Made me feel at ease from the very beginning, knowledgeable and professional, yet very approachable. Highly recommended
I completed cancer treatment in Worcester in 2024 before joining the Victoria Medical Centre as a patient in early 2025. I was referred to royal Marsden Hospital NHS for my follow up care which has been excellent. I recently saw a GP at VMC for anxiety and depression and, at the same time, the GP recommended a range of blood tests. This evidenced a diagnosis of hypo thyroid and the recommended prescription has been very effective in treating the condition and the anxiety. I was also prescribed a course of Guided Self Help which has been extremely helpful and effective. I have also been referred by the GP to Moorfields eye hospital, on the advice of my ophthalmologist, for tests for glaucoma and am now on course for further appointments with them. The doctors, other practitioners and other NHS staff I have met at the centre have been sympathetic and effective.
I made contact with Dr Thaxter based on a referral from one of his patients. I took my Father who needed prompt attention for his condition and Dr Thaxter has been extremely helpful supportive and responsive in this matter. He evaluated my Father very well and made referral to a cardiologist for further examination. Through the has been reachable when needed and has given advise on the steps to be taken. I can say with full confidence that he is an extremely good professional doctor with a real interest for the wellbeing of his patients. Congratulations to him. I will recommend him to anyone I meet who might require medical attention.
