    I've never been one to gush about doctors surgeries - mainly because my past experiences haven't…read morebeen great. But I am currently in love with my new doctors surgery. I am an extremely infrequent visitor to the doctors and like most men I tend to let things get excruciating before I finally admit that I need to see a doctor. With this in mind I wasn't actually registered with a doctor it had been so long since my last visit. So just before Christmas I decided to get registered somewhere close to where I lived. I firstly went to a practice at the bottom of the Antrim Road which resembled a prison, luckily for me they weren't registering new patients, so I wandered further up the road and came to Salisbury Medical Practice. The practice itself resembles an old victorian manor house, welcoming, grand and warm. The doctors and staff evoke the same feelings. I went in to the practice on my first visit and to be honest I didn't even expect to be able to register but to my surprise they asked me to come back that afternoon to new patient registration (Thursday's). Once registered which was a simple process I was then able to book an appointment. To my complete and utter shock I was able to get one the next morning at 10am - Let's put this in to perspective. In 24 hours I was registered, booked and seen by a nurse and doctor. I can not recommend this practice enough - highly professional and caring. Easily the best medical experience of my life. For anyone worried about me, it's just a football injury!

    This has been my GP practice for almost 20yrs now, the surgery has evolved during that time into…read morethe slick operation it is today. Routine appointments are often booked up well in advance but they have a triage system whereby when you phone in the morning you receive a call back from either one of the GPs or the Nurse Practitioner who will discuss your symptoms and decide how soon you need to be seen, appointments are kept specifically for this purpose. I have lost track of how many GPs actually work here but there are 6 consulting rooms around the main waiting area at the back, a small room opposite a treatment room & a larger treatment room beside reception. Most staff are polite, friendly & helpful. Self service check in allows for quick check in and a reduction in queues at reception. You can register for online services too which allows you to securely book/cancel appointments and order repeat prescriptions. You can nominate a local pharmacy to collect your prescriptions too to save a journey, very handy service indeed.

    A superb GP surgery which is situated on lower Ormeau Road. The practice area covers a 10 mile…read moreradius surrounding the clinic and caters for postcode areas BT6, BT7 and BT8. A few years ago when I lived nearby I attended Ormeau Health Centre as my local GP Surgery. As with all Surgeries these days, getting an appointment unfortunately proved tricky, with waits of up to a few days or even weeks on occasion. Thankfully though, they did offer a convenient telephone line whereby you could ring and speak to a Doctor or order prescriptions. You can also book appointments online and order repeat prescriptions 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week via their website. Plus Ormeau Health Centre have a travel clinic if you need to get jabs for your holidays. I always found the Receptionists, Nurses and Doctors friendly, helpful and professional. I would give this clinic a full 5 star rating if it weren't for the long waiting times before obtaining an appointment. Plus only allowing 10 minutes per patient for a Doctors appointment feels very rushed. However I think this is an issue with the Health Service overall (or our politicians and government) rather than this particular clinic, which I always found excellent.

    Great g.p. especially with kids! Chemist is also close by with car parking available. Waiting times…read moreare not as long in comparison to other places I have been. The chemist would usually have a display table on show which changes every month. For example today was smoking awareness and the benefits of quiting the help and information that is available to anyone wanting to quit and example nicotine packs to help tou choose the right approach.

    Ormeau Park Surgery has been my port of call for about ten years now when feeling sicky bad. Like…read moremost people who register with doctors' surgeries, this was the closest one to my house and I didn't have any particular reason or recommendation for going there. It's the NHS, you're not going to get a vastly different service by going to the surgery further down the road instead. I've been pretty happy with the level of care here, having gone there for everything from basic antibiotic prescriptions to check ups to managing longer-term sicky badnesses. My doctor is generally Dr Cheyne, and I saw Dr Dean for a bit too who has now retired. Both have been very professional and helpful, and I never felt rushed when going there as can happen with some doctors. Dr Cheyne is always going on at me to give up smoking, but no-one's perfect, even doctors. Where I'd really recommend this clinic is for the exams nurse who does smear tests and general checkups for us ladies. As most women and indeed a lot of men will know, this is often the source of squealed embarrassment stories shared among a group of girls on a night out after the seventh or so cocktail. No need for embarassment here - the nurse is truly lovely and even the most reticent should find this a relatively easy experience. Apologies for the tmi, anyone who's eating dinner while reading this, but well, she really is that good so if there's anyone out there a bit squeamish about the whole thing, do register here. My social duty/elderly nagging over for this review, I'll turn to what I don't like about this surgery, which is the waiting time to get through. Often getting to speak to a receptionist means over an hour or even two ringing back every few minutes, which is not good when you have tonsilitis and are feeling like crap. One receptionist in particular really seems to think it's her job to prevent any patients bothering the doctors - she told me once when I had to get injuries documented that I could just tell the doctor about them over the phone rather than coming in to be examined. That would have gone down well with the compensation lot - 'Yes, I've got, em, three, no two, broken legs, and a broken arm, and I keep lapsing into unconsciousn...' The surgery recently did a major survey about this and the results are up in the waiting room, so hopefully things should improve soonish. Dratted NHS. (But brilliant as a whole, so keep your mitts off, Cameron.)
