I don’t usually leave negative reviews
I don’t usually leave negative reviews, but I’m sharing this in the hope that it helps the clinic improve its service and also helps other patients.
My daughter was diagnosed with PCOS and insulin resistance. We initially visited a private clinic in Latvia, where we were told she needed medication for insulin resistance. Unfortunately, our GP in the UK is unable to prescribe this, so we were placed on a waiting list to see a gynecologist, with a waiting time of up to two years.
Hoping to get help sooner, I contacted this clinic, explained our situation clearly, and booked an appointment. I paid a deposit, expecting we would finally be able to move forward. However, on the day of the appointment, I was told that the doctor could not prescribe the medication and that we needed to see an endocrinologist instead.
At that point, I appreciated the honesty and was encouraged when I was told they would contact an endocrinologist and get back to me shortly. I felt relieved, thinking we were finally making progress.
Unfortunately, that’s where things stalled. What was meant to take “a minute” has now turned into nearly three weeks. I have called around four times to follow up, but each time I was told they couldn’t help because the endocrinologist only works online and hasn’t responded.
I requested a refund last Wednesday, but a week later I am still waiting for it to be processed.
While the staff I spoke to were polite, the overall experience has been frustrating and disappointing. For a private clinic, I expected better communication, clearer guidance, and more efficient handling of the situation.
I truly hope the clinic improves its coordination and responsiveness, especially when dealing with patients who are already in stressful situations. There is definitely potential here, but better organization and follow-through are needed.
