The reception staff are horrible to deal with, and as for the vast majority of GP's, I won't even go there. I am wondering whether there are any pleasant female doctors in the Waterford City area who would be able to take over my files? Any feedback would be appreciated

One day I had an appointment and was there 10 minutes early and the person in before me took about 30 mins, was probably very sick so I didn't mind at all. My problem was that when I was eventually called in it was literally the fastest appointment I had ever had, Guiness World Record should have been notified it was that fast. I came out within 3 minutes, no treatment for my ailments or nothing, all because she was running late. One woman on reception is just as bad as her sister, the woman on the appointments desk, I asked her when my doctor was free and her response was "I don't have time to be playing guessing games" and then the woman in prescriptions loses your script and treats you like its somehow your fault. The reception staff are as narcissistic as the doctors. Anyhow, rant over. All I really want to know is if there is a nice young female doctor around the city who is willing to take me on. I met one in CareDoc last year and for the life of me I cannot remember her name unfortunately. All I know is she worked with doctor Hennigan.

All I really care about is that they are pleasant to deal with and don't have their eyes glued to the clock or computer when you're in the room

The receptionist there is lovely, there's never much of a queue and you can usually get an appointment when you need one. They would have your complete history on file so it might be worth thinking about before transferring.....?
