In June 2025 we visited Howdale Surgery to speak with patients about their experience with health and social care services. From this visit we received 14 reviews for the surgery. The reviews have an average star rating of 3.8 out of 5.
Howdale Surgery is a GP surgery in the town of Downham Market. There were approximately 7100 patients registered with the surgery at the time of the last CQC inspection in August 2018. Howdale Surgery offers a variety of services including smoking cessation, chronic disease management and minor surgeries.
Overall, patients seemed satisfied with their care, praising how lovely they found staff and their helpfulness. However, people did express their frustrations over the overall organisation of the practice with issues such as appointments being booked with the wrong doctor or prescriptions not being sent to the correct place.
