Blackburn Clinic

I have been a patient of doctors at Blackburn Clinic for over 20 years.
The standard of professionalism and care is exemplary and I am very grateful for the thorough service they continue to provide.
This care was extended also to my elderly mother when she required additional medical support during the last months of her life, and was living with family, away from her regular doctor.
Thanks Blackburn Clinic!

I've been looking for a GP for four years since I moved to Melbourne, having really loved my GP back home, and have tried at least 10 clinics. This was, for once, a really positive experience. Dr Melanie had come recommended and she was lovely. She did not jump to conclusions, she treated me like she expected me to come back instead of just a 5 minute rush appoint, and she was not weight prejudiced, which has been surprisingly hard to find here. She treated me like a person and a fellow health professional. Pathology was also great, and the reception staff were lovely and easy to deal with. Thank you!

The only thing I'd highlight is that for an early appointment for a first time attender it was a little confusing - if you get a text saying to go to the childcare entrance, it is the entrance to the right of the main entrance, with the door open.

Great clinic, from the gps to the reception staff.
20 yrs coming here with my family of four.
Happy to see any gp although Elise Harrison and Sean Das are family favourites.

My family has attended this Clinic for over 50 years. Blackburn Clinic Doctors and staff have always been wonderful to deal with and professional at all times. Dr Adrian Tang is our family Doctor and is the most caring and beautiful person you could meet. He is always there for us; his knowledge is incredible and not only an excellent Doctor but an exceptional human being. We are very lucky to have him as our family Doctor.

Wonderful Doctors at Blackburn Clinic. You have a choice of over 20 doctors. Each have their own specialty. Receptionists are warm, friendly and helpful to meet your needs.

As a health professional, I was very impressed with Dr Yeshar's warm manner and patience when seeing my toddler for the first time. He was very personable, comprehensive, empathetic and reassuring. He took the time to discuss my concerns, to make my toddler feel secure and I felt very happy that we booked to see him. I highly recommend Dr Yeshar- he is clearly very experienced, approachable and is an excellent GP!

I have been a patient at Blackburn Clinic for many years. In all this time I have been treated very well by the staff and my doctor Grant Connoley. They are always up to date on anything new and over Covid they should all be given medals for the way they coped, even though I would imagine they were exhausted. I cannot recommend this clinic highly enough. Thank you Blackburn Clinic for looking after me to well for so long.

I have seen 3 different doctors here. All have been amazing. Listened. Heard me. Were gentle and accomodating to my kids who felt worried about seeing a new doctor.
The reception staff are always friendly and helpful. Each time I have been the doctors have been on time.
I needed to organise something over a phone call consult - and it was done. The nurses knew what I needed and were expecting me. I have a medical background - this clinic has left me impressed and I feel so lucky it’s up the road!!

We recently moved, and changed to this clinic a few months ago, and I have been so pleased with the service we get each and every time. The 24/7 online booking system is so handy, the receptionists are always so friendly, and there is ample parking. Both GPs we have seen so far have been wonderful, we have never felt rushed and they provide excellent patient-centred mgmt. As a private practice, they are worth every penny. We are so happy that we chose this clinic as our new regular.

Outstanding service and professionalism. Responsive with the utmost care for patient. Highly recommend.

Cannot speak highly enough of Blackburn Clinic. Our family of four has attended for nine years, we see several GPs here and they are all excellent, managing a range of complex conditions with empathy and competence. Sometimes the wait times are lengthy, but that is simply because the doctors never rush their patients. Wonderful having pathology, x-ray and pharmacy on site also.

Sean Das has been my GP for well over a decade. He's one of the best GP's I've met. Always knowledgeable, patient, kind, gentle and an excellent sense of humour, while still being professional.

I recently attended for the Covid vaccination, wow .... what a professional setup !!! congratulations to the Covid staff who, as being quite young were so professional and attentive. Great job team. I have been attending the Clinic for many years, both as a resident of Blackburn and during my work overseas. The Clinic staff are professional and the Practitioners are excellent. It does get busy and patients need to understand that sometimes other patients in front of you need that extra time to have their matter dealt with. I would much rather wait a little more and know that I would also be getting that type of service then to have a rushed appointment. Being patient can also take the pressure of the Practitioners, as they are dealing with some very complex issues as a GP. We put our trust in them, so trust that they too are giving you their best.

I have been coming to Blackburn Clinic for over thirty five years. I feel so supported when I walk in, the reception staff are great. I have had numerous medical issues and my life has been saved by the doctors there. Now the next generation of our family are at Blackburn Clinic, and I feel safe knowing they have such great doctors and para professionals looking out for them.
What I can really say is aren’t we fortunate to have such a caring local group of doctors looking after us all.
Thanks doctors, administration, nurses, cleaners, and all who care for us and our community.

Best GP Clinic I have been to and won't go anywhere else now. Every doctor there my family and I have seen has been very, thorough, professional and knoweldgable and always make us feel comfortable and cared for.
The reception staff are also positive, friendly and helpful. Very highly recommended!

Our 7 week old baby was sick and they managed to squeeze us in at very short notice (within an hour) The medical care was excellent with great advice and a follow up appointment was arranged for today

As we needed to monitor our son after we left the consulting rooms , we were asked to call back after a few hours to give an update. The doctor was busy and called back within 15 minutes. The doctor was really caring and she was attentive to both how I was doing and our little man.

We had the follow up appointment today with a different doctor and the experience was just as good.

There is a little play room for the young ones, the staff were very friendly and helpful and the staff set me up in a private room so I could breast feed after the appointment.

The rooms also bulk bill which is handy to know

Q: Would I recommend the Blackburn Clinic?
A: Yes, as they caring and compassionate

I always have a really lovely experience coming to Blackburn Clinic, from speaking to the receptionists at the time of booking who are always really polite and helpful. I’ve been seeing Dr Melanie Hattotuwa through the years who has always shown me kindness and always has really insightful and considered advice. Thank you so much!

Fabulous clinic with lovely reception staff (in the 4 years I've been to this clinic I have never experienced any of the behaviour in these reviews) and exceptional doctors who have done a great job of helping me manage my chronic illness. Always receive an excellent level of care and they have gone above and beyond on more than one occasion. Would highly recommend.

I knew Blackburn Clinic,knew Dr.Aaron Zhang is from my son’s psychologist, Dr.Aaron talked with my son patiently and then changed the medicine accurately. Just two months, my son gets much much better. He enjoys going to the clinic to meet Dr.Aaron.Very professional and helpful .

My whole family attended this clinic in the past 8+ years, all the doctors are caring and very professional. Especially all the doctors are so good at dealing with kids, we are very appreciated of the helps and advices they provided.
