Professional, friendly staff and highly recommend Dr Behrens
Dr Behrens is excellent, very thorough and always so understanding, accommodating and helpful, nothing is too much trouble
Brian is an excellent GP - he took the time to thoroughly review my history, explain everything clearly, and provide thoughtful, well-considered suggestions.
An excellent caring dr. Takes time to listen. Have been seeing him for many years and can highly recommend him.
Very impressed with Dr Behrens.
Caring Dr who actually had the time to listen even if there are people waiting, never feel rushed.
Excellent doctor and love the new practice
Dr Behrens is a welcome addition as part of my medical care team as he listens to his patient first.
Very calm practice with a cozy atmosphere.
Long time patient. Always attentive and thorough.
I was impressed with Dr Behrens clinical acumen and his attention to detail.
I loved the new venue. The online booking was a breeze. And Dr Behrens was helpful and caring.
We are so happy with Dr Behrens. My boys and I have been seeing him for years, and can't recommend him enough. Such a warm, kind, caring and knowledgeable doctor.
Dr Behrens is a fantastic family doctor. We have been with him for a number of years and he has been incredible. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for an attentive, thorough & caring Doctor.
Absolutely fabulous doctor… would highly recommend!!
Excellent care in a lovely location
Always so caring and kind. The best doctor anyone could ask for
Beautiful practice, great service
I've known Brian as a patient for a number of years. He is highly professional, personable, and efficient. A top notch doctor.
Best Dr ever, always spot on with diagnoses
Dr Brain has become a very special part of our family health. He is also incredibly kind and patient with my little ones and goes over and above to accommodate and help our family. You cannot go wrong with him as your family GP
Your online booking platform made my life a lot easier, as I was able to see which timeslots were available at first glance. :) The driveway and entrance to the Practice are welcoming and it was easy to park. The receptionists are accessible and friendly. The waiting area is modern and comfortable with lots of light coming in from the lovely bay window - and I love the turquoise green colour scheme. Dr Behrens rooms are bright and modern . Overall it was a very pleasant visit to Dr Behrens , who is always friendly and gracious, yet professional . Many thanks Jenny Jones
Always love seeing Dr Behrens. He is very thorough and kind
Dr Behrens is highly professional, knowledgable and helpful.
Dr. Behrens is a phenomenal physician . I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him in a heartbeat. The only qualm I have is the waiting time. Since attending his new practice, I have had to wait over 40 minutes to be seen for each consultation.
Dr Behrens always goes the extra mile and his new premises are very good.
Very happy to be a patient of Dr Behrens.
Dr Behrens is a kind, caring and compassionate professional doctor. I fully entrust my health conditions to him. A really lovely guy.
Looks at client holistically. Listens to what one says before giving input
I am very happy with the service but find it a bit annoying that I am forced to provide a comment that is at least 30 characters long. Maybe next time I just won't bother. I am happy with Dr Behrens but I don't like this system. My recommendation is that you change the system. Hope this comment is long enough.
It doesn't bother me at all if Dr Behrens runs a little late because I know that if I ever need a little extra time I'll get the same care and attention.
Thank you Very attentive and courteous. A new GP practice with much promise
So happy I've change to Dr. Behrens. He listens so well and is so compassionate and helpful. He is also so great with my 1year old daughter.
Easy to make a booking. Lots of parking and lovely friendly staff and of course a great GP.
Professional , caring & thorough - repeatedly the best GP experience.
Brian is such an amazing and caring GP - would highly recommend his services!
Very happy, excellent manner, kind and direct. happy to recommend to anyone
Dr Behrens has to be the most caring and attentive GP I have ever had. I would highly recommend him to family and friends
Been going to Dr Behrens for years and always gets 5 star treatment and always spot on with diagnoses. Thank you Dr Behrens
Professional, efficient, and helpful: both Dr Behrens and receptionist LeeAnn
Dr Behrens is, by far, the best GP I have ever been to. I cannot recommend him enough. His passion, commitment and dedication to his patients is just not found anywhere else.
Dr Behrens is our family Dr for a while now and we will never go to any other Dr! Best experience and best advice! He always take the time to genuinely listen and ensure he assists in the best way possible.
Great Doctor. Would be awesome if he could add my network to his list Iof Medaid but otherwise 10/10
Dr. Behrens takes the time to listen carefully and explains everything in a way that’s easy to understand, always showing a high level of respect and empathy. My experience with Dr. Behrens has been excellent, and I recommend him highly to anyone seeking a compassionate and dedicated doctor.
Always feel better and more able to cope after my visit
Dr Behrens really listens and truly cares about his patients. I have been his patient for a long time and his demeanour has been consistently gentle. kind and unwaveringly professional.
Had to recently change Doctirs and was advertised to see Dr Behrens. So happy I went to see him. He is kind and understanding and made me feel comfortable at the very first visit.
This was my first visit to Dr Behrens new address and I found it bright and modern. Plenty of secure parking
Dr Behrens is one of the best doctors! He’s kind, patient and does not rush your appointment. I would recommend him any day.
I had the first appointment of the day and Dr Behrens was on time. He was empathetic and informatative during the consultation. Once my bloods had been analyzed, he responded very quickly and provided an easy-to-understand interpretation.
Dr Behrens is very caring and knowledgable. He has a lovely manner and makes the patient feel very comfortable and confident in his abilities.
I will never go to any other doctor.
Dr Behrens is wonderful - knowledgeable, skilled, kind, caring, etc. - all the qualities one wants in a doctor.
A wonderful caring doctor who is thorough in getting a diagnosis
Very thorough and professional. Communicates well.
Very good service indeed , wait time a little long
A fantastic modern professional GP.
Beautiful peaceful environment and Brian is an amazing person and a wonderful doctor who really cares about his patients
Very compassionate doctor, which I feel listen to what I am saying.
Dr Behrens came across as very thorough and caring. His communication was excellent.
The wait time was awhile but now I know that he takes care of the patients so I can easily work while waiting as his waiting rooms are very relaxing.
As always Dr Behrens is one of the best GP ‘s I have ever gone too.
I highly recommend using RecoMed booking system. The platform makes it incredibly convenient to see available time slots that suit your schedule, eliminating the hassle of calling the reception to book an appointment.
It takes the pain out of engaged lines or unanswered calls
An excellent GP and he has Physio training which really does help in some situations.
