At CSDP, our aim is to give you the service you expect all the time.
Hard as we try, it is impossible to keep every one of more than twenty thousand patients completely happy all the time. If you do have a problem, we would like to hear from you. If you are unhappy about our work or service and we know about it, this gives us the opportunity to put things right for you and make improvements so that other patients may benefit.
This leaflet sets out:
- How to let us know you have a complaint.
- How we will manage your complaint.
- How to get more information about our services.
