Dr. Gerard Bourke

Orthopaedic Surgeon

I had surgery at S.C.U.P.H on 12th September to correct a problem with my right foot. Because I live about 3 and a half hours away from Dr. Bourke's practice, I had to travel to see him and then I had to travel to have the surgery done, however, because my daughter lives close by, that wasn't much of a problem. I found Dr. Bourke to be knowledgeable and very honest and direct. I was a little skeptical because I had had a similar procedure done 15 years ago, and procedures and treatments have changed since then. I had also seen one terrible review of Dr. Bourke, but the overall majority of the reviews were good. Therefore, I decided to have the procedure done by Dr. Bourke. I was very pleased that he agreed to consult via telehealth for my follow up appointments via photographs etc. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble for Dr. Bourke and he was always very accommodating and polite. My foot is healing well and the problem I had is considerably improved. The outcome is a little different to the other foot that I had done 15 years ago, but it was done with a totally different procedure. Dr. Bourke's receptionist Kelly is very efficient and all the arrangements were seamless. Thank you Dr. Bourke. I wish you all the best for the future.

Offspring Medical - Hawthorn

Paediatric (Pediatric) Surgery, Paediatrics/Pediatric (Children's Doctor)

Could not fault Meredith she is amazing but the whole practice is not set up to help the customer. There is no hi caps meaning the parent of the potentially sick child has to make sure they keep the invoice to spend more time at home on admin. Then there are the amazingly long wait times if you call. Why would you not outsource that. As a parent of two children I have no longer than about 3mins of time in between one of the kids needing me for something. When I first called I had to spend 30mins on the phone. There is no excuse possible for your practice to have similar wait times to Australia Post. Your reception team seem to move at a snails pace and usually two of them will join in on a conversation with a client. You have enough staff to be handling the call volume. If not outsource it. Thirdly you are a paediatric specialising medical clinic- why do you have ONLY stairs at the front door- surely you see many babies in prams and have a higher percentage of clientele who would need a ramp to get in. All of these things I have listed seem to be common sense which is why they frustrate me so much.

Dr Ruben Rajan

General Surgeon

From first meeting Dr Rajan I felt safe in his care. His explanations were easy to understand, I knew I could trust him and I was right in doing so. I had a sigmoid bowel resection. Dr Rajan made the whole process so easy. Robotic surgery is amazing. I was walking and eating a soft diet day 1. Walking around the hospital corridors day 2. Home Day 4. My recovery has been amazing. I felt so safe throughout my care , the team that Dr Rajan works with are amazing also. I am still in amazement of how great my recovery has been. On discharge Dr Rajan explained everything to me and I had no fear of his support diminishing after discharge. Dr Rajans enthusiasm regarding what he does really did play a big part in my remarkable recovery. I would whole heartedly recommend him to anyone needing this type of surgery. I have been home 3days now and my recovery is improving daily. Thank you so much Dr Rajan

I'm a very grateful to Dr. Robert Whitfield for now I'm feeling so much better and my life is almost back to normal. Thank you Dr. Robert Whitfield

Dr Malcolm Godfrey

Obstetrician & Gynaecologist

Dr Godfrey and his lovely team have guided me through two pregnancies and also losses. He is always calm, knowledgeable, and I believe the best at what he does. I always felt safe and cared for. I chose Dr Godfrey because I wanted a skilled surgeon and someone who was experienced in all areas of fertility and obstetrics. He is supported by a lonely administration team and midwife. Nothing was ever too much trouble and no question too silly.

Surgical Associates Melbourne

General Surgery

The best part of the whole experience was making the descision to consult a private specialist. Even as a pensioner it well worth the $100 out of pocket expense.. More peple shhould know about this option The aternative was was to wait 3 years + to see a consultant at the Austin. As it turnout when I had the surgery the surgeon told me afterwards I has a gangrenous gall bladder which evidently is somewhat serious.

The Glen Endoscopy Centre

Gastroenterology

I always find the staff at the Glen Endoscopy Centre friendly, professional and very efficient. Over my several visits to the centre, this has been my consistent experience. The procedures go smoothly and in a timely. The specialists are very helpful before and after the procedures and the staff are also. I would recommend the centre to anyone considering the GEC for their procedures.

Dr Krishna Bhagwat

Cardiothoracic Surgeon

Krishna explained the outcome of the operation on the heart that was easy to understand. He gave me lots of comfort on the status of my heart and the healing process …. what activities I can do and what to avoid. Thrilled that I could return to playing golf a lot quicker than the booklet indicated because of the technique he used on my chest bone. Thanks Krishna

Dr. Adrian Maher

Gastroenterologist

I was completely blown away by the level of professionalism, communication and care shown by Dr Maher. He is caring for my 89 year Mum dealing with acute cholangitis and sepsis. He and Dr Lewin were able to arrange ICU care quickly, and when mum was fit enough, an ERCP which went extremely well, clearing Mum's issue. An outstanding operator!

Dr Gina Mariano

Paediatrician

I had a telehealth appointment with Dr Gina Mariano and as always very thorough and explained everything to me. I highly recommend Dr Gina Mariano to be one of the best doctors I have ever dealt with, with any of my children. I would move mountains for her to continue to see my son which she has for the past seven years. Thank you always

Macarthur Surgical Group

General Surgery

Text directions were good in locating the practice. Receptionist was friendly, knowledgeable and polite. Appoints we’re running behind schedule but the doctor was apologetic and in turn, thorough with my appointment. My condition and all options were clearly explained and follow up treatments planned and booked in.

Dr Oscar Brumby-Rendell

Had my plate taken out of my wrist which was originally put there by Dr Oscar Brumby-Rendell. He is a very friendly doctor that makes you feel comfortable. He also contacted me after I was back home and gave me a video of my plate and how everything went. Can Highly recommend this Dr. He's is Excellent .

The Snore Fix Doctor & Family Dentistry

Dentistry

Doctor was really good with explaining in detail all aspects of my treatment- maybe extra patience with me being a little slower to grasp things quickly. He also answered all questions with patience! Explaining things several times was not a problem either.
