  Thanks so much to Dr George for being so caring and understanding and providing me with the right information about my concern. If it was not for him, I would still be in pain and not attended emergency which then discovered I needed my appendix out. Follow up appointment with him, made me feel like he really cared and that he was concerned about my recovery. Thanks again and would recommend him to future patients

  I been seeing this GP as my family GP for last past 7 years and when the time I need legal document to be signed from professionals occpation list.
  This clinic rejected me said they don't do it FOR FREE and I haven't seen them in last 5 months (what's it got to do with that?!! So I have to be sick all the time?!!!!! Hungry money!!!
  
  Everytime when I visited this place always a mess, and wait long time like 1hour. If it's quick can be 30 mins waiting, if you lucky
  Also car park full until patient car have to park block other car because Dr. Always running late around 1 hour.
  
  When you compare time consumption where there are so many clinics around this area, that you can enter, not too long tp wait and similar result consult plus no fee that you have to pay every visit time, it's worth to change to another good clinic, and I found my new regular local GP now
