Testimonials

"I have worked with Abi and her team for seven years now and feel completely safe in their hands. We as a Practice were so impressed with Honey Barrett's professionalism and responsiveness that we recommended them to our Primary Care Network. I believe from there, they went on to take on several more Primary Care Network's Accounts as word got around how rigorous and adept they were. I have also recently started working for another Practice in the Locality and have convinced the Partners there to change to Honey Barretts as I have such confidence in their ability to look after us diligently. River Darent Medical Group have two sites both dispensing and Kate and Natalie are brilliant at ironing out any VAT confusion. I have to say I couldn't be happier with them and would wholeheartedly recommend them to other Practices both dispensing and non-dispensing."

"I just wanted to say how incredible Tori has been over the past 2 years. She took on a pretty daunting case of trying to find and sort out my very chaotic nhs pension and my Type 2 forms etc.

As I have worked in multiple practices over 25 years this was an enormous task.Being a GP I am very used to dealing with people and Tori showed huge patience, empathy and understanding of both the minefield of nhs pensions and also the emotional stress that it caused myself.

She is a true gem and I wanted to let you know how incredible she has been.I hope I can continue to work with her as long as I am employed and have recommended her to many colleagues."
