Dr Reed is a lovely Dr. I originally booked an appointment for 15h00 - and was called to move my appointment 20min earlier, to 14h40. I did accommodate the request; however, I waited till after 15h00 to see Dr.
Dr. Reed is an absolutely caring doctor. Actually both doctors and the interim doctor are ♥️ Dr. Reed takes her time to help you, she called me several times when I was very sick, with a rare bacterial infections. I'm her patient for a year now and can highly recommend the Helderberg Family practice.
Dr. Reed is a doctor who truly takes the time to listen and address your concerns. She ensures you feel heard and never rushed, treating you like an individual rather than just another patient. She's professional and approachable that makes it a comfortable experience, and you can trust that your health is in good hands.

Dr Reed is the best.....we love going to her.She is so patient and takes such a personal interest in her patients. Will recommend her to my friends and family.
My first visit with Dr Reed ensured that she would become my primary physician. She has a warm and kind beside manner. Dr Reed’s consultation was very thorough and she pays special attention to detail. I’ve struggled with asthma for a long time and unlike many doctors that would just give a prescription to treat symptoms and send you on your way, Dr Reed took the time to make sure I fully understood my condition, the medication she was prescribing and how it should work to treat the condition and not just treat symptoms. She advised me of what to look out for and encouraged me to schedule a follow up to ensure that my condition gets under control and that I have the best possible recovery. Dr Reed offers exceptional medical care.

Dr Reed is amazing. Really takes her time to do a thorough check-up and you don't feel rushed or just a number.
It was easy, quick and professional. One was always kept informed. Only suggestion is that the options given for what needs doing is too small. My issue didn't fit any of the options. I shall however use it again where necessary.
