Shambolic practice. Avoid at all costs.
I booked a milia consultation on the 12th August, for the 19th August at 8:40am. As documented, the cost of this consultation was £0. I paid a £50 holding/reservation fee. The consultant sees me at 8:55am, and I leave his room at 9:15am. He tells me he cannot remove the milia, after prodding it, because it isn’t a milia. As I leave, he tells me it will only be the consultation cost, which, as I have documented, was £0!
I go downstairs to leave, and the receptionist (that’s all I’ll call her) treats me like a criminal walking off without paying. They charge me a consult fee and a milia removal (despite not having it removed). I insist the consult fee was booked for £0 and she says no.
I am now around £400 out of pocket for nothing, and was totally embarrassed and ashamed by the way this staff member treated me. As I got back to my car, I noticed something. At 9:21am, a “new appointment” was made for me at 8:50am, so after the fact. Presumably so they could charge me for the consult fee when I originally had it booked for £0.
I’ve lodged a formal complaint to their head office. The way the reception staff member and “dr” jeremy halfhide treated me is appalling. I believe there is an element of corruption here based on them booking an entirely new appointment for me whilst I was on the middle of arguing about the price. Avoid this rude, corrupt stain on Harley street.
