My family and I are now leaving this drs practice. We can never get an appointment with an actual doctor - even when our baby is poorly. Same story we are told time and time again - no appointments but you can see a nursing practitioner! The former are pretty lousy - but the latter are even worse. I imagine it is just a matter of time before a serious medical incident - life lost - occurs due the atrocious care given by this practice.

They were always nice and amazing with kids just never helped, never seen things that other doctors have seen straight away! They always said things like 'he'll be fine' or when I asked eg.why is my son has high fever for weeks , they answered 'I don't know what's wrong, probably a virus' ([name removed]) or 'no clue' ([name removed]) etc. so we left the surgery and it came out my son got enlarged adenoid and even turbonate so he was referred to ENT since and gets help. So even if they are very kind and friendly, they weren't very professional.
