Perhaps it was being interrupted when answering questions, or the long silences that occurred when I wasn't interrupted, followed by a chuckle and the words, 'well, I'm not entirely sure what you were hoping to get from this session/how I can help you'. It could have also been, 'well, you could go back on X medication, if you want to.' after the mention of just how badly X medication affected me in the past and that I wasn't interested in medication. Was I supposed to diagnose myself and choose my own medication? Was I coming to a psychiatrist for a reason? Putting this review up is giving me enough anxiety as all I see is good reviews about him, how on earth did I not experience this? I feel like if I'd seen him two months earlier when I was in a far more fragile state, this session could have caused a horrific amount of trauma. There is absolutely no way I could recommend this psychiatrist to anyone, considering what I experienced. I am glad other people have had positive sessions with him, but I certainly did not leave feeling like anything positive happened; if anything, It caused more issues that I will have to talk through with my psychologist, thankfully someone I do feel comfortable with. I suppose the most important thing is, I don't have to see him again.

Not sure how to rate a Physio but here goes. I booked in an…read moreappointment to check my daughter's sore knee after she experienced pain during dancing lesson and several days of stiff looking leg. Booking was easy over the phone and we managed to get appointment for the same day The physio we booked into specialises with children and she has a lovely manner, friendly and very thorough. Our initial appointment was about 45 min and she went through different positions to ascertain the cause / extent of pain. I would come back if needed as I found the session to be value for money, thorough and insightful. Lucky for us, my daughter's pain was not serious and does not need ongoing treatment. When I left I was given a new client pack which include referral cards, which gives a friend $20 off their first session and $20 off my next session - so if you are thinking of going let me know, happy to give you the card.
