Dr Bordbar was very thorough and clearly understood my condition well, and went on to apply the appropriate treatment which was successful.

I booked my private GP appointment at short notice, Dr Bordbar was welcoming, kind, informative and understanding. Took genuine interest in my allergy / hives issue and discussed options and recommendations. I feel more informed, have options, supported and cared for. Sincere Thankyou from me!

Dr Bordbar is an exceptional GP. I was offered a same day appointment. From the moment I arrived he made me feel comfortable and genuinely listened to. His bedside manner is outstanding..calm, kind, patient and very reassuring. His excellent clinical competence and ability to perform an ultrasound scan for immediate reassurance was invaluable. He took the time to explain everything clearly. I would highly recommend Dr Bordbar - Private GP service.

Had an appointment with Dr Bordbar as a private patient. He provided an excellent and sympathetic examination, that also included an ultrasound to help get to the root of the matter. Recommended to anybody seeking a private GP in the Dorchester area.

It was my first time visiting the Olivene Clinic, and I can confidently say I have found the quality of care you cannot get anywhere else. Dr Medi took his time to throughly explain everything which makes you feel at ease. I had an ultrasound and couldn't be happier with my experience. I look forward to my next visit! Thank Dr Medi!

My experience with Dr Bordbar was excellent. I find he is a very thorough and caring GP. My consultation wasn't rushed and everything was explained well to me. I was also able to have a scan on site which helped to lift my anxiety. I was advised on a course of treatment that I am following. I highly recommend Dr Bordbar and his practise.

I chose to visit Olivine Clinic, specifically Dr Mehrdad Bordbar, who runs a weekly acupuncture clinic there. After suffering from near-daily headaches for almost 20 years, my own GP recommended Dr Bordbar, as nothing else had provided lasting relief. From the outset, Dr Bordbar was professional, polite, and genuinely empathetic. He took the time to fully understand my condition and the extent of my long-term suffering. After a thorough discussion, he felt that acupuncture was absolutely worth exploring. I proceeded with an initial gentle session in the clinic’s calm and pleasant surroundings. That first treatment marked the beginning of almost immediate relief. Dr Bordbar asked me to keep a record of when headaches occurred and their intensity (these are not migraines). Remarkably, I went four consecutive days without experiencing any headaches at all. Following my second and third, slightly more involved sessions, I was able to go one to two weeks without any symptoms — a change that quite literally transformed my life. I am now 18 months into treatment and have been headache-free for approximately 95% of this time. As a result, my appointments have been reduced to every three to four months simply as a “top-up,” with the reassurance that I can return at any time should symptoms begin to recur. I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr Bordbar’s acupuncture clinic. As a practicing GP as well as an acupuncturist, he has a deep understanding of complex medical issues, which was certainly evident in my case. I am incredibly grateful for the relief I have experienced and for taking those first steps toward lasting improvement. Thank you very much. Kind regards, John

My dad had the misfortune to become very ill a few days before Christmas and had to visit a private GP on short notice. Dr Bordbar at Olivine Clinic was able to accommodate him. He performed a full body examination and also reviewed his medical history. Based on his initial diagnosis my dad was referred to Same Day Emergency Care at Dorset County Hospital, where he was treated for his gallbladder. My dad found him to be very professional in his approach. He is a friendly person and kept my dad fully informed throughout. I would definitely recommend private GP Dr Bordbar.

Very successful acupuncture treatment at the Olivine clinic. Dr Bordbar always kind and understanding. We feel that we are listened to and treated according to our needs. Extremely happy with continuing treatment. It has made a huge difference to my 90 year old mum's life, Thank you so much.

I had a private GP appointment with Dr Bordbar for an ultrasound-guided joint injection and the experience was excellent from start to finish. The procedure itself was completely painless, which was a huge relief. The clinic environment was very comfortable, calm, and immaculately clean. The doctor was highly professional, took the time to explain everything clearly, and was very reassuring throughout the appointment. I felt well cared for and confident in the treatment I received. I would highly recommend this service to anyone considering a joint injection.

I had four acupuncture appointments with Medi for problems relating to my hip which had been causing pain on/off for about 10 years. I found a huge improvement after my first appointment, with slight improvement after each subsequent appointment. (I had previously seen a couple of NHS physiotherapists over the years and been given some exercises which I had done for about 3 months, unfortunately I found these exercises only made the problem worse). I was very impressed with Medi’s treatment. Medi is a gentle, sympathetic, yet professional, person. He takes time to listen and is always happy to answer any questions. I didn’t feel under any pressure to book endless appointments, I was very happy to leave things after our fourth appointment, knowing that I can contact Medi again for follow up treatment should it be necessary. The practice is easily accessible, with no steps, parking is also easy, the premises are bright, modern and clean. I have already recommended Medi’s services to friends, a friend had recommended him to me.

I highly recommend Olivine Clinic for Acupuncture. Having had sessions for headaches and migraines, the sessions have been helpful in easing my symptoms, as well as being very relaxing. Dr Medi Bordbar is a calming presence who puts you at ease straight away and takes time to answer your health questions. The clinic has a lovely, calming feel to it too. Having wanted to try acupuncture for a while, I'm so glad I found this clinic!

I first met Dr Bordbar in his role as a GP so I knew I was in good hands when I went to him for acupuncture treatment to help with anxiety and menopause symptoms. I feel so much better after only two sessions, with my symptoms much reduced, so wholeheartedly recommend him, for both acupuncture and as a GP.

why choose olivine clinic in Poundbury?

At Olivine Clinic, we believe healthcare should be about more than just managing symptoms—it should be about feeling in control of your health. Under the care of Dr Bordbar, we offer a distinct approach that bridges the gap between conventional excellence and holistic wellness.

A "Whole Person" Approach First: Our promise is that before reaching for the prescription pad, Dr Bordbar takes a comprehensive, whole-person view of your health. We believe the foundation of true well-being starts with the basics: your nutrition, environment, and lifestyle. These factors are always considered first when formulating your bespoke management plan, ensuring we treat you, not just your diagnosis.

Expertise in Functional Medicine: Dr Bordbar has completed advanced training with the Institute for Functional Medicine and achieved his AFMCP (Applying Functional Medicine in Clinical Practice). This qualification allows him to treat individuals as unique persons rather than a set of symptoms. By applying Functional Medicine principles, Dr Bordbar digs deeper looking at the complex interactions between your genetics, biology, and lifestyle. This systems-oriented approach ensures your care is proactive, not just reactive.

Integrative & Holistic Modalities: As a certified medical acupuncturist and a member of the Board of Trustees at the British Medical Acupuncture Society, Dr Bordbar incorporates a broad range of integrative modalities. He understands that health is not one-size-fits-all. When appropriate, he combines conventional medicine with personalised lifestyle and nutrition advice to create a truly holistic management plan.

Cutting-Edge Medical Technology: We combine this holistic philosophy with the latest medical technology. Routine assessments at Olivine Clinic feature advanced diagnostic tools, including:

  • Spirometry for detailed lung health analysis.

  • ECG devices for immediate heart rhythm monitoring.

  • State-of-the-art DL5 Dermatoscope for precise skin examinations.

  • Point of Care Ultrasound (POCUS), further enhancing the immediate diagnostic quality of your consultations.

Time to Care, Standards to Trust: While we always adhere to NICE Guidelines and the latest National and European protocols, Dr. Bordbar strives to go a step further. The luxury of time in a Private GP setting means we have the freedom to look at the person in front of us, tailoring evidence-based guidelines to fit your life, ensuring your care is appropriate, personal, and effective.
