I took a little visit to the A&E room here over a year ago because I fell from a height of 8 feet onto a concrete floor on my back and miraculously got away with just bad bruising. But because It was so painful I came here to have it checked out. Thankfully I wasn't waiting very long, under an hour i would think. The nurse who saw me was quite sympathetic when she saw my bruises and prescribed a load of codeine for me.

St Leonards is an outpatient's only hospital with a front entrance on Kingsland Road. I have in the…read morepast visited the dental service, which is NHS only, but otherwise works like a normal dental practice (it is not a drop in emergency service like at some hospitals) and is quite large. 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.

Sniff cough cough, sniff…read more... I knew the say would come when I would be feeling a little under the weather and think to write up about these guys. Basically this is a NHS walk in centre with a proper doctors surgery attached. It's a little bit of a weird building anyway, like a little portable home that has been plonked behind a large fence and had a NHS sign plonked on it. I have to say that the people who work here are lovely, you can catch them on an off day and yes if you do just walk in expect to wait 3 hours, but as far as centres like this go, this is one of the best. There is loads of waiting space and a pharmacy right next door in the Morrisons so it's super continent. There is the Brooke Road surgery about 10 minutes walk from here but it's not a patch on this place. Oh and the doctors are friendly and the nurses caring! :O)

Sorry, are we talking about the same place?

I'd recommend to anyone thinking of using this centre to avoid at all costs- there are other centres in stamford hill and stoke newington where you will be treated with a little respect and sympathy.

Good points: Free, impartial medical advice and a good team of nurses and GPs Bad points: Typically over-booked - it always takes ages to make an appointment even if it is just with a nurse, which is why I often find myself having to venture to their Thursday morning drop-in women's clinic for silly repeat prescriptions. But all in all, it is a clean effective health clinic and definitely a lot better than some other London ones I have unfortunately had the chance to experience. God, I miss my private healthcare.

There was a number plastered on the door to call. When called the phone behind the locked door rang unanswered. After inquiring again with an unresponsive reception staff a GP decided to see me and my son. She then tried to give my son vaccinations which he had already received. After pointing this out she looked at his records and apologised saying "your right hes already had these." what a complete joke. good luck residents of Bethnal Green.
