    We’ve been visiting Growlife for almost a year and have had nothing but positive experiences! The reception staff, nurse, midwives, and doctors are all amazing. I’ve also enjoyed the sense of community found in the parent’s group facilitated by one of the fabulous midwives Kay.

    Your child health nurse needs serious education on how to interact with small children. I took my son to a 4th year vaccination in your clinic today and the whole experience was very traumatising. From the beginning my son tried to talk to the nurse, how excited he is and him + his baby sister going to get vaccine soldier etc - the nurse didn't even response to his talking in fact she just ignored him and only talked to us. She just carried on as this little person is not even in the room at all. The nurse suggested we sit him down, with a screen while nurse and doctor simultanously give the 4th year vaccine + flu shot. Which was a very bad idea - they were literally picked up the needles and without any explanation said 1-2-3 and tried to give the vaccines at the same time. Of course it spooked him out (despite the numbing cream I put), he moved and doctor failed to inject the flu shot. It was horrendous, even I am traumatised. Now even though you have good doctors I don't think I can ever manage to take my child to a gp in this clinic again because now he is extremely scared of the doctor's office. Before this experience, I had a 4 years old who was excited to have a shot and see the gp - now the opposite. Thank you

    I used to come here and loved it. Staff were super friendly and professional. Doctor Anna was thorough and very professional. I moved house and changed clinic unfortunately. It's been 2 years. I recently came back for a vaccine appointment for my child and here are some issues I encountered. First reception staff were too dry and formal. Zero smiles it made me feel sort of unwelcome. Secondly, they said they checked if my child had previously had the vaccine I was about to give her. And the nurse came saying no the child never had it. Luckily I asked if she had checked the government website? She said no. Just her records in the clinic only 😐 what! What if she had taken the vaccine but in another clinic?? You would have given her the vaccine AGAIN if I hadn't said anything? Of course all got resolved but it was clear the gap in knowledge in vaccine guidelines. Thirdly, I thought before any vaccine children need to be examined. I had to ask for them to bring a stethoscope and check her chest. Not sure if I'll come back again..

    Growlife Medical is a truly exceptional family GP clinic – every doctor and staff member we have encountered there is dedicated, genuine and has taken time, consideration and great care with each of my children. All of the clinics are impressive, modern and feel comfortable and it is evident that they care about the details. I can highly recommend Growlife Medical at any of their locations.

    Best Medical team I have ever used. The nurses are friendly and hardworking. The doctors are attentive and up to date with medical procedures and alternatives. The extra services including the dietician are easy to book and work with. I can't recommend it more highly!

    My partner & I recently moved our care for our 4 month old to Growlife Medical on the back of a glowing review from our midwife. Unfortunately our experience has been nothing but appalling. For a place that apparently "prides themselves on the smiles and laughter that often come from reception", we have only been met with cold, tactless & unhelpful reception staff. Today my partner went to drop off a pathology sample for our baby, a task you would think would take no longer than 5 minutes. It ended up taking an hour and leaving my partner in tears due to the unhelpful reception staff. My partner called the number on the door of Growlife upon arrival as it says you are supposed to do before entering. She was hung up on before she was able to ask exactly where to drop off the pathology sample. Her second phone call she was informed to call and leave a message with the pathologist, and to continue to wait outside. After trying to call the pathologist 10 times, having her mother in law try to call 19 times with no answer, the pathologist finally came outside an hour later to take a another patient in for a blood test and inform them that her phone wasn't working. My partner who was now in tears, frustrated with a hungry crying baby then called reception to tell them she had been waiting outside for an hour to only be lied to by reception who told her that they had told her to come inside beforehand. With my partner visibly crying, there wasn't much in the way of compassion or an apology from staff. With the high prevalence of postpartum depression and anxiety, you would think that staff would show a little more compassion to a crying mother. We have however had a positive experience with one of the lovely doctors, Dr. McFerran.

    Margie was wonderful with my 4 year old son and Dr Sindhu provided a really useful range of advice

  • 5/5 Nicola Z. 6 years ago on Google
    Fantastic doctors, great location. Dr Douglas was so reassuring when I was a new mum. Now she looks after me and my 3 girls.

    I saw Dr Elizabeth Hay today at GrowLife and it was such a positive experience. The staff are so kind and professional and Dr Hay was incredibly thorough, empathetic and attentive. First appointment after having moved from interstate and I'm so glad I chose this practice!

  • 5/5 Julia R. 5 years ago on Google
    Great doctors and nurses, good place to go for parents groups if you’re a new mum / dad too.

  • 5/5 Dimertri 11 months ago on Google
    I cried a little after my appointment. The doctor was so understanding and sympathetic about everything. He ordered tests that I've been begging for from my previous GPs for years and is willing to do a referral to a specialist without a fight. He actively listened to me and I cannot describe how incredible it was. I'm a very "fix the problem, not just treat the symptoms" kind of person and he completely gets it. Will happily rave about Dr Day to anyone that asks.

  • 5/5 Lauren W. 11 months ago on Google
    Lovely and happy staff!! Dr. Kathryn Phillips was fantastic and really lovely. I have been looking for a great doctor who has the time and actually listens. So glad I have found her.

  • 5/5 Brianna C. 11 months ago on Google
    Fast and efficient. I came in today for a very swollen and uncomfortable eyelid. Dr Elizabeth Hays was professional, informative and I felt well cared for. She gave appropriate prescriptions for medicine and reminded me to get a medical certificate which I had forgotten I would need for work. Much appreciated and many thanks!

