It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Miss Grimes . She was so professional and helpful and scheduled me so promptly to have my investigations . She always kept me informed of what was happening and she fixed my issues so quickly , and was always so nice to deal with . I would definitely recommend her!
Very clear explainations. Treated as a partner in my care and talked through risks and benefits of treatment.
I had an excellent experience with Miss Grimes. Her bedside manner was outstanding. She listened attentively to all my concerns and explained my condition and the treatment plan clearly and thoroughly. I felt reassured and well cared for throughout the visit. I highly recommend her services.
She is kind and caring. She answered all my questions in depth and detail.
Dr Grimes is extremely caring and professional. I would definitely recommend her.
Dr Grimes was a very caring and extremely knowledgeable doctor to me. Had a reassuring bedside manner which was important to me as a nervous patient.
I met Miss Grimes in September when I came for a recent consultation which in the end meant that I needed surgery. She was warm, open, down to earth with a good sense of humour. Most importantly, she was approachable. She carried out a thorough investigation and explained the process making time to address questions from me and my family. I had complete confidence that she had my interests at heart and she made the process so much easier than it might have been.
She is kind and understanding and is specialized in her area of expertise and is happy to recommend colleagues of hers to carry on treatments if its not her specialty.
I have been under Miss Grimes care for the past few years intermittently for on - going abdominal issues secondary to previous history of traumatic gynaecology surgery which has resulted in significant adhesions and bowel issues. This lead to referral to the surgical team and I have been very fortunate to have been referred to Miss Grimes. During my time I have found Miss Grimes consistently person - centred, empathetically respectful, use of highly developed personalised skills and effective focused listening skills that ensures my concerns and fears are heard. In addition Miss Grimes practice reflects problem - solving and supportive care through discussion whilst exploring risks and benefits of all options offered allowing shared collaboration and support in the decision - making process. Miss Grimes practice demonstrates substantial knowledge, skills, integrity and experience, skills and performance including safety and quality which promotes trust as a patient. On a personal level I have found Miss Grimes caring, considerate, proactive, compassionate, kind, self - aware, supportive and an effective reflector. Miss Grimes is an outstanding clinician and I have nothing but admiration.
I highly recommend Dr. Grimes. I've referred patients to her, and they consistently provide positive feedback. She listens carefully, makes her patients feel heard and valued, and has an excellent bedside manner.
