Patient Experience Summary

Patient feedback for this practice reflects a mixed experience with notable contrasts across service areas. Many patients report positive interactions with medical professionals, particularly praising professional expertise, attentive listening, and compassionate care during consultations. Reception experience and appointment access emerge as significant concerns, with multiple patients describing difficulties booking appointments, extended waiting times when calling at opening hours, and inconsistent courtesy from front desk staff. Communication challenges are evident, including issues with prescription processing, contradictory information about service availability, and problems with telephone responsiveness. Several patients note that while clinical care can be thorough and responsive, the booking experience and reception interactions often fall short of expectations, creating friction in the overall care pathway.

Patients who have experienced continuity of care over extended periods generally express satisfaction with the medical attention received, describing doctors as genuinely concerned and willing to spend time on comprehensive examinations. However, concerns about reception professionalism persist across multiple reviews, with some patients reporting dismissive or unhelpful interactions when attempting to access services. A subset of feedback highlights serious concerns about appointment availability, with patients reporting zero slots available despite calling at designated booking times, and frustration about the gap between appointment scheduling and actual waiting experiences. These operational challenges appear to undermine confidence in the service despite positive clinical feedback.

Disappointing medical care from unprofessional doctors

The general practitioners fall far short of my expectations. There are moments when I feel I possess more medical knowledge than they do, which severely undermines my faith in their abilities. Unfortunately, their lack of professionalism and apparent disinterest is concerning. I genuinely want to feel confident in their care for the sake of my health, but they make that incredibly difficult.

Exceptional healthcare with personal touch and caring staff

This medical practice is exceptional. The reception staff are incredibly welcoming and supportive, and the nursing team is equally wonderful. Dr. Mehmood stands out as the most outstanding physician I've ever encountered, consistently demonstrating genuine attentiveness and compassion during consultations. I appreciate the intimate scale of this clinic, which offers a more personalized experience compared to larger, impersonal healthcare facilities that feel like medical processing centers. Having been a patient here for 16 years, I've never once felt the need to raise a concern or complaint about the care provided.

Unprofessional staff ruin potential quality healthcare

The staff's demeanor is shockingly unprofessional. It's frustrating that you must interact with them to schedule appointments or resolve concerns. Receptionists routinely disclose sensitive medical results and diagnoses loudly in crowded waiting areas, compromising patient privacy. They interrogate patients about personal health details before even considering booking an appointment. Confidential information is mishandled, potentially exposed to unauthorized individuals, and they cannot account for who has accessed medical records. When patients voice legitimate complaints about this treatment, the staff become aggressive, talking over them and abruptly ending conversations. The service quality is appalling, and I am currently pursuing formal complaints about their unethical practices. While the medical practitioners themselves are occasionally personable, they can be overly dismissive. Overall, the entire experience feels impersonal and mechanical, like patients are merely processed through a system rather than receiving individualized care.

Great surgery with compassionate and caring staff

The medical practice I visit has an incredibly inviting atmosphere right from the front desk. I've been a patient here for nearly two decades, and what truly sets them apart is how the physicians genuinely care. They don't just focus on my medical issue, but they take a moment to ask how I'm doing personally, which I deeply appreciate.

Friendly staff, but one doctor needs serious attitude adjustment

The staff here are incredibly welcoming and Dr. Mehmood is exceptional, but the female doctor working on Mondays left much to be desired. I had scheduled an appointment with her to discuss some concerns, and just three days prior, on Friday evening, I was involved in a severe car accident. When I brought this up to her, she coldly suggested I should have booked a separate appointment for that issue. How could I possibly do that when the accident occurred Friday night? Her lack of empathy was astounding, and I'm genuinely questioning her suitability as a medical professional. Doctors should fundamentally be compassionate and patient-focused. What made her response even more frustrating was that the waiting room was completely empty that day. Ultimately, she did see me, but her response left me utterly bewildered and disappointed.
