Dr Jo Burgin is an incredibly caring, compassionate and extremely knowledgable doctor. I felt so seen, heard and completely safe. Her expertise is incredible and I have never had a better experience with a doctor.
Dr Jo Burgin is very professional and puts me at ease, allowing me to open up and feel truly listened too. At the end of the appointment felt very hopeful for my onward journey and treatment. Thank you!

I had my first visit at the clinic and finally I felt listened to and understood. Explanations were clear and I really felt that the clinic cared about me and supporting me
As before, found Dr Jo so easy to talk to and ask questions etc. She's really lovely!
I had a really useful meeting with Dr Burgin who was very knowledgeable, personable and practical. I was looking for some reassurance that I am approaching my HRT in the right way and whether there is anything else I should be thinking about given my symptoms and family history. Dr Burgin gave me some good tips and we talked across a number of areas - it was really good to have the time to do that, without feeling rushed.
I can’t recommend Dr Jo enough. I felt heard, understood and so relieved to have someone with such expertise, kindness and honesty to help guide me on the next stage of this journey. Thank you Jo!
Lovely GP, very easy to talk to. Happy with the outcome. Highly recommend
My appointment was with Dr. Jo Burgin who was absolutely OUTSTANDING. She was exceptionally generous with her time, knowledgeable, thorough, patient, warm, reassuring and answered all of my questions with very clear explanations. She gave balanced and excellent guidance regarding taking HRT as a woman in my early 60s and helped me to reach a helpful conclusion regarding the way forward. The follow-up email to summarise the appointment (also forwarded to my GP) was done in a very timely way and it was helpful to have all the information written down for further reflection. Having had a very limited appointment time with my GP previously, after a recent diagnosis of osteoporosis, and not feeling well informed or supported by my GP, meeting Dr Jo Burgin was an absolute pleasure and a breath of fresh air. If you are in any doubt about this clinic…. make an appointment! Best wishes to you all at the clinic . Cheryl
