Dr Dong Li should not be allowed to see patients without a senior doctor and it should not matter how busy everyone at the hospital is. He is intellectually not equipped to hold a consultation with a patient. Lacks emotional intelligence also. "My love" is not how to address a patient in a conversation. I have left the Hospital outraged about his dismissive from of advising me as a patient, not to forget to mention that he gave me a cancer scare. Before mis-diagnosing a fibroid as cancer... might be worth asking the patient if she has experience undesired, rapid weight loss.?! I regret having seen him and can say for sure, my therapy plan or outcome would have been different, have I seen a different doctor.

Because of construction, what should've been a straightforward shot from Paddington Station became a meandering lost walk through the piss smelling side streets and alleys, but thanks to CityMapper, we eventually found it. The architecture is nice, but if you didn't know the significance of the spot, you could easily pass it without much thought. When we went, the door was partially open, so we could take a peek inside which was just a typical waiting area with seating. Finding our way back out was much easier since instead of bothering with the side streets, we went out to the main road and made our way back to Paddington Station a few minutes away.

I was referred here for treatment when the cold symptoms I had continued to worsen after 10 days. The staff were polite and efficient. The wait time to see the nurse was less than 30 minutes (mind you, this was a Monday morning in late June and not the peak of cold and flu season). The physical examination she conducted was thorough, hands-on, and certainly unlike anything I have experienced in the USA.* At first, the exam seemed too rudimentary to possibly be an effective diagnostic tool, but I was wrong. The nurse also had a significant number of questions to ask, along with inquiring as to how my specialist in Los Angeles had treated these same symptoms on previous occasions. The nurse seemed impressed by what I recounted to her, stating that the diagnostics and treatment my specialist in LA. had administered were rather advanced. Even so, I found her examination and line of questioning impressive. As it turned out, her diagnosis and prognosis were spot on. Even better, this service would have cost me at least 250 US dollars at my physician in Los Angeles, whereas it only cost me 25 pounds in the UK. Based on this one experience, I wouldn't hesitate to come here again. Hours of operation... Monday-Friday 8.00am-8.00pm Saturday-Sunday 10.00am-8.00pm (also Bank Holidays) closed Christmas Day * In America, physicians are reluctant to touch patients unless absolutely necessary, lest they be sued. Americans tend to be overly litigious.

Friendly nurses! What a relief to walk into an NHS clinic and not be greeted with either a…read moredeathstare, apathetic look, or derision. Those three describe my two previous encounters with the NHS so luckily I haven't been sick much in the last 3 years. Now to be fair, I'm actually a fan of the NHS. Sure I hate paying NI taxes as much as anyone, but I do appreciate not having to pay when I do need to use a hospital. However, I've heard the horror stories and lived in a slight fear that I may shoplift a few germs inadvertently while I'm there due to lower the spectacular conditions that result when you put too many people into too small a space and fail to provide enough funding (which has been spent on fancy ways to blow up caves). This slightly irrational fear is made worse when you are going to a walk-in clinic which in the states would be crammed with coughing, dirty, mostly homeless people who have no private medical insurance to rely on. Luckily, within 30 seconds of walking into the Soho Walk-in Clinic, my fears were put to rest. The receptionists are very friendly and patiently took me through the process of registering and explained the next few steps. The waiting room was quite spacious and turnover fairly high so everyone was spaced several seats apart. A selection of newspapers and magazines (fairly recent) were also provided in case you didn't have a phone or book to keep you occupied. The place was also very clean which is quite a feat when you are catering to sneezing and coughing invalids. After being called in for a quick screening which consisted of a few questions, I was told it would be under an hour before I saw the nurse. I should note that there are only nurses here and not full doctors so if you are seriously ill they will likely have to refer you to one of the full hospitals. However, for most things they are more than capable of diagnosing and dosing you up. About 30 minutes after the screening, I was called in to see a nurse. First off, she was hilarious. I do appreciate it when they give you a bit of banter rather than just rattling off questions in as efficient a manner as possible. While taking my blood pressure we had a bit of a chat about things and she was pretty good with explaining what she was about to do. It was also a fairly educational experience as I learned that I was borderline overdosing on paracetamol (too many Lemsip Max tablets in one day) and that it can have serious consequences like stopping your heart. Fair enough, I will follow the instructions more carefully from now on. I was diagnosed with tonsillitis in about 10 seconds flat and given penicillin right there. I definitely appreciate being dispensed drugs on site as it avoids an annoying trek and wait to Boots when you just want to feel better. My nurse was also good at explaining the importance of following the full 10 day regime despite the fact I'd likely feel fine after 3 days. If she hadn't mentioned it, I would have been very tempted to stop after a few days (I don't like taking pills) but that would have helped push along the development of a penicillin resistant strain which isn't good for anyone. Overall, I was very pleased with my experience and would definitely recommend the Soho Walk-in clinic to everyone. I'll be going there as my first stop next time I'm sick for sure!

Unfortunately they can be difficult to get into if you drop off the list like I did, as they are so popular the waiting list tends to be closed. They run a well woman clinic which was round in the prefabs out back last time I visited for my 'MOT'. Perfectly nice prefabs and the doctor I saw last time was great. I've also been on several occasions for physiotherapy. It's a busy clinic. You visit several times, and see the same person each time. They also run a 'core stability exercise class' which I was lucky enough to be referred to. I was actually sent for problems with my knees, but it helped my bad neck as well. It included a fair amount of pilates with some added help and advice. Very good and great to be prescribed it on the national health! The hospital is in an old building, which means access is sometimes a bit creative! Some of the sloping floors make getting to physio a little uncomfortable for those with achy pins! I guess that's what you pay for being in a really rather nice old building There is a café, right in the middle of the building, which I always seem to just miss. When it's open you can walk through it to get to most departments. When closed you have to go round via a partitioned off corridor down one side. So, not the most convenient building. But it has character, and I've had lots of excellent care there.

It eventually took them 1 month to make me an offer for the job. At the time of the offer, I was working in a different Hospital. I eventually signed the contract with the London Clinic and I was asked to resign from my current job at the time. After only one day from my resignation I was then contacted and told that the offer had been withdrawn and that the decision was made. From that moment everyone disappeared, no one answered my calls anymore. I found myself unemployed without any reason. I went to the office in order to understand how such a thing could happen. I was kept at the door. They didn't even let me see the person who took the decision. My all personal matter was shouted in the corridor in front of other people. Intimidate by two people , felt discriminated, extremely offended and literally kicked out. It really hurts seeing such a management. Passing from one day of constant calls and people pushing for me to start asap, to then being completely ignored. Do not work with this company. They go for the money, they only protect the client and there is no assurance at all for the employees. If you are about to sign with this company. Think twice before doing it.

Avoid this place at all costs; ask to be referred to Royal London's neurology department.
