I switched from my old dentist because they were too expensive and they recommended this dentist who did 'drill and fill'. What a mistake! This dentist is wonderful- I feel very comfortable (considering lol) and trust the staff who are very friendly and don't tell you off for everything. It has the vibe of a local business and they don't seem like they are out to get every penny out of you that they can. It's a 'settled-in' dentistry, comfortable with themselves and their business. Although my old dentist is less than 5 minutes away and this one is about 20 minutes away, I much prefer them.

Great husband and wife team. Very friendly and they really 'connect' with clients and remember details about your life. And yes they have really helped me with my neck problems, as well as my brother's back, my mother's shoulder, and her construction worker boyfriend's back. They are easy to talk to and even blokes who don't go to doctors feel comfortable there. Good value and friendly receptionist too.

Approximate cost: $48

I was a member of this gym for a little over a year. I found some of the staff better than others- my assessor was great and able to put me at ease and show me how to exercise correctly. I also enjoyed the fitball class which was in what is now the spin room. However, I find the class sizes too large and the instructors more interested in their clients that attended weekly rather than new people. The classes were also not geared adequately towards beginners and the timetable seemed to be constantly changing or under review. Fitball was cancelled at there is a focus on Les Mills classes rather than letting instructors develop their own classes and styles.

Having now tried different gyms, I can see that class instructors did not go 'above and beyond' to make you feel comfortable or to motivate you- it was a sort of 'take-away' facility whereas I prefer a much more 'community-minded, personable' sort of gym.
I do like the adults swimming pool and spa and their lockers. I have always found this leisure center to be good value and never had to wait long to sign in or ask a question at reception.

I have recently started attending gym classes at this leisure center, having previously used the Coburg Leisure center. The classes are much, much smaller here- the classes I have been to have typically 6-8 people in them and the instructor is wonderful and very engaging with you. The atmosphere is very friendly, no doubt partially from smaller classes.
The venue is somewhat rundown- and you have to bring your own yoga mat but this is more than made up for by the terrific and friendly staff.
A casual class pass is $10 and there are discounts for buying 10 or 20 or classes are free if you are a member of the gym. They also have classes specially for seniors, and rehabilitation classes. There are concessional discounts for seniors and consession card holders.

I've been taking my dog to this vet for many years. The vets have advised me about my dogs conditions (cancer and arthritis) and my dog receives monthly injections for his arthritis from a veterinary nurse, which is cheaper than seeing the vet all the time just for his shots.
The vet initially recommended an expensive specialist place for my dog to be tested as to specifically what sort of cancer he has and what stage it is at. However she later called and said she had found a much cheaper research place to have the tests done at (at 1/3 the price).
The staff are friendly and try to put my dog at ease with pats and liver treats, even though he almost takes their fingers off when they offer the liver treats. I can usually get same day or next day appointments and there is easy parking.
