The centre houses a number of different practices and is really clean and modern in decor and outlook. They have recently installed computers to allow you to check in without queueing to speak to the receptionist and the computer system works really well. Waiting times are usually short and the practice nurse is friendly and considerateif you have to go to a doctors may as well be this one!

I've been able to either speak to someone on the phone or get an emergency appointment to see someone quickly. They also have early morning appointments before 8am which is great for those of us who have a full time job but you will need to book these in advance. So, great health centre and fortunate to be registered here.

I have been registered at this medical practice for 2 years and have had very mixed service. When…read moreyou make an appointment, it will be with any of the GPs, unless perhaps it is a follow up appointment and you specify whcih doctor you need to see. Without naming names, there is one doctor I have seen twice that is unfriendly and didn't seem interested in helping me at all. In contrast, I have since seen a different doctor who was very friendly, thorough and good at explaning things. I have also found the nurses great too. There is a self check-in screen, which is great, as it means you don't have to wait for reception staff to be free. You just click a few buttons and then take a seat in the waiting room. I have found the doctors tend to be running 10-20 minutes over time and the nurses more punctual. It is quite hard to get appointments outside 9-5 business hours. There is only one day a week that is open for extra early appointments, but these are usually booked well in advance. There is an NHS physiotherapy and podiatry service connected to the medical centre too. I have had physiotherapy here, which has been a good experience.

It actually looks like a small hospital more than GP clinic and takes in quite a few local practices. I booked an appointment with my clinic as usual for a blood test arrived a little bit early seeing as it was my first visit. There's plenty of parking and even though the carpark looked full, there was people constantly coming and going so I was able to get a spot. Inside there's a large foyer area and cafe, and you just need to check the signs for where your GP practice is now located. There's 5 different GP practices and they all operate separately so it isn't really too different from how it was before, just in a more modern building. There's other services too, like podiatry, physiotherapy, children's services, adult mental health services, speech therapy, district nursing, health visiting and social work (taken from the website). On my way out, I popped to the cafe and was impressed by the prices and selection - I got a chocolate crunchie slice and the staff were really friendly. I really like this new building - it's about 5 minutes closer to my house and is really well set up. My only grizzle is that I couldn't get the free wifi to work but that's not the end of the world!

Professional, relaxed, quiet, confidential…read more The waiting room is the hottest place on Earth but being set in a bit Georgian townhouse you don't feel the same unjust seediness and clinical vibe that is normally associated with sexual health or family planning. Everything is well organised and even though waiting times seemed to be a little a off (I turned up for an open clinic and I was first in, but still had to wait over an hour) I was seen by medical staff who were knowledgeable and genuinely caring. Not every contraception is right for every person, so if you're wanting a change I recommend this place, will take "patients" of any age unlike other clinics around Edinburgh.

I went to the Dean Terrace walk-in clinic in Edinburgh and I explained to the nurse that I had a…read morewart I was worried about, and without making eye contact she told me to drop me kilt. She was sitting down, and I was standing up. She stared at me bits for a moment much like the way that people squint and look over the top of their glasses, as if she was studying a piece of art. "I'm having problems locating it", she said. I told her it was on the side of my hand. "Oh, pull your kilt back on then" she said. She then told me that most cases of warts to come into that clinic were of a sexual nature. I already knew that, but I just wanted to show off me knob.
