Report
Im very impressed with this Medical Centre. Here the staff are very friendly and helpful and even though they are very busy with the Retinopathy examinations. They were prompt and took their time explaining the procedures. Thank You to all the staff. Because it made it a lot easier and it felt a safe environment during the current Covid-19 pandemic

Report
Having just moved to the Chesterfield area, from Sutton-in-Ashfield, I was worried about how easy it would be, to re-register at a new GP's practice. Even though it is a different health area, my husband and I, found the process surprisingly simple. The receptionists were so friendly and helpful to us, whilst we filled in 'new patient' paperwork. Plus, I was able to get straight in, with an appointment, to actually see Dr Nathan. A first actual face-to-face appointment, in the last 20 months! Wonderful....

Report
The service I have received over the past week has been fantastic from the young male receptionist, the 2 nurses and the Dr. To say the pressure they are currently working under, nothing has been too much trouble. I would certainly recommend this practice to anyone. You should be very proud of your team Dr Sid
