avoid any misunderstandings.
We would like to emphasise that the details of each treatment, including ingredients and specifications, are clearly presented on our website. We encourage all our customers to review this information carefully before placing an order to ensure they are selecting the product that best meets their needs.
Regarding returns and refunds, we must clarify our policy. Once an order has been dispatched from our pharmacy, we are unable to accept returns. This is because each order is personalised for the individual patient, and due to pharmaceutical regulations, we cannot resell these items. This policy is in place to ensure the safety and integrity of all our products.
We apologise if there was any difficulty in reaching our customer service team. We aim to respond to all inquiries promptly and will look into why you experienced delays in getting a response.
Thank you for your understanding. If you have any further concerns, please don't hesitate to contact our customer service team by calling us on 01603 931600 or emailing us at hello@e-surgery.com.
Kind regards,
Bradley

Not reliable
My son and I are asthmatic people. He had an asthma attack due to hay fever so I’ve tried to order some Ventolin to have some stock as he was using it to breath better during his allergies.
It took several days of my order being stuck after purchase, asking me details about prescription, which I provided (twice as they didn’t check the first email properly) to in the end having to cancel the order as my son ended up in hospital as he couldn’t breath anymore.
I will never use their service again.

Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I am very sorry to hear about your son's health difficulties.
We understand your frustration with the order process, however there are important safety protocols we must follow. Our records show that the order was placed under your name, not your son's. As clearly stated in our health consultation, we require the patient's details for each order. Additionally, patients are required in the health consultation to confirm that they are over the age of 18, as we are unable to sell medication to minors.
Our health consultation also includes other important confirmations that patients must acknowledge. These include understanding that our service is not for emergency respiratory conditions and patients must also confirm they have not run out of inhalers. These measures are in place for patient safety, especially considering potential delivery delays with Royal Mail and any questions our prescribers may have.
For patients who have run out of inhalers or are experiencing acute respiratory issues, we strongly advise contacting their GP, NHS 111, or a local pharmacy for immediate assistance. These services are better equipped to handle urgent situations and ensure timely access to necessary medication.
We regret that our service did not meet your expectations in this instance. Patient safety is our utmost priority, which necessitates our strict adherence to these protocols. We hope this explanation provides some clarity on our processes and the reasons behind them.
Kind regards,
Bradley

Hello,
Thanks for the great review! We're glad we could quickly provide the backup inhaler you needed for your car when your local pharmacy couldn't.
Asking the right questions to understand your situation is important to us. We're pleased our online consultation process worked smoothly.
Thank you for your business. We look forward to serving your needs again soon.

Completely wasted my time
Completely wasted my time. I made a mistype on an inhaler where I ordered a lower dose by 50 instead of 100 of mcg. This seemed to cause major issues for them and they began demanding prescription labels, etc. Nobody else does this on an inhaler and I'm at work. The idea of the proposition is not to have that horrible time wasting experience of going to a surgery, waiting for a hugely delayed appointment only to have your GP write the same old prescription again. Yet here we are.

Hello Glyn,
Thank you for taking the time to review our service and I am sorry to hear that we are unable to issue your request.
With our current licenses we are able to work alongside your GP but we are not intended to replace them. Therefore we are unable to initiate new treatment or diagnose at this time.
As you requested a different dose to your last order, our prescriber required proof of prescription on this occasion. I fully understand that you stated that this was a mistype, however once a request for proof of prescription has been asked, we do have to follow through with this to ensure that we are working alongside what your GP has prescribed and not initiating any new treatment/doses.
I am sorry that we were unable to provide treatment on this occasion. Please refer to your GP or NHS 111.
If you would like to discuss any of this, please do feel free to email us at hello@e-surgery.com or call us on 01603 931600

Hopeless and stress inducing
Hopeless and stress inducing
I ordered an inhaler for my elderly mother when in an emergency we found she was about to run out before we could get one prescribed All seemed to be approved and then at last minute was told that it wasn't going to be prescribed. This required me making a 250 mile round trip to get an emergency inhaler for my asthmatic mother who was in a complete panic. I was then approached by Trustpilot to say that they were going to take down my genuine review if I didn't get in touch with e surgery, so I have reluctantly wasted more of my time with this company explaining the reason for the low rating . Please recognise the implications of what you did here.

Hello,
I am very sorry to hear of this and I am sorry that you have had a negative experience with our service.
Unfortunately, as an online pharmacy we are unable to offer emergency supplies of medication as we are not licensed to be an emergency service. This is due to our orders being delivered by post and therefore there is the potential risks of delays/delivery issues. At the start of the health consultation for inhalers, all patients are required to confirm that they have not ran out of their inhalers and that they understand that we are not an emergency service. If a patient does require an emergency prescription, we would refer them to speak with their GP, call NHS 111 or contact a local pharmacy.
I am sorry that we were unable to fulfil this order and if you would like to discuss this further, please do get in touch by emailing us at hello@e-surgery.com or calling us on 01603 931600.
Kind regards,
Bradley
