Dr Wolfgang Walter

Written by a patient at Thornbury Health Centre

I would not recommend this doctor to anyone. I suffer with depression and felt alienated talking to him about my struggles. He did not seem to try and relate to what I was going through, making me feel weird and uneasy. Cold is how I would describe this doctor. He did not listen to me, did not read my notes from the NHS and seemed to have an agenda in his mind and I was a bystander listening to his lecture. I would avoid this doctor, unless you are desperate and there arent any other caring doctors about.

I saw this Doctor fairly recently for a routine appointment. I found him condescending & not interested in anything I had to say. I ended up hiding in the surgery toilet afterwards to try & compose myself after leaving his office in tears. I was fairly anxious going in as the appointments were all running very late. His manner was very cold & he kept going off on tangents, telling me his opinion but not listening to mine. He clearly hadn’t read my notes. I gave up trying to explain & just nodded along with everything he was saying after the first 5 minutes even where I knew why what he was saying was incorrect. When something he tested disproved what he was saying he moved on. I was working up the courage to ask something with regards to my mental health but felt unable to do so. Ultimately I felt like I was spoken to as though I was a stupid child. Even several days later my mood is incredibly low. Maybe I was unfortunate & went on a busy/stressful day for him, but I won’t be going back. I don’t like the idea of being judged on non health related things again, & unfortunately it just makes me even more likely to avoid all GP’s.

I cannot rate dr Wolfgang highly enough I had just recently developed stomach problems and After seeing a few GPs, being to hospital twice and seeing gastroenterologist no one could diagnose me correctly, dr Wolfgang within first 5 min of our meeting was able to tell me that I have gastritis. He told me what to eat and what will help me. Had just done my gastroscopy yesterday and it was confirmed what dr Wolfgang said, that is gastritis. Also dr Wolfgang is skilled in acupuncture and was able to help me with my anxiety and sleeping problems, all without pills! I cannot thank him enough.

Dr Walter was very observant and not only helped me with a current condition but put it in a wider context so I understood a few other issues I had been having. He gave me lots of useful information and very clear instructions as to how to handle my condition. He was courteous, friendly and extremely professional.
