Reviews
I recently had a procedure with Dr Samuel Purcell. His professionalism and friendly manner put me at ease as he explained the entire process in detail, answering any questions without hesitation. During the procedure, he was attentive and considerate, ensuring that I was as comfortable as possible; which meant a lot as I personally do only try see female drs. A positive overall experience! Dr Purcell will now be the only gynaecologist I see going forward. Thank you!
Sam has been absolutely incredible throughout my entire pregnancy, delivery, and postnatal care. From the very beginning, he was proactive with scheduling appointments (including pelvic floor physio) and routine tests, and always took the time to explain next steps and answer any of our concerns (backed always by clinical evidence). This gave me so much confidence and peace of mind. His calm and supportive approach made me feel genuinely cared for every step of the way. I couldn’t have asked for a better obstetrician to guide us through this special time. Highly recommend!
Dr Sam Purcell is amazing! I honestly couldn’t recommend him more. From the very beginning, he made me feel so comfortable and supported!! like I was in the best hands possible. He’s calm, kind, and really takes the time to explain everything in a way that makes you feel confident and at ease (which is exactly what you want when you’re growing a tiny human!). He delivered my beautiful baby girl, Awera, and I’ll always be so grateful for the care and reassurance he gave me throughout the whole pregnancy and birth. If you’re looking for an obstetrician who’s genuine, caring, and just gets it…Dr Sam is your guy!
Loved watching every moment with the camera - Dr Sam went through everything with detail and reassured me with possibilities - will recommend to anyone that needs a gynaecologist
Very nice clinic, relaxing, clean and comfortable. Dr Purcell and all the staff were great, friendly and professional.
Doctor Purcell was very kind and professional in his explanations. Very knowledgeable and he really cares about his patients.
We had a wonderful experience with Sam. I had a lot of anxieties about my second pregnancy after our first. I was able to leave each consultation feeling reassured and heard. Sam advocated for me during my labor and was fantastic throughout. My husband and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dr Purcell to anyone looking for a highly skilled and personable obstetrician.
