D Forbes

Dr Forbes is a very friendly and helpful doctor. I think he is the nicest doctor at this surgery. Unfortunately a lot of other patients obviously think the same and it is very very difficult to get an appointment with him. If you telephone on the day the appointments go very quickly and if you try for a future appointment it is usually for at least 3 weeks time!
If you are lucky enough to get to see him he does tend to run late on his appointments, sometimes up to 30 minutes but at least it means he does not rush his patients out of his room without listening properly to them.
The receptionists are not always friendly (but in my experience doctors’ receptionists rarely are!) and will often demand to know what is wrong with you before you are given an appointment.
