For one thing, it's open 'til 8 pm on weeknights and it opens on saturday mornings, meaning you don't have to take time off work to consult a doctor. They also have a service which allows you to book your appointment online, which is handy as the phone is often engaged. Since moving into the area in June, I've always found it easy to get an appointment within a couple of days. The first time, I wanted advice on vaccinations I would need to travel to China and got an appointment that afternoon. I was seen by a lovely nurse who advised me on the vaccines I'd need, worked out the cheapest way for me to get them, and administered them there and then! When I went to consult a doctor, I found him attentive and friendly, which put me at my ease immediately. There's a chemist right next door too, making it easy to get your prescriptions. If you need a doctor in Wandsworth, this is the place to go!

Completely unethical membership team…read more I originally signed a 3-month membership. At the end of this, I decided I might renew. The membership person told me I could transfer to their Diamond membership (1-year, rolling) and pay a transfer fee so that my 1-year membership would be effective from my original join date (on the 3-month membership). This sounded a good idea. Pay a £10 transfer fee so that I could be on a 1-year membership that would end (so long as I cancelled it in time) about the time I planned to move out of the area. The membership guy gave me the date I had to cancel by (25 August) if I didn't want to roll my membership onto another year (and, basically, have to pay for an entire new year's membership whether I liked it or not - something a lot of people get stuck with when they sign on to Virgin Active gym memberships, but I was sure I wasn't going to get duped by this, having been very careful with all the Ts and Cs, getting verbal confirmation of everything before I signed on the dotted line). I put this cancellation date in every calendar and diary I had just so that I wouldn't forget. I happily went about my business. 25 August approaches, and I fill out cancellation forms online. No one calls me. I call Wandsworth Virgin Active to cancel, and they tell me I should come in. I make the special trip out to Wandsworth - for I do not live there anymore - to cancel and I'm told my membership isn't due to expire until December and that no one can resolve my issue for me since the membership team all went home. Um, no. I call in the next day to speak to a membership person, Angelina. All she does is speak over me in a monotonous, bored tone of voice for 10 minutes, telling me that I was given the wrong information and that a verbal agreement isn't the same as a written agreement. I ask her to find my original signed agreement and see what's written on it when she says she's 'looking at my agreement' and I find she's really only looking at their electronic records. And she says she will. Yeah, fucking right, she will. She says I should just send in proof that I have moved out of the area and that they will forward it on to their head office to make a decision about the remainder of my agreement. I told her I'm cancelling my Direct Debit because I'm not paying them another dime, and I don't care if it goes to a debt collector because they are a completely shady, unethical company. I could send them proof of my address changing, but that is BESIDE THE POINT. It's shady, Richard. SHADY. Branston, I expected more of you.

I bought a trial pass for this gym at the weekend and will not be joining. I should start by…read moresaying that I am not a fan of gyms (or exercise) and mostly went to check out the pool. This will explain number 1 on my highly personal list of Reasons I Didn't Like Virgin Active, Wandsworth: 1) The gym area was full of rows and rows of smart looking exercise equipment, all arranged over one enormous hellish open-plan floor, with zones notionally marked out by paths which zigzagged around the space like a PE maze from my nightmares. It is like some mental workout factory full of sweating people jogging on machines, bending weirdly on mats and receiving shouty personal training. My eyes! My eyes! Too much to take in, and I think I'd prefer a more intimate little local gym with walls if I was to join one. I can see that it might be quite funky and motivating if you were that way inclined though. 2) The entrance is via a petrol-stinky multi story car park. 2) The staff when I visited were all incredibly rude and inefficient. 3) It all felt a bit cheap, corporate and impersonal. The pool was small but clean and pleasant enough. I appreciated the lounging chairs, sauna, steam room and jacuzzi. If you ring ahead it's £7.50 for a day pass, so with all the spa facilities, snazzy gym equipment and a cafe, this is a bargain worth trying. However, I didn't like the vibe of this place at all, so as they say on Dragon's Den, "I'm out".

I am a 35 year old male. I suffer from chronic back pain for more than ten years. This is a result…read moreof a spine injury I had when I was 21. The pain in my back comes and goes and often my muscles get so stiff in my neck that I can hardly turn my head. A friend of mine recommended trying acupuncture this is how I decided to go for a treatment with Karla. I was sceptical about it as I normally believe in the traditional methods although I thought I would give it a go and see what results I get. After the treatment I felt relaxed and I could realise how much less tension I have in my back muscles. I walked with ease and my posture has changed. Sitting in the office for a whole day is lot less problematic than it was before. I am pleased with the results and would recommend Karla to anybody who has similar problems to mine. She was caring during the treatment, constantly communicated and asked for my feedback after every move she made. I thought I would feel pain when the needles penetrate my back. For my biggest surprise out of the 18 needles in total I had, I could only feel one. I am glad I decided to try this service and looking forward to the following treatments. Nature Heals Is well recommended.

I've always been happy with all the doctor's there, they are pretty efficient and friendly, which is what you want.

I have now signed up with another GP Practice in the area and will be sad not to see these doctors again but my overall personal experience of using this practice is not good when it comes to booking appointments or receiving self referrals for my Illness which have never been forthcoming.

It was a very quick labour, as my dad says: I've never had a lot of patience! Anyway, a few years ago I had to undergo quite a scary surgery on my throat and for some reason I sought comfort in the fact I was referred to St George's Hospital for the big op. I had an amazing surgeon, Mr Williamson, some brilliant (and one gorgeous) student interns and the most fantastic, hard-working and comforting nurses EVER on the wonderfully named Florence Nightingale ward. I was in for three days and had to share my ward with all men, not nice, but they thoughtfully put me by the window and kept my curtain closed so I could have my privacy. The ward was clean and although I really hated the food the nurses were usually happy to give me extra yoghurt to make up for it. Mr Williamson was a fabulous surgeon and although I lost my voice for six weeks it eventually came back and everything worked out well (some may consider that length of silence from me a blessing anyway). This hospital houses some amazing staff and the amount of crap the nurses have to endure daily and the hours they work in comparison to their pay is shameful. Especially when you look at how much other people are paid in jobs much less significant! Thank you to the nurses on the Florence Nightingale ward for giving me comfort and looking after me so well during the most frightening time of my life.
