I've only had a good experience with the doctors here, especially Dr Kennedy as he seems to have a wealth of knowledge. He was able to identify a sinus issue that previous surgeries hadn't, and also referred me to an ENT specialist to address my breathing issues after a broken nose. I had since had my appointment and will be undergoing surgery under the NHS, which I'm looking forward to as I'll be able to breathe again. Highly recommend.
Dr Kennedy is a very condescending man. Went to see him about my depression, anxiety and panic attacks, and he suggested that I "go home and get a hug from my mum". And I have been diagnosed with these conditions by several other doctors, not a self diagnosis.
I have been a patient with Dr Kennedy from his Hyndland Street days and followed them up to the new practice on Byres Road. On my occasions of using the surgery I have found all the staff both medical and front of house to be very polite, professional and nothing is a bother.They run a drop in through the week that will guarantee you an appointment if you come along and wait. And in this day in age to be guranteed to see a Dr on the same day is a luxury.Would have no hesitations in reccomending this surgery at all.
I came here as a new patient. I attended a drop in surgery and waited two and a half hours to be seen (other people who came in after me were taken before me)eventually by a very young inexperienced doctor who had minor skills in bereavement. ..her only remedy was to have coucilling! Poor standards of care and support. .worst I have ever come across. ...shocking! Won't be back. ...
My experience of Ashton has been less than sub-par. It's difficult to book an appointment seeing as they will just recommend that you go to one of the drop in sessions. This is because the drop in sessions take up the vast majority of the day so there isn't much room for actual appointments. Admittedly, it is handy being able to guarantee you see a doctor on the day, however I have had to wait up to 1.5 hours to see someone. In addition, not being able to book in advance means you see a different doctor almost every time you go so if you are experiencing a long term problem then you have to explain everything over and over again. Most of the doctors I've encountered are so exhausted by seeing so many people through the drop in and preoccupied by getting through the queue of patients, that they barely give you time to communicate your problems before prescribing pills or telling you it's nothing to worry about. I had recurring issues with abdominal pain and reflux, accompanied by anxiety as a result of having no idea what was wrong. I was continually told that I was just stressed and that there didn't seem to be anything wrong. Eventually I saw a doctor who took me seriously and referred me to an expert. Turns out I have gallstones and a hiatus hernia - which should explain my symptoms. Not much meditation and relaxing breathing exercises can do to get rid of stones in your gallbladder! I was taken a little more seriously after these diagnoses, however it shouldn't take that to be respected by your GP. Overall, I wouldn't recommend going to this practice.
