Armstrong Street Medical Centre - Middle Park, Victoria

"Dr Leon does not make you feel like he's in a rush. He takes the time to ask relevant questions and think through the options with you in a spirit of collaborative. He's also mindful of looking for low-cost options. Highly recommended GP."

"I’ve been attending the clinic for a number of years. My GP is Dr Noel Leon. He is loveliest, attentive, thorough and most understanding doctor I have ever had. I never feel rushed, he listens to any of my concerns and refers onto specialists when required. I can’t recommend his services enough."

"Like numerous other reviews, you’re either told to go to emergency every single time, and kept in for longer unnecessary appointment. Their new protocol due to covid is beyond ridiculous. If you present with a cough you’re guided outside to a wet, cold damp outdoor tent (great in winter when you’re feeling sick!) where they come out in a complete bubble hazmat suit and treated like you’re at the infectious department at the WHO. This is 2023. It’s time to get some perspective. I barely was consulted. A quick temp check (yep no temperature like I said in the questionnaire prior to booking) and then a quick 20 sec stethoscope check through layers of jumpers to check my lungs, and then the typical covid questions (that I had answered in the questionnaire and again at the door just to sign in) I had a persistent wheeze crackle in my chest when exhaling which I tried to explain twice and the reason I was there, I have had pneumonia in the past as well as asthma hence why I was concerned. How can your previous history be addressed in an outdoor tent.. and during winter? Asked to sit on cold wet metal seats under a wet outdoor tent on top of damp faux grass outside next to an outdoor tap? Where is the duty of care? There are other illnesses than covid! I am all for being vigilant, but this is beyond extreme. You can’t even sit in reception prior to your appointment you have to sit in your car, call the clinic (that has about a 7 minute introduction message every single time) That was the last time visiting this place after saying never again after the last visit, it’s just gotten worse and all the great drs have since left. They just usually read your symptoms off a screen. It’s literally like google Dr. Do better! Just wish I got more photos of the outside “treatment area!” Edit: went to another clinic after suffering several days and saw a consulting Dr who was fabulous. I have pneumonia! Prescribed antibiotic and steroid for my lungs."

"Always friendly, attentive and willing to help. After calling the surgery only 10 min before they closed, following a referral from the chemist to go straight to the Dr, they managed to squeeze us in for an appt. A kind Dr, with great bedside manor helped our teenage son, and he was on his necessary antibiotics by dinner time. Very impressive!!"

"Dr Jo-Anne Zappia was the finest, most caring Doctor I've ever consulted. When I play the song "When Ye Go Away" by the Waterboy's I often think of her when I hear the second verse...It's goes...Her beauty is familiar, her voice is like a key, it opens up my soul and torches up a fire inside of me, her cloak is made of magic, around her table Angels play, and I will cry, when she goes away."
