Very compassionate doctor, which I feel listen to what I am saying.
Dr Behrens came across as very thorough and caring. His communication was excellent.
The wait time was awhile but now I know that he takes care of the patients so I can easily work while waiting as his waiting rooms are very relaxing.
As always Dr Behrens is one of the best GP ‘s I have ever gone too.
I highly recommend using RecoMed booking system. The platform makes it incredibly convenient to see available time slots that suit your schedule, eliminating the hassle of calling the reception to book an appointment.
It takes the pain out of engaged lines or unanswered calls
An excellent GP and he has Physio training which really does help in some situations.