    Dr Liz was the missing link I needed in my vast medical team. Incredibly grateful for her supportive objective. Receptionist were very welcoming and felt like friends not “just a receptionist” so well done everyone

  • 5/5 Ann H. 11 months ago on Google
    My last visit was quite impressive. It was for a B12 injection and I was amazed as to how competently it was handled. My GP saw me briefly. The nurse then proceeded expertly with the injection and I was walking painlessly out the surgery within minutes. I must mention that this occurred even though I, inadvertently, was an hour late for my appointment. My warm thanks to the understanding and kind receptionist.

  • 5/5 Kitty R. 10 months ago on Google
    Dr Hay is awesome. A compassionate, understanding doctor with a wealth of medical knowledge. What more could you want? I should add the reception staff are also excellent - helpful and friendly. It is a stressful job, yet I have found them considerably more helpful than at many other practices I’ve attended.

  • 5/5 Teegan C. 5 years ago on Google
    Incredible doctors and fantastic for children. Thank you!!

  • 5/5 Sally T. 8 months ago on Google
    Dr McFerrin is of the "old school" where she gives you the time and listens. Her advice is always sound and her manner very reassuring. She runs on time - usually unless something unexpected comes up. Staff at the front counter are polite and friendly which is a bonus.

    Staff is very nice and friendly. First time attending this medical centre, doctor very thorough, and empathetic; won my trust immediately not only with knowledge but also showing her human side. Very happy with my new GP

  • 5/5 Meg P. 10 months ago on Google
    I am so impressed with the Sherwood clinic. Have only just become a patient in the past few months. Since that time, I have had a Nurse come to the house to assess my situation. My doctor is absolutely splendid and caring and has given me more support than I have ever had in a Medical Clinic. The staff have been extra special and the ladies on the front desk are very special and caring. Thank you to Growlife Medical Sherwood.

    My family and I have been visiting Grow Medical to see Dr Anna for the last 2 years since the birth of my second child. I can honestly say that her approach has redefined what family medicine should be. She understands us as a family unit and how our health fits into that. She is thorough, knowledgeable and just ‘gets’ motherhood. She has helped me through what I think have been the most challenging years yet…navigating early parenthood. I highly recommend her and the grow medical team.

    A stellar practice with caring and dedicated staff

  • 1/5 Jany Trang C. 1 year ago on Google
    No bulk bill for children anymore. We should have been informed while we booked. Always busy and long wait!

  • 5/5 Miss B. 5 years ago on Google
    Excellent clinic, our search for a decent family doctor is finally over! Thank you Dr Chambers :)

  • 5/5 Steven 6 years ago on Google
    I would recommend this practice. Dr Chambers has been looking after me and my family for years and I am very happy to see him in a great new location.

  • 1/5 Sandra B. 2 years ago on Google
    Great Doctors you do have to pay for them. However, no referrals allowed here. I really need referrals to other medical professionals. This practice are worried about being audited so I had to change Drs again to get a referral to a physio for my back which I broke several years ago. Its not chronic so no referral for me. So annoying

  • 5/5 Evi B. 6 years ago on Google
    Excellent experience, professional and kind staff and knowledgeable doctors. I highly recommend grow medical!!!

  • 5/5 cherbourgdoll 2 years ago on Google
    Just wanted to say that Dr. Lim is an amazing doctor! My family and I have been seeing him for a while and he is very professional, caring and has an incredible bedside manner. My daughter always looks forward to seeing him as she loves his animal balloons he makes for her.

  • 5/5 Sarah S. 6 years ago on Google
    Dr Chambers has been a trusted and caring doctor to my family for many years, including my kids from birth (now aged 2, 7 & 9). He has gone above and beyond in times when we really needed help. Great with kids & opinion/approach has proven true & helpful many times over. The new practice great & is very convenient to Sherwood State School. Sarah Robertson

    Highly recommend this practice - trusted and caring doctors. Brilliant with children. Very lucky to have them in our area.

  • 5/5 Annie L. 5 years ago on Google
    It's very evident that Grow Medical is focused on providing excellent service to all its patients, as well as being involved in the wider community. Beautiful caring family practice.

  • 1/5 Emma C. 4 years ago on Google
    Worst customer service. Horrendous wait times. GP's who clearly think they're better than the rest of the world. Charged for a long appointment as the GP typed his notes so slowly it went over the allocated 15 minutes.

  • 5/5 taylor b. 4 years ago on Google
    I've been visiting grow for 2 years now, through my pregnancy and birth and subsequent care for myself and my son. The admin team are lovely and helpful, and Dr Howard is always thorough in her care. We also attend the mothers group weekly which has been very helpful to be able to link with a nurse and meet other mums.

  • 5/5 Courtney J. 4 years ago on Google
    I attend the mothers group at Grow Medical as well as see Kay, the child health nurse. Kay is absolutely fantastic. Very knowledgeable and very experienced and always applies evidence-based practice. The other staff with whom I've had interactions are always fantastic, polite, and helpful, and try to organise appointments for me that accommodate mine and my baby's needs.

  • 5/5 Saul C. 3 years ago on Google
    Wonderful clinic with caring nurses and doctors. Took time to understand our health needs. True family GP, so glad we have found Grow Medical!

  • 5/5 Emer R. 3 years ago on Google
    A great practice - Dr. Howard was always very patient, kind, and really thorough...a wonderful GP, I’m sad to have moved area recently but would highly recommend and was very grateful for her care :-)
