To be honest Dr. Vijay was the only Dr who listened to me, as all the other Dr's will not even make you say everthing and they will just write any painkiller and ask you to go. Other Dr's would only listen to one issue you have and if you add another issue which might be relasted to your illness they will ask you to book another appointment which can take up to a month of waiting, however, Dr Vijay did listen to everything i wanted to say and he sugguested few options for me and made it up to me to choose. I would like to say thank you as this was not what i expected from Dr's now day.

In reality, it is difficult to tackle even one problem well in a 10 minute consultation. I glad you appreciate when I do try my best, although it can mean I am often running late in surgery which is not great either for patients! Thank you for taking the time to leave me your feedback.

Very calm tone, set the meeting up perfectly by saying that whatever happens, he will still likely refer me for scans in the end, which greatly reduced my anxiety when the referral actually happened. Truly listened to me, addressed all my concerns, kept me grounded and did the work he had to do while I was there to ensure everything will get done from a paperwork perspective.

Every GP can manage paperwork differently, but I do prefer to complete as much as possible with the patient present to provide assurance that it has been done without delay and to reduce the risk of errors.Thanks for taking the time to leave me your feedback and I hope everything goes as well as possible with the referral.

I seen many GPs about my problem. This was the first time I got treatment and help I needed. Thank you

Response from Dr Shanker Vijayadeva

Glad you felt you got the help you needed. As GPs, we often take a step by step approach to a problem, so it is important to keep seeking reviews if a problem persists and previous suggested treatments are not effective. Thank you for your feedback.
