Dear Mr Ribsskog Our Ref: EN-70818 (please quote this reference in all correspondence concerning this matter) Thank you for your emails of 16 and 22 October 2009 to the Health Service Ombudsman about two GP practices. You do not know the name of one of the practices, but name the other practice as Marybone Health Centre. The Ombudsman’s role is to look into complaints about poor treatment or service provided by the NHS. The Ombudsman usually deals with complaints after the local NHS complaints procedure has been completed. From the emails you have sent, it seems you still need to complete this process. If you wish to continue with your complaint, you should first write to the Practice Manager of the GP practices and ask them to resolve it. If, receiving the final response from the practices you remain unhappy, it is then open to you to re-approach the Ombudsman. You will need to explain specifically what was wrong with their response to your complaint and to state what you want the Ombudsman to do. At that point we will look at your complaint carefully to decide if we can help. There is no automatic right to an investigation by the Ombudsman; there has to be a good reason for her to investigate a complaint. You should send us copies of any relevant correspondence and papers which you have. We will also need written permission to obtain any papers and records connected to the complaint, and to know whether legal action is being taken about it (as that may prevent the Ombudsman from looking at the complaint). If you need direct help or advice in making a complaint, you should contact your regional Independent Complaints Advocacy Service (ICAS) office. You can find their details from the following link: http://www.carersfederation.co.uk/what-we-do/icas/office_results.php?region=north_west ICAS is a voluntary organisation providing independent advocacy to people making complaints under the NHS complaints procedure. I note that part of your complaint is about not being allowed to register with a GP practice. You may find the following link helpful that explains about registering with GP practices: http://www.nhs.uk/chq/Pages/1095.aspx?CategoryID=68&SubCategoryID=158 Please contact me if you have any questions.
