Titration of medication was done well. Appropriate time between dose changes. Always had a supply of medication. Prescriptions sent to my local pharmacy which was convenient. Description of my experience on each dose was taken seriously and attentively. Good advice given on how to take medication. Felt like I was a stakeholder in treatment and not just talked at/dictated to. When I made requests, such as requesting a afternoon 'booster' dose, this was taken seriously and dealt with professionally. Liked that other medical issues were also taken into consideration when discussing effectiveness of treatment. Liked that b.p. readings taken at home were considered as clinic b.p. readings were affected by 'white coat' effect. All questions I had were answered fully.
Would have liked more of a say on time of appointments (afternoon rather than early mornings), but understand clinic is very busy and this may not be possible. Would like a more direct line of communication to the clinic (phone/e-mail), rather than having to go through a general phone line and have messages be relayed.
Overall experience of the service was friendly, attentive, professional and that I was taken seriously throughout.
