I have been a patient of Dr Bayles for 20+ years, and have never wavered in my belief that he is an excellent GP, one of the "old style" who engages with me on an equal professional basis. His clinical strengths include his capacity to listen, to consider, to pursue contrary evidence which in turn is reflected in his diagnoses. He is very experienced and knowledgeable; despite his heavy workload, he is a well organised GP from a patient perspective. If he says that he will take action eg writing a referral to the local hospital, it will happen - and speedily. He has a great sense of humour and a capacity to convey both good and bad news in a sensitive and supportive manner. He is empathetic and yet pragmatic; his advice is always well tempered and appropriate. I have been very fortunate in having had him as my GP for so long, and shall miss him greatly as he heads towards retirement.
