Report
The receptionists at the Nillumbik Medical Centre are incredibly rude. The latest example was when my wife went in recently to ask about getting our daughter vaccinated against COVID. Without looking up, the receptionist shoved a card towards my wife and barked "book online". Following this, we decided to move to another medical practice in Eltham and we have found the service to be far superior.

These doctors are ok but they don't care about mental health when it comes to mask exemptions so don't try to get one here if u suffer from it

The Doctors are good but the receptionists go out of their way to be difficult. Fed up with their attitude. They will not answer an email if you are sitting at work in an open office and want to converse by email for privacy reasons they will just keep telling you via email to call the surgery. Its 2021 try and get your head around the fact that some people work full time and need to correspond by email. They won't they are just arrogant and take pleasure in being unhelpful. I have to resort to emailing the GP directly because the receptionists will not do their job. It seems like the doctors have

They just told me to go somewhere else to get a COVID vaccine. Totally unhelpful. Just saw another review that said the front desk was populated by "Karens" and that was exactly my experience.

Most of the reception staff are absolutely horrible.
Rude, nasty and not so subtle when talking about you with other coworkers.
Ive never been treated so poorly at a doctors office before. Totally unprofessional.
