My son made an appointment with a specific doctor at 3.30, after waiting for over an hour (4.30) we…read morechecked only to find that he was so far behind that he was only up his 2pm appointment and would probably be waiting anywhere up to another hour. There was an elderly gentleman who was also checking to see how much longer he would be waiting and he has been there 4 hours, while another patient was told after waiting for over an hour that his dr had left for the day. Seriously unorganized, I can understand that some appointments can take longer but these waiting times are ridiculous and it seemedas though it was across several doctors.

I have experienced much better care at other clinics. If you need a sick certificate or a basic…read moreprescription they may be able to help you out, but there are much better alternatives to choose from. My practitioner was Dr. Emilie Staehr who was nice initially but comes across as a very transactional doctor. Don't go in to an appointment expecting more than a 10 minute discussion. As a last resort, I'm sure there are worse clinics out there- but I would recommend seeking treatment elsewhere for anything ongoing and if you have the time there are plenty of clinics in the area which offer bulk billing. -Michael

After years of being a loyal patient I have finally had enough. It has been becoming worse and…read moreworse over the last couple of years. There is not even a hint any more of doctors caring about patients or even listening to symptoms, just how quickly they turn over. The staff are rude and impatient. As for the waiting times.. !!!

I wish I could give this zero stars…read more For a few months I was suffering from mould allergies in a house we were renting in prospect and I was forced to come here quite often. Sometimes the wait was two hours, sometimes almost three PAST the appointment you booked one time finding three other people had been booked for 9 and waiting back after closing to all get served (10.30 was when I finally saw someone from memory). The gps are obviously under some comission based setup because they rush you through without offering any advise, cant communicate very well and with the average time I spent in there five minutes or under they must have been under the pump. Only found one great gp there who reffered me on to how to deal with my rental situation but that was the only shining light in months of going there. I got prescribed the wrong sleeping tablets and was eventually pushed to taking time off of work to go to a much further but better medical centre (trinity). Last resort only!!

While I can't speak for the health facilities here myself, I can let you in on a little secret…read more The Burnside War Memorial Hospital is more than just a health facility - it also is home to some of the loveliest, greenest gardens in the area, which anyone can enjoy. Most people think that the huge, leafy gardens are for patients only, but they're also for members of the general public. Very few people know about it, which means that the gardens are usually very peaceful and quiet. With huge palm trees, lush lawns, flowers aplenty and beautiful covered areas, it's an idyllic spot for a sunny afternoon or picnic - it;s especially beautiful in Autumn. The only downside is that there aren't as many facilities as other parks (no bbq's etc). Keep it quiet you guys!

Last time I had to stay in hospital, I was 4, and I was in to have fake teeth wired into my gums…read morebecause my baby teeth hadn't come through properly. That episode in my life left me with a phobia of the dentist (to this day the smell still gets me), as well as an occasional recurring dream of the dentist holding up the scariest cuddly toy of all time above me whilst I was knocked out by the gas. So, when I recently ruptured my Achilles and had to go in for surgery, I was (hopefully) understandably a little bit nervous, and more than a little hopeful that I wouldn't come away from my second stay in hospital with any lasting psychological scarring. I entered St Andrews at 6.55am, reported to the extremely friendly reception staff and was admitted into the hospital and taken up to my room. Happily my private health insurance warranted me a private very spacey room, where I was prepped up for surgery by more very friendly nurses. After Surgery I woke in recovery and after talking jibberish about Harvest Box nuts to a nurse for a couple moments, passing out, waking up this time slightly more coherently, and being given the all clear I was returned to my room and immediately handed a delicious ham and salad sandwich, but more incredibly - a small Dixie Cup of delcious Golden North ice cream which I think stands as probably the best thing I've ever eaten. The following night and morning passed in a blur of medication, hourly obs, some actually quite tasty hospital food, visits from family and friends - but the enduring memory I have is that of the kindness of the nurses. No matter what hour of day or night they were there, and not just there in a token kind of way. In the end I shouldn't have worried about leaving St Andrews with psychological scarring - all I left with, was a repaired achilles (and a sweet moon boot) and a couple new friends.

How can you not give a service that saves lives five stars and the Red Cross have been doing since…read moreforever. I first came here as a kid with my Mum who would donate whole blood once every three months. Things have changed now and you can donate plasma once a month now. You can even keep track of there mobile services that travel all over Adelaide metropolitan area. I have donated ever since I was able, this being the ripe old age of 16. The wonderful volunteer staff, all of who average around 70 years young, will seve you a treat for your service at the end of your donation. This includes a very generous allowance of a Coopers Pale Ale, but they have soft drinks and juices. Get them on a good day and you can get yourself a sandwich or a piece of cake. This depends on what has been prepared for the day. I can never go past the cheese and biscuits though.

The Australian Red Cross Blood Service always needs blood donors so if you don't have a needle…read morephobia, get on in to Pirie Street and give them some of the red stuff. People keen to donate blood should be aware there are some restrictions on who can and can't give blood so to find out if you're eligible, go to the Australian Red Cross Blood Service's website and take their quick online quiz. A few facts to convince you about the importance of donating ... Australians need over 26,000 blood donations each and every week. When you consider that a single donation can potentially save three lives it becomes all the more significant. Giving blood will take around one hour of your time, no financial outlay and your donation may mean there are three people walking around happy and healthy, thanks to you. Once you've donated, your own blood volume will be completely restored within 24 - 48 hours. Whether you blood type A, B, O or AB, all blood groups will be a match for someone in need. Parking can be tricky in the city but there is some parking set aside for donors. You need to make an appointment to give blood and the website is the best way to do that. As they say ... give blood, give life.
