Review summary

Christchurch Dermatology has received mixed feedback regarding patient experience and clinical care. Positive reviews highlighted long-term patients' satisfaction with continuity of care and described reception staff as helpful, while appointment reminders were noted as a useful service. However, a negative review reported that reception staff appeared disengaged, offered limited advice, and suggested the reviewer consult practitioners in other cities, raising concerns about accessibility for new patients. The clinic appears to retain established patients effectively, though experiences with initial consultations and new-patient engagement vary considerably.

I have been going to this clinic for years. From reception to medical staff everyone is fantastic and really helpful. They have literally saved my life.

— Jude Lavelle-Jackson

Fabulous service.

— Sooraj Nambiath · a year ago

Avoid this place. The reception staff showed no interest in engaging with me, and they offered little advice. If you’re not accepting new clients, it would be better to take down the website—what’s the point? The best suggestion I received was to see a doctor in Auckland or Wellington. Overall, there was a clear lack of empathy and professionalism. I do not recommend this establishment.

— Margaret Lavery

David is truly a very caring specialist and provides excellent service I am very grateful to be his patient

— Mia Wang

I have been with Dr David for nearly 5 years and he managed my condition perfectly well. They will send u a reminder prior your appointment, and receptionists are always very helpful and nice. Dr David is very patient and nice, very approachable and very professional. Strongly recommend him
