Westpoint Medical Practice

Been there a couple of times. Very easy to get a same day appointment. Waited maybe half an hour in the waiting room (not long in comparison to other practices). In particular, an older male doctor I saw was very good: efficient and presented several treatment options. I did see a female doctor the first time I went there and did not like her bedside manner not her attitude towards mental illness. I have requested not to see her again. But overall I would recommend the practice and most of the doctors.

Have been a few times now to visit one of the male doctors, after having a less than ideal appointment with a female doctor. I have been told that one of the female doctors available is fantastic but due to her own personal commitments is not taking on any more patients, unfortunately. The doctor I have had appointments here has been thorough, pleasant and polite. He is happy to chat about any concerns you might raise. As a young woman I wanted to err towards other female doctors but have found it's not worth it. The nurses at this practice are also very experienced and go the extra mile to assist (important when you're a nursing student getting immunisations ready for placement).

DO NOT VISIT, SEEK A SECOND OPINION. Girlfriend visited. Was seen by a Female, Indian doctor (ethnicity has nothing to do with it, simply saying so it's easier for people to identify her). She refused to prescribe contraception (the pill), laying a massive guilt trip on my girlfriend regarding her 'choices'. Absolutely none of the doctor's business. Then proceeded to say a face wash would fix her facial hair issue that was due to polycystic ovaries and that she would 'just have to learn to live with' her testosterone imbalance. JUST HAVE TO LEARN TO LIVE WITH IT. This is a blatant, ignorant lie. Apparently medical licences are coming out of weetbix boxes now at this practice. Terrible.
