What our patients say
The doctor was friendly and respectful and asked if would mind a student being present. He listened to my story very carefully and was thorough with his examination and arrived quickly to a conclusion. He referred me to A&E for CT scan and blood tests.

Receptionists were extremely kind and friendly. I used the triage form for the first time and received a call back with an appointment in under half an hour. Saw Dr Raybould also for the first time and she was excellent.
