Highly recommendPosted on Google Bria O’Neill3 August 2026 Very thoroughPosted on Google John Hill3 August 2026 This was my first occasion to use this facility. I found it to be very efficient and well managed. The young man at reception was friendly and helpful. It was not v busy but had a steady flow of patients. I was seen by a very pleasant and competent doctor in a timely fashion despite it being a public holiday. My overall experience was very positive.Posted on Google awErachel brew2 August 2026 We had just got off the plane in Shannon and had to bring son in due to a massive surge in symptoms. Appointment was quick and treatment given. So thankful otherwise a long wait in accident and emergency. Gp was very patient with a very anxious teenage boy who was very reluctant to be examinedPosted on Google Annmarie Vaughan2 August 2026 Excellent care and attentionPosted on Google Marin Petak1 August 2026 Looking for a doctor for a year and half and could never find a place that takes new patients. Came here without a call/appointment, welcomed by lovely Sarah, filled up a form and got to speak with doctor half and hour after. Could not recommend it enough!
