Report
I'm just upset. Dr Mo completely dismissed me. I told her my eye hurts, and my left hand side of my face feels swollen and painful.
she said nothing is wrong, I can't see nothing you're just to self conscious!!!. She told me just because my eye is open nothing is wrong! I was completely shocked. Everyone I met could visibly see this! Given its covid, I've made my way out of my house in this horrible, cold, wet, windy weather, she couldn't just even sit and talk to me to see if the problem could be something else. Or discuss why my claims of my left hand side of my face hurting and feeling swollen

Report
Most incompetent doctors at this surgery esp Dr Modi. They dont care about patients are completely carefree, have to keep chasing about medical reports which they claim they havent received even when the specialists have sent them. This practice should be investigated for the huge number of negative reviews.

During the long lockdown, our mum suddenly became ill. The amazing team at this medical Centre, from reception staff, Hansa, Mamta to name a few as we don't know the other names, as well as the GP's Drs Morjaria, Shah, Modi- all pulled out the stops. Urgent consultations and referrals arranged, prompt return of telephone calls and everyone so courteous and kind. You represent the best of the NHS. Thank you all from Kishoree, Nirmal and Krishna Kotecha for all your help for our mum.
