I had a phone consultation with Dr. Galloway and I can honestly say I have never been spoken to by a doctor or any other physician in such a judgemental, patronising and rude way. Absolutely disgraceful tone and zero care. I hope I never have to deal with her again and will be looking for alternative care from a doctor who actually values and respects their patients.

Literally everything could have been done better. Terrible!

Dr Bennett provided excellent mental health care.

Followed up referral to ensure external service was provided.

THIS IS TO UPDATE AND REPLACE PREVIOUS REPORT FOR TWO REASONS 1. ADDITIONAL CLARIFICATION 2. WHEN FILLING IN THE FORM HERE - AND ANSWERING THE FOLLOWING QUESTION 'WHAT WE COULD HAVE DONE BETTER BOX' IT DOESNT SHOW UP WITH THAT IN THE REPORT - SO COMMENTS ARE OUT OF CONTEXT. THANK YOU I don't go to the doctors often and try and resolve problems myself, but after months of trying to resolve a severe skin condition in which my face had swollen and I now couldn't open my eyes fully, I finally phoned the doctors only to be told a doctor would not speak to me - I should go and see a pharmacist and until I had tried at least three different types of creams the doctor would not speak with me. I had a temperature of 40.1, BP of 125/77 and it was painful to even wear clothes. With my worsening condition the last thing I wanted to do was be amongst people nor waste time and money to address symptoms and not cause. I went private. Blood tests and consultations resolved the issue without any creams.

What could you have done better? 1. Have a doctor speak with me 2. Asked qualifying questions to check age, severity, duration, other symptoms, ability to access other services 3. Show you care and you are not just looking for excuses not to see people

Disgusted with the response and lack interest - I have since resolved the problem myself by going private.

1 - Spoken with a doctor 2 - Asked qualifying questions to check the sevrity, duration of the problem or whether it could have been something life threatening such as meningitis, covid etc.

I feel I have to write this re 2 earlier reviews. Dr Sophie Galloway has literally saved my life on more than one occasion and the nonsense that has been said is absurd! Over the last 7 years I have had severe mental health and medical issues and without her compassion, empathy, time and always always availability to talk I most certainly would not be here today! She is so caring and goes out of her way to help. Please ignore the rubbish written earlier- she is a Saint.
