Very disappointed at the lengh of time waiting for appointment. It was for 9am today, arrived 8-50am , there was at this time alot of patients sitting, booked in and took a seat, noticed that when other patients booked in some of them were been taking care of in front of us and of others that had been waiting., Eventually just after 10am called for eye test and drops, then understandable another wait, then told to go and sit down and another wait. The problem from watching seems to be alot of 9am appointments and all to have tests and drops, and to see different consultants, , and only one room to do all these patients. The times should be staggered, the consultant is excellent and the problem does not seem to be with them but the system when patients arrive. I would not recomend this clinic for the reason, lengh of waiting time is very bad.9am appointment leaving 11-10am.It is the same every time
