I just would like to say thank you very much for your skills and kindness that made feel better and get my health back. You take the time to listen and to make your patients feel valued and respected, treating others as you would want to be treated. Many thanks. AJ
I consider myself extremely lucky to spoken to Dr Alison Grimston this morning regarding my daughter and her extreme stomach pain due to Gilbert syndrome. She was kind, listened to me and explained everything to me where as another doctor I’d tried to speak to dismissed me and my concerns.
I cannot express my gratitude enough to her.
Dr Grimston is incredibly kind and compassionate. She listened and empathised and offered some of the best reassurance and advice I’ve ever received from a doctor. She did not want to simply just prescribe medication but offer me advice and ways and means to treat myself.
She is was of the most caring doctors I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting.
Dr Grimston was excellent. She listened to me carefully and with genuine interest and at no point did I feel that I was being pressurised for time. She did not reach for her virtual prescription pad the moment I walked into the room. In fact, she did not issue a prescription at all, just genuine reassurance, very good advice and total empathy. I must honestly say that I have found the doctors at the Meads Surgery to be outstanding. Dr Grimston is no exception. She was a breath of fresh air and her doctor/patient interaction was equitable and set one at ease throughout.
Dr Grimston is a breath of fresh air, always greets you with a smile and makes time to put you at your ease. Very efficient, listens to your concerns and offers good advice on alternative therapies and self help ideas as well as the usual medicines.
I always feel very comfortable when visiting Dr Grimston and know that my problems will be dealt with in a compassionate and un hurried way.

Profile
With 20 years' experience of general practice and a lifelong interest in women's health, endocrinology and complementary therapies, I focus on inspiring and empowering patients to take back control of their health and make informed decisions, using lifestyle and mindset to tranform their health experience and minimise the use of prescribed medications.
In my private practice and professional speaking I am particularly focused on helping individuals and organisations to deal with stress and hormone imbalances in a more pro-active way.
