Aside from the professional skills doctor Muir is very reassuring. He knows how to make his patient feel listened and taken care to which is an ability you cannot take for granted.

1. 25 minute wait to have bloods taken was disappointing in a private hospital. 2. Pharmacist calling out the medicine when collecting a prescription for all to hear is unnecessarily insensitive with queue of people and others sitting waiting for their prescription

I am so sorry that there was a delay and that you had this experience in pharmacy - such things should not happen. I will contact the hospital to make sure this is improved in future - its not the norm I can assure you.
