“Fantastic experience with Dr Soomaroo and the team. From the moment we arrived, the receptionist was friendly and welcoming, and the process of creating a new patient file was quick and effortless.”
“I visited Dr Ishara last week after not being well for a while. The staff were very helpful as it was my first visit with the doctor. They made my appointment and times were adhered to more or less. Doctor was very friendly and had an excellent bedside manner. I am very pleased with the service received.”
“Took my son to her rooms and was very impressed with how thorough she is and how she upkeeps COVID-19 protocol. This was our first time at this practice but will most certainly be using this doctor as our family doctor in future.”

Philosophy
Slow medicine in a fast suburb.
A short appointment can miss the thing that matters. So the practice runs on the belief that a proper history and a proper examination are worth the minutes they take.
Explanation matters just as much. You should be able to repeat back what is wrong and what the plan is by the time you reach the door.
Protocol is kept seriously, hygiene included, because trust in a consulting room is built out of small, visible habits.
