Dr Stephen Cole

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

I am deeply grateful for the care we received from Dr Stephen Cole. I could not recommend Dr Cole and his team more highly. During my pregnancy, a long antenatal hospital admission, and post-birth recovery, I felt incredibly supported and cared for during what was an extremely stressful time with a number of complications. After a long journey to fall pregnant, I anticipated a high-risk pregnancy, but not for the reasons that ultimately presented themselves. For that reason, I would strongly encourage anyone to consider booking with an experienced and highly specialised obstetrician like Steve. The reviews I had read on Google and Doctify, along with Steve’s website, are what led me to book my first appointment with him. I now feel very fortunate to be able to share my own experience to help others making such an important decision. The person I read about and felt through the voice on his website (and the team who support him) is exactly who and what I experienced. The entire team truly goes above and beyond in a way I’ve never experienced. It’s clear this is not just a job to them, they deeply care. I felt genuinely heard and supported by every member of the team I interacted with. From arranging additional scans and appointments to patiently answering every query, their care and diligence helped save our pregnancy. We truly believe we would not have our precious daughter, Hazel, if it weren’t for Steve and the exceptional team he has built around him. The expert medical care, dedication, generosity, compassion and patience I received from Steve is something I will always remember and be grateful for. Even with an emergency C-section at 30 weeks gestation, the birth of our daughter was perfect and beautiful. I’ve had my fair share of difficult medical experiences leading up to this point, and Steve has restored my faith that there really are doctors you can trust completely with your health and wellbeing. Throughout the pregnancy it genuinely felt like we were a little team, and I also greatly appreciated how included my husband was in that journey. If we are fortunate enough to have another baby, there is no one else I would want as my obstetrician. A truly remarkable doctor and lovely human being, supported by a team of equally compassionate and caring midwives, support staff and physiotherapist - Linsey, Wendy, Eliza, CJ and Laura. Thank you will never feel like enough.

Harbour Spine Surgeons

Orthopaedic Surgery

We arrived at the practice and filled out the forms and waited for the appointment. going into the appointment I was rather dissatisfied as none of my previous documents had been sent to the specialist. this made it very hard to get any progress done with my pain and condition. the specialist told me to give him a week or two and he will find the documents and call me back to figure out why i have a constant pain in my neck and hands. upon the call recently, he further told me he didnt find any of the old documents and that he couldnt help at this moment. He said none of the other specialists had got back to him and that he needed more time. Additionally I felt belittled and insignificant as the specialist asked me what would i want to achieve with him, knowing I have previously stated that i am in chronic pain and i want to atleast reduce pain by 50% and also be a bit more mobile.

Brisbane South Private Hospital

Gynaecology, Dentistry, + 6 more

The staff and nurse are mostly lovely and friendly, especially the anensthtic assistant nurse, she was so lovely and made sure I was comfortable as I was the first time to have a surgery which need to put me in sleep. Overall. I am happy with the all the staff. Just the wait time is bit too long to go to the surgery. My preferred time was 10.30am, however, I was being told it changed to 9.30am the day before which made me have to organise my daughter drop off time urgently. However, when I checked in at 8.35am, I was waiting more than one hour, it turned out my surgery time was nearly 10.30am...then why bother to ask me to come so early??? This is the only thing I wasn't really happy about it.

Dr Michelle Smigielski

General Surgeon

Dr Smigielski has been my doctor for a few years now, and I honestly couldn’t ask for better care. She has always been so kind, patient and genuinely invested in my health and wellbeing. No matter what I’ve gone in for, I’ve felt listened to, supported and never rushed. She takes the time to explain everything clearly and makes you feel completely comfortable. It’s rare to find a doctor who not only has incredible knowledge, but also such a caring and compassionate nature. I’m so grateful to have had her support over the years and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a doctor who truly cares.

