It would have been helpful to have clearer instructions as to the location of the consultation room at the Griffith St Vincent’s hospital as there was no receptionist at My late appointment. We only found the room because we needed to use the amenities and there was another Patient waiting to ask. However after finding the location I cannot recommend highly enough the professionalism, kindness and efficiency of Dr Thwin.
