    Hi have attended this practice for numerous years for myself and my three children. I understand that you pay for your appointments with your time and have always been accepting of the up to 3hr wait times, mostly due to the fact that I found our preferred GP to be exceptionally thorough and informative (hence why doctor appears to have such a big following). However, recently I attended with my daughter to obtain a "basic medical' for air-force cadet purpose, our preferred GP was not starting till 1pm so we opted to see the 'next available'. After a 2hr wait, we then spent a further 30mins with the GP procrastinating about doing the medical, then chose to proceed with obtaining a urine specimen. We waited a further 20mins outside office only to be called back through for further procrastination eventually saying "I feel it would be best for her to see her usual GP as I would have to go through with her (my daughter) all her medical history. Ummm, hello that's what the records on the computer a for. 12.5hrs spent in total over 4 days in a 7 day period trying obtain this medical with 5.5 of those hours being in one day and up until the the 8th hour we still hadn't covered the basics of height, weight, eye test, pulse, heart sounds, blood pressure and reflexes. These were what was being asked of the GP on the medical, not blood tests and x-rays. I too find that the front staff appear to be unfriendly and carry a care factor of zero. I understand that they must feel somewhat stressed, they would have many of anxious, angry, irate patients to deal with in a day, however part of their job is to ensure the stresses of their job does not impact on how they operate as being the 'face of the clinic'. I wonder too, about perhaps in the instance where a GP has such a huge following about reducing the quantity of new patients that this particular GP sees? We were also told that the GP started at 1pm, however it was 2pm before she took her first patient through?? Overall, what had been previously a non-eventful and straightforward task to obtain resulted in being a time consuming and costly task with many unnecessary situations.

    Average service!
    I have visited the Medical Centre around 10 times. Waiting times vary, however seem to be at least 45min+
    I have waited in excess of 4 hours on a Saturday, over the lunchtime period. It can also be difficult to request your preferred doctor when they stop taking patients as early as 10am and the order of queuing appears to be random.

    I dont know what you guys are going on about. My time there was excellent. Except the staff could have been a little bit more nicer. It was pretty full the day i went and i got in within 5 mins.

    This is the only doctors i go to.. 3 1/2 hrs? I have never waited that long and some times when its not busy i only wait 5 minutes, pick ya times people, most of the time theres probly 30 patients & 7 doctors so the wait shouldnt be too long. I also like it because its all walk in, they're open til 10pm & they have radiology & QML there as well.

    The place is a complete joke. I live down the road and I have been there several times. U cannot make an appointment. The longest I have waited is 3 hours. If anybody has a baby or is pregnant they some how make it to the front of the line which is terrible when other people have been waiting for hours. Just about everytime I have had to ask where am I in the que? I did this one time the staff said I was next and then another person got to go in front of me. I would NOT recommend going there

    I signed up just to able to say DO NOT GO HERE!! Worst Doctors Surgery I've ever seen, and thats if I've managed to see a doctor at all, and I don't appreciate being told 'You'll be kicked out after hours'. They are the worst, do not go here please!

    This is a free doctors surgery... you're going to have to wait a long time, thats a no brainer. If you dont want to wait, book and appointment elsewhere and pay for it. Unless its an emergeny, there is no prioritising of patients, which is fair enough. No-one wants to have been sitting there for 3hrs to see someone who just walked in get seen first just because they kicked up a stink and made a lot of noise about how "sick" they are. The longest ive had to wait is 3.5hrs, with the shortest being about 30mins. For the most part, the doctors there a good.

    I find this medical centre to be fine, yes sometimes you have to wait a fair bit but thats because there is heaps of patients waiting to be seen.All but one of the doctors i have seen have been great. I'd be happy for all you people complaining to go somewhere else, will cut down on my waiting time. The only thing i would complain about is the staff being a tad rude when you politely ask them questions.

    Worst medical centre EVER! Recently went for a pap smear and needed a referral. Had procedure done, went to claim back on medicare....... Can't get a refund on my $390 so I'm out of pocket for them not checking their procedures properly. How does this happen???
    When I call and leave messages and ask for the management to call me back, i get nothing..........so utterly blown away at their lack of unprofessionalism! Still waiting for this to be sorted out after 4 weeks!
    Will NEVER EVER go back ! Worst experience ever so much of my time has been wasted trying to rectify THEIR stuff up!!!!
    Do yourself a favour, find yourself another medical centre.

    Absolute WORST service I have ever experienced in my life. My first visit I went with extremely bad stomach pain that was so bad it was causing me to pass out. I was given pain killers and told it was just hormonal and to go home. The pain continued and got worse each time, so I went back to my normal doctor. Turns out I had endometriosis which if left untreated can cause infertility, so I would DEFINITELY NOT recommend anyone go here to seek medical advice.

    I also went to the dentist there and was advised I needed one filling on one of my front teeth. The filling colour was a) 5 shades darker than my natural tooth colour, b) I could actually fit my nail underneath the filling and lift it up, 3), the pain increased, until I finally decided to go back to my regular dentist who had to replace the filling. Sometimes spending that bit of money is totally worth it.
