Feedback
We’re proud to place our communities at the centre of everything we do. By actively listening to patient feedback, we shape services that reflect what truly matters to the people we care for.
We work closely with our partners to plan both responsively and proactively, exploring new ideas and innovations that improve health and wellbeing across Suffolk.
From referral to discharge, we’re committed to delivering the best possible experience at every stage of your journey—whether you’re speaking with our team, attending an appointment, or receiving care remotely.
We strive to make our care inclusive and equitable, and we regularly review what we do through the lens of equality, diversity, and inclusion to make sure no one is left behind.
And because we’re part of your community, we care about our wider social impact too, working to make a positive difference that goes beyond care.

We ask our patients for feedback regarding their experience with us.

Compliments and Suggestions
It is always nice to receive compliments; it’s also helpful to receive your suggestions. If you have a suggestion about an experience you think could have been better, we’d like to hear from you. If you would like to compliment AHP Suffolk CIC in general, or a specific member of staff, about an excellent experience, we’d like to be able to share that with colleagues so others might benefit from the same experience. Your feedback supports us to continually review and update our services.
Please send any suggestions or compliments to the staff member you have been dealing with, or send them directly to our Executive Team.
Complaints
At Allied Health Professionals Suffolk CIC we set ourselves very high standards and we recognise that sometimes things can go wrong. We hope you will not have cause to complain but, if you should, please rest assured we will act upon your complaint.
Making a complaint will not in any way affect the care you receive. In the first instance, please tell a staff member what you think is wrong and they will do their best to put it right.
If you are unable to resolve your concerns through discussion with a staff member, please contact our CEO and Executive Team:
• By email to ahpsuffolk.enquiries@nhs.net
• By telephoning 01379 770445
• Or alternatively, you can write in confidence to Joanna Douglas, CEO, Allied Health Professionals Suffolk, Hartismere Hospital, Castleton Way, Eye, Suffolk, IP23 7BH.
When we receive your complaint, our promise to you is:
Healthwatch Suffolk
We work closely with an independent organisation Healthwatch Suffolk to understand more about what is working well for our patients and what could be improved. Giving feedback is easy, it only takes a moment and you can remain anonymous.
You can also use the Healthwatch website to learn about and feedback on other NHS or social care services in your local area. Your comments will be used by Healthwatch Suffolk to shape, influence and improve local care.
You can contact the Healthwatch Suffolk team on 0800 448 8234 or via their website to share your experiences.
