Dr Eisman always greets with a smile She is very informative and very relaxed and easy to speak to Very nice Dr
Was great to have the option for video call, I feel it was a relatively similar appointment to what would have been completed in person which is helpful when not able to travel
Samantha provided clear advise and made me feel very comfortable and confident in my treatment options
Dr Sam is so approachable, helpful and clearly cared about my individual circumstances. I felt very supported.
I was very pleased that the doctor spoke; the explanation was clear, straightforward, and simple enough for anyone to understand quickly.
Dr Eisman was amazing! She listened, asked so many questions and genuinely made me feel heard.
Dr Eisman is always welcoming and professional. She gives you time and explains everything.
1/pre consult photography Timely, pleasant , professional, chatty 2/ consult with Dr Eisman Friendly, listened, helpful ,professional, inspires confidence. 1 hour parking in surrounds is tricky. There are few 2 hr spots in front. Not Sinclairs fault. Had I parked with time to arrive 10 mins early to allow for photographs, allow for consult some minutes late( absolutely reasonable and Dr Eisman apologised) Include for non rushed consult, time to book review and pay and walk back to car this would have easily extended beyond the hour and possibly attracted a fine. Thinking laterally. Could Sinclair negotiate with council to have say eg 30 mins grace period on 1 hr spot and provide a printed note OK’d by council for the window ( snail mail or print at home), to avoid angst and fines. Sincerely Satisfied patient
