Whatever ailment you are suffering from, there's a chance Neal's Yard Remedies will have something to help you. A cross between a beauty shop and a herbalist, they sell aromatherapy oils, creams, butters and lotions as well as a small but powerful selection of fresh herbs and teas. They also have a great range of organic skin care products including suncreams, body scrubs and moisturisers. With flavour combinations like geranium and orange and comfrey and mallow, they also smell delicious too. The prices do veer towards the expensive but their products and knowledge are priceless.

I'm not a person who goes to the doctors often, but when I do its nice to know that you are going…read moreto get a good level of service and some consistency of care. Having lived in London for three years before moving South, I don't think I saw the same doctor more than once and getting an appointment was always a massive hassle - either having to book two weeks in advance or having to wait around in the surgery all morning to be seen. But Beaconsfield medical practice seem to have all these problems sorted. You can ring in the morning and get an appointment for that day, at a set time, and you are nearly always promptly seen. I had an allocated doctor who I have seen on nearly every visit (unfortunately, she is now off on maternity leave, but hey I can't really complain!). You can even book and order repeat prescriptions on line which saves a lot of time and hassle. Plus, the receptionists are always polite and have a smile for the customers (yes, I know, I nearly fainted...!) Downstairs there is a pharmacy so you can pick up prescriptions immediately, ideal for the elderly or less mobile patients, and they even offer a free delivery service should you require it. Its nice to find a service that takes the hassle out of life when you need it.

They also offer acupuncture and massage for those in need of loosening up.

Over the 3-4 years I've been in Brighton I have actually found myself there a fair bit, for routine appointments or more serious things, and I've had a range of experiences during my time there. The surgery itself is well laid out, comfortable and clean. The reception staff are helpful and generally pleasant, despite being very busy with the constantly ringing phones. There is an upstairs and downstairs waiting area, both of which are comfy enough. As you come into the surgery, you can check yourself in for your pre-booked appointment on the machine on the wall (under the stairs). This usually functions fine and is a smooth and easy way of letting the doctor or nurse know you're there. It also directs you to which seating area you should be waiting in, either upstairs or downstairs, so there's no confusion. The nurses I've seen here have all been wonderful. Very nice, very patient and not patronising at all. The doctors, on the other hand, are a bit of a mixed bag. I've seen a few that are a little abrupt and slightly condescending. I understand that they must have a lot of time wasters and hypochondriacs coming in (as with any doctors surgery) but it's never nice to be made to feel foolish for booking an appointment. That being said, I was once really rather ill here and I found myself getting a taxi straight from the surgery to A and E. On this visit, the staff (including the doctor) were all very attentive and not patronising in the slightest (perhaps because of my serious condition). They got me water and sent me with a handwritten letter explaining what was wrong - all very kind and professional. Since this incident I have always been treated very well in here, again perhaps because they can see from my files that I'm worth taking seriously. In terms of booking appointments, this is relatively straight-forward to do over the phone and there are usually slot available pretty quickly, especially if you express that it's an urgent thing. The appointments are also pretty on time which, as anyone who's ever been to a doctors surgery knows, can be a bit of a rarity! All in all, I like this practice. I might look at others closer to my new flat, yes, but for now, I am more than happy to stick with Albion Street Surgery. They may not be the most perfect doctors surgery in the world, but they're certainly not the worst and I'd say they were doing a pretty good job of things.

I have been a patient of Nicky's for over three years and am honestly astonished at the vast range…read moreof health problems she is able to confidently and effectively treat. I've seen other acupuncturists before and have always found it nice for general well-being (stress, sleep issues, stiffness in the body from too much computer work). Her electro-acupuncture treatment approach stands out. She is particularly good at investigating beyond the surface problem to working out the real cause so the patient can make changes in habits and they don't have to keep coming back for the same thing. The use of electrodes is quite pleasant and seems to speed recovery so you need fewer sessions. You also get good guidance on a healthy diet for your type according to Chinese medicine that helps to boost energy. Nicky has helped me overcome everything from heavy colds, sprained and puffy ankles, MS symptoms and even a veruca! All this has been very impressive but what has been truly life changing is that I have m had the confidence to give up medicines that were making me feel very ill and ironically contributed to the deterioration of how I walk. This confidence that acupuncture can support me far more effectively than pharmaceuticals has come gradually. My main regret is that I didn't realise this earlier in life. My fears of getting ill were causing me to take medicines that gave me a long list of unnecessary new health problems to deal with! Acupuncture is natural yet seems powerful and very preside in how it works. I'm no longer willing to put toxic chemicals into my body when the doctors dint really understand what is going on as the body does it's best to deal with them.

I went to my GP about 18 months ago and was prescribed antihistamine pills and steroid nasal sprays. I even was referred to the hospital which I attended three times and the result was....keep taking what your GP has given you! Nothing was really working even if I was taking the highest dosage of antihistamine, using the nasal sprays and doing nasal douches religiously. The last straw was when about 3 months ago I went back to the GP who prescribed me a drug that is normally given to patients with very strong asthma and the pharmacist told me that she was surprised I had been prescribed such a strong medicine for rhinitis and she went one to mention a long list of very bad side effects! I refused to take this drug and decided I had to look for some other solution that was not western medicine as I was filling my body with chemicals that were doing absolutely nothing for my condition. That's when a colleague at work suggested acupuncture and Nicky. I have had three treatments and I can finally breathe!!! I can taste food again, I can sleep, my mood and energy levels have improved dramatically! Three treatments was all it took! I went back yesterday nonetheless and will keep going for follow up treatments or whenever needed but I am overwhelmed by the positive results in just over a month. I should have gone to see Nicky much earlier instead of taking all the medicines I was ingesting. I can't recommend acupuncture and Nicky enough. It truly works, it's not painful and Nicky is a fantastic and knowledgeable professional.
