During my first visit, we experienced significant difficulties. We had trouble finding the hospital, then the parking, and finally, the reception sent us to various places before we found the doctor. This caused a 5-minute delay. The doctor became argumentative and spent 10 minutes explaining her frustration rather than understanding my reasons for being late. She mentioned having another appointment, which stressed me out and made me rush through providing her with the necessary details. Her hurried approach was not appreciated, especially since we were seeing a private doctor. On my second visit, I arrived early, but she made us wait even though there were no other patients with her, contradicting her previous emphasis on punctuality. She did not apologize for being late. Additionally, the letters provided were not given promptly. She first sent the claim to Bupa in both instances before giving us the letter. The letter also had an old GP address, and despite constant follow-up, a revised letter has not yet been issued.

Unfortunately, I'd not rate Dr Vadamalayan highly. My child and I were in and out in 10 minutes and I felt that he didn't listened to me much or took any notice of what I was telling him, even before we left the room he was checking his phone. Even my child commented " that was quick mummy, it took us 25 mins to get here and only a few mins to see the doctor!" Despite telling the doctor that my child did not suffer from constipation he prescribed tablets for a colonic transit study so my child had to take tablets for 3 consecutive days and on day 4 an x-ray of abdomen was done. He called us a couple of days after the x-ray, he didn't even have the results and asked us to tell him once again what our concerns were which I thought he'd have had noted down during our initial consultation. He then called a few days later to tell me that he had found the x-ray results and there was no sign of the tablets somy child did pass them and didn't have constipation which I had told him already. The only thing he could suggest was giving my child laxatives to make my child have diarrhea and clear out the intestines which again was unnecessary as the reason for our visit was to find out why my child throws up occasionally while feeling absolutely fine and well, without any sign or symptoms of any illness. My child did not suffer from constipation. I told him at the consultation that it could of course be psychological but I wanted to rule out any physiological problems and focusing on constipation was not helpful. Having had to pay the excess on our health insurance and other bills I'm very unsatisfied.
