Fantastic experience: Always excellent & first rate experience, staff are amazing & extremely professional. Recommend 100%
Negative experience: Marc is absolutely amazing made my ASD son feel very relaxed and welcome. So the one star rating isn’t about the quality of service from him. The admin lady there is extremely rude and very unprofessional with how she treated me and my family twice and I have only seen Marc the once . Don’t ever cancel an appointment if your ASD child is sick with Influenza or if you have a family emergency anytime hour before appointment and made sure they were contacted and not just turned up. I had an emergency where one of my family members were very injured at their work in the carpark and had my sister inlaw call as I was rushing to hospital and she was with me as I left to go up to the hospital to let the receptionist know and the admin were extremely rude and said are you sure you want to reschedule as this has been the second time of needing to cancel in a really rude judgemental voice like I should of came in not been with family in hospital. Told my sister inlaw well I will be charging full fee today as late cancellation. In a rude tone and an emergency is an emergency was out of my hands . My ASD son being extremely unwell the first time and has trouble managing when he is unwell from when he is sick as they do and I did the right thing by not spreading INFLUENZA A in the workplace and to have that brought up like I was also doing the wrong thing then. Also when first appointment at the physio and I told her NDIS were helping with funds when she told me the invoice total she changed her tone and said about about I’m not sure about being able to do that in a very judgemental tone and facial expression made me and my son very uncomfortable instead of saying ok no problem il just contact someone and see how we do that one . I’ve never felt so judged and uncomfortable to go somewhere in my life and it’s hard enough trying to get my son to things like this for him for his anxiety. He now feels very uncomfortable to go as he felt very uncomfortable how her voice changed when I said about NDIS and him having ASD!
Fantastic experience: Great support, marred by just one experience with a female physio.
