Llandaff North Medical Centre currently has an open list and they welcome requests for registration…read morefrom patients living in or moving to the practice area which stretches from Whitchurch to the Canton and Riverside areas of Cardiff. You can register by bringing along your NHS medical card or completing a form available from reception. They will make a note on your records if you prefer to see a particular doctor or nurse. Something not quite right with your health? You can call the surgery or pop in to arrange an appointment to see a doctor or nurse. Appointments are available during the hours listed below. You may book an appointment up to two weeks in advance. Alternatively, if you telephone between 8am and 8:45am they can usually offer an appointment for that day. Mon:9am - 11.50am & 3.30pm - 6pm Tue: 9am - 11.50am & 3.30pm - 6pm Wed: 8.30am - 11.50am Thu: 8.30am - 11.50am & 3.30pm - 6pm Fri:8.30am - 11.50am & 3.30pm - 6pm

This is actually not the nearest doctors' surgery in relation to where I live. However all the…read morepracticing doctors here are so good that it's worth a slightly longer trip. The receptionists are also really nice, and are usually able to answer my queries over the phone. This medical center is only around 10-15 years old, and feels very modern and hygienic. The waiting area is big and comfortable, with many magazines on offer, and plenty of toys to occupy children. The only thing that annoys me about this place is that you usually have to wait at least a week for a non emergency appointment (a nasty cough can often disappear in this time), however I believe this to be a universal problem rather than solely the fault of the Llandaff North medical centre.

The new Crwys Medical Centre opened on the 5th of September 2005. It is a modern surgery that is…read moreable to provide full and comfortable facilities for all including the disabled. The surgery is situated at the top end of Wedal Road near the junction with Allensbank Road and has ample, dedicated patient parking. Making your life even easier, there is also a Pearn's Pharmacy incorporated into the building. Dr. Davies - (Male) Dr. Johnson - (Female) Dr. Everest - (Male) Dr. Quarry - (Male) Prior to September 2005, the Crwys Medical Practice had been established since the turn of the last century at 151 Crwys Road but you'll be over the moon to hear that the stain glass window panel that was in the front bay of the old building has now been installed in the waiting area of the new practice. It is all in the detail, you see. For this alone, they get an extra star.

I've never been a patient here, but a friend has and I visited the doctor with her a number of…read moretimes. It's fairly posh here, and it's nice and welcoming. It's rather a pleasant place, that feels almost like a private surgery. There's plenty of parking, a bus stop down the road and the pharmacy is in the same building which is extremely convenient. There are surprisingly few doctors considering the size of the place, but my friend never had to wait too long for an appointment. There are a few clinics, including an asthma clinic and diabetes clinic that not every doctors surgery has. As the medical centre is quite close to the Heath University Hospital, there are occasionally medical students sitting in, although you will be informed beforehand and given the option of requesting to see the doctor alone if you'd rather. This is a lovely surgery, and one of the most convenient being completely accessible for disabled patients, having great parking facilities and its own pharmacy. One of the best in the area.

Hampton House Health centre is where you go when you're feeling poorly. The key to booking an…read moreappointment is to ring either first thing at 8.45 or at 2.00. Emergencies are handled differently and the centre offers a number of other services like Chlamydia screening, travel advice, blood tests and the like. The doctors are of course incredibly concerned for your health, but sometimes this verges on preaching; I have never been here without being asked, and then subsequently told off for my drink and smoking habits. However, they are consistently effective, treating any problem you may have. I would stress again the importance of booking appointments early to avoid being turned away.

On my first appointment the doctor started messing with my medication…read more You do not get a regular doctor, instead you see different doctor's each time. This means that if you find a doctor you are comfortable with and open up honesty to, chances are that you will not see them for awhile. You have too explain everything again to a different doctor, even if you are not comfortable with that. Trying to get an appointment is awful, if you do mange to get an appointment chances are that the doctor has not shown up on time. Reorder of medication usually takes 48 hours unless they send the prescription for a signature to a doctor that is on holiday (this actually happened to me). In closing totally unorganised, unprofessional and completely bizarre. 2 stars as I am feeling generous.

Not great. I telephoned for an appointment some weeks ago and was told I had three options - phone…read morea week in advance, two days in advance or a day in advance for an appointment. My first one was booked two days in advance and it was fine. The next time I needed one I was told I needed to book a week in advance or a day - the option of two days had vanished in the space of a week. So I tried again today to get one a day in advance -only to be told to phone back tomorrow when presumably all the appointments will be taken. Do not bother with this terribly shambolic excuse for a doctors surgery. Nobody actually knows what the agreed booking timescale is.

Ty Hafan is a children's hospice which I once visited as a teenager on a religious studies trip. It…read morewas one of the strangest, saddest and most lovely experiences of my pre-adult life. Set in sprawling green surroundings, this is a beautiful place. More like a hotel than anything else. The patients' rooms are large and well-decorated. The most memorable thing about this hospice is the games room. Here they have lights and music to keep a person occupied, and everything is very well planned, thought through and executed. The staff are extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Well done Ty Hafan, please keep up the good work.

Ty Hafan…read more One of the many charity shops in Taf street Pontypridd.So you can chose your charity. Like all charity shops in the town they had much the same garments. Ty Hafan is a small shop that quite often get overcrowded. But then that's a opportunity to socialise which customers are more than willing to do, its a part of our culture after all ! The great joy in charity shops, and Ty Hafan is no exception, is to find a rare bargain ,something unusual. Shopping there the other day I found the complete series Of 'Faulty towers', a 'sit com' that is one of my favourites For 40 pence . Ok, so it was on video tape that is rapidly becoming obsolete but many people have the facility to transfer tape to disc easily. If you have this facility then there is a large selection of interesting video tapes at only 10p each. If you think this is too cheap than the ladies will willing accept a donation for a very good cause. There is also a good selection of Christmas cards at very economical prices. The men's clothing is all in very good condition and some of it is obviously new from well known shops on the high street. (I had better not give names) Perhaps a few additional words about the charity are called for Ty Hafan (Welsh for 'Haven house') is a home offering specialist care for children suffering from life -limiting conditions and also giving the whole family a source of strength and support in their tragic circumstances. The home is not a part of the NHS so receives no guaranteed funding. So Ty Hafan is well deserving of your support and custom.

Wandering inside to shelter from heavy…read morerainfall over Gloucester Road, I expected the usual racks of clothes, the usual shelf of books, the usual array of odd trinkets and tea pots. But as I stood in the doorway shaking off my umbrella, I gradually realised I had walked into a wonderland of old furniture, and big, good quality, useful furniture at that: wardrobes, shelving units, a rocking chair, a set of wicker chairs, cabinets, tables. The stock here is really amazing, and it's a huge shop, with everything displayed very well. I recommend coming to have a good rummage in this shop just for the furniture. The clothes and books and stuff - well, I can take them or leave them; they're probably better stocked in the huge Cancer Research shop just over the road. But, really, come here and see if you can't find some great piece of original old furniture to have in your home. More fun than Ikea, that's for sure!
