ALL the staff and Doctors are just amazing ++ Huge shout out for Dr Riddings and Dr Jihora (forgive spellings if incorrect) for their timely, thorough and expert treatment of (in my opinion) a potentially very grave illness. God bless you all! When I'm well and if you ever want a volunteer, I'm here!

Report
Usually fairly straightforward to get an appointment and doctors/nurses you see are alright, though I've never seen the same individual twice. One doctor moved me to a 'cheaper' alternative for a long-term prescribed medicine which took a few months to get corrected when it didn't suit me. The real let down is the reception staff, they really enforce that stereotype of doctors receptionists! The prescriptions clerk was rude and patronising too, threatening to leave a note about misuse of a prescribed medicine on my medical record when I asked for my repeat prescription early so I didn't run out