North Western Vascular - Moonee Ponds

Vascular Surgery

Dr Bell and his team provide one of the most professional, welcoming, and well-organised practices I have experienced. Every interaction has been polite, attentive, and genuinely caring, creating a very comfortable environment for patients. I have seen Dr Bell on two occasions over the past 10 years and have consistently found him to be highly professional, authentic, and guided by strong values. His pricing is very reasonable and reflects a genuine commitment to patient care. I would highly recommend Dr Bell and his team to anyone seeking a trusted and professional practitioner.

Dr Oscar Brumby-Rendell

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I couldn't recommend Oscar any more than with the highest accolades. From the first time I stepped in his rooms he was well prepared with his knowledge on my issues, and proceeded to explain and show me with visual aids in a clear and easily understandable manner. A video of my actual procedure with explanation was sent the same day after my procedure, followed by a visit from him. I highly recommend him, his caring professionalism and skill shines through and proof was how well I pulled up afterwards as well.

Australian Cardiovascular Specialists

Cardiology

I have been very happy with my experience at my two previous appointments. However, I was very annoyed on my first visit when I had an Echo test booked at 9.45 and an ECG booked 10.30. Only to be told on the day that the cardiologist had decided he wanted me to have the ECG today prior to my appointment with him. I had rearranged my day around the appointment, which not only affected me, it affected others. I was both annoyed and confused as to why I wasn’t advised of this prior to the appointment.

Maryvale Private Hospital

Gastroenterology, Gynaecology, + 19 more

10/10 everyone was lovely, friendly and pleasant. No complaints whatsoever. The only issue was being called after I’d left hospital because I hadn’t paid a bill. A bill that I had no idea was even payable prior to leaving as my nurse walked me out the hospital straight past the front desk and no mention at any time a bill was to be paid before I left. The girl who made the call was quite demanding even though I was more than happy to pay.

Thrive Fertility

Fertility Medicine

My husband and I had the greatest experience from our initial engagement till now. Dr Sascha was informative, allowed us the time to ask as many questions as we needed and provided a warm and welcoming environment. The team, including nurses, embryologists and reception staff were also very welcoming and supportive. My husband and I could not thank the team enough for all the support they had provided us.

Precision Upper GI Surgery

General Surgery

I expected a little longer appointment with the Specialist - I felt he was in a rush to leave because he had to assist with surgery (he received a call during my appointment) I definitely don’t think it is worth $280. Just my honest opinion. Specialist was ok, however I would have liked to be given an opportunity to ask more questions. But overall the experience was ok. Reception was fantastic & helpful

Retina & Macula Specialists - Miranda

Ophthalmology

The reception staff are exceptionally efficient courteous and friendly. However the Orthoptists run ridiculously behind time. Every appt this happens. Last apt I sat for one hour before being called in to have the prep prior to seeing Dr Nothling. Really frustrating. My time is important, I care for family members and I hate just wasting so much time due to the Orthoptists inefficiency.

Dr. Adrian Maher

Gastroenterologist

I’ve been struggling with pain for years, and Dr Maher is the first medical professional that I felt actually listened to me. Came up with a treatment plan and handled my existing screening procedures. Feel confident that I’m on the path to getting some relief. Could not recommend him more, especially if you’ve been struggling to feel heard.

Dr Michael Wei

Ophthalmologist

. He is an amazing surgeon, and I had complete confidence in him throughout the entire process. I was quite terrified about having the procedure done, but he was incredibly reassuring and supportive. All the staff in his practice were also wonderful and made the experience so much easier. Dr Wei truly is an artist at what he does.

Dr Sean Suttor

Orthopaedic Surgeon

As per my previous comments. I was very grateful that Dr Suttor was willing to see me within a reasonable amount of time, over zoom as I live in a remote community. He understood the issue that I was facing, and took my concerns and my goals on board. I felt listened to, but also had confidence in his advice and directions.

Dr Ahmad Alrubaie

Gastroenterologist

I had a very positive experience at this clinic. The doctor was professional, knowledgeable, and took the time to listen and explain everything clearly. The receptionist was also very friendly and welcoming, making the whole visit smooth and comfortable. Highly recommend this practice.
