    I was fairly disappointed that I got a 35 Euro "consultation" charge slapped onto the quoted price. I wanted a specific vaccination, asked how much that was via email (50) and arranged an appointment for the next available date. I got in, sat down and was out again literally four minutes later with a printout (Travax) of advice / risks for one(!) of two countries I mentioned I'll be traveling to. By the way, when I said I don't need any printouts because I got everything I need to know from our corporate travel agency, it "was already printing anyway". While I understand that a doctors visit isn't like going to McDonalds and that consulation is very often a requirement, if it is: - not mentioned as part of the cost in the quote - for a simple and safe procedure (vacination) - there is no new information provided - every question answered with "I know" or "no thank you" - done in 4 minutes then charging for it feels akin to being surprise-charged for breadsticks at a restaurant. Again, my issue is with transparency, not the price. If the consultation is a requirement and not optional it should be part of the quoted price (and detailed on the final bill). If it is optional, as it seems, then I was never advised nor did I ask for it so that left a slighly sour taste. On a brighter note, I was called in exactly on the minute for my appointment which was a very nice surprise. edit: Changed from 2 to 3 stars. While the surprise charge still doesn't sit well with me, they are reissuing my lost proof of vaccination free of charge and the turnaround was very quick, that's nice.

    My review is for Dr Patrick Crowley from this practice. I had been a patient for over 10 years without any significant health issue until a few months ago. When I started needing him I found out he is completely unreliable and avoids responsibility at any cost. Needless to say I am moving GPs now. I do not want to grow old and depend on such a useless practitioner when I actually need help.

    Have brought my three year old here since birth. The doctors are always so gentle and professional with him, and always manage to see him promptly. He had all his vaccinations here and the nurse was excellent with him.

    I have been to there twice and last time was no different. It took 45 min to see the GP. The GP seemed under pressure, of course, the Centre was busy. He was talking fast and running around the room. My impression is, either they are taking more people that they can handle or not giving enough time between patients. The secretaries/receptionist didn't even made eye contact with me, I was just told to take a sit. Don't know if that is good or bad (According to the lady that mentioned other's comments, they were nice to her. Well, good for her!) I guess others didn't have the same experience.

    Excellent GPs and facilities! The staff is friendly at all levels, even the secretaries (according to the comments, they are not). I highly recommend this place. To book an appointment, Go on their website and secure it by paying 15€ in advance which will be deducted from the final receipt. My GP was John Crowley and was really competent and friendly. Thank you again!
