Physiotherapy staff took time to listen

I apologize for not being able to leave a review sooner due to account access issues. I would like to give an excellent review to the physiotherapy department. The clinician there helped me last year with an issue and is now assisting me with another concern, and I have an appointment scheduled soon. The service was very professional, warm, and friendly. I never felt rushed during my treatment. Excellent experience overall.

Felt listened to during morning appointment

What was just a morning appointment, which went well. I was then referred to hospital for further assessment. I found the care and consideration from the GP practice outstanding on this occasion, and the hospital staff were equally impressive. More healthcare professionals with this level of dedication would be greatly appreciated.

Helpful phone appointment turned into quick blood test

Initially, the appointment was arranged as a telephone consultation. However, after I described the situation concerning my child, the clinician kindly offered to see us in person for a quick blood test to investigate a particular concern. The clinician efficiently collected the blood sample themselves to expedite matters, and I subsequently delivered it to the laboratory myself. Fantastic, kind clinician and practice — thank you!
