Dr Shanker Vijayadeva 2021-05-18 Person 5 5 0

Spoke to Dr Vijayadeva on the phone within four hours of my initial call to the surgery to seek help. He was practical and business-like and gave me space to talk about my symptoms, medical history and medications. He quickly proposed immediate steps to provide relief for my condition but also suggested a concrete set of actions for the medium term. I was pleased and reassured by his professional approach, his medical knowledge and his focus on practical steps. I collected his electronic prescription from my nominated pharmacy mid afternoon and have now started a course of anti-biotics with some welcome painkillers to alleviate my discomfort. I could not have asked for a better service. I may well seek some private treatment for one aspect of my condition (eg podiatry) where the NHS may not be able to see me for several months but all in all I was very happy with the service I received.
