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.
