Globe Medical Adelaide reviews
73Very happy with the service at Globe. Dr Kass is very knowledgeable especially when it comes to travel medicine and the nurse was very quick with vaccinating my 4 year old.
Very happy with the service! GP, nurse, as well as receptionists, all of them are very nice and patient! I will definitely continue visiting there whenever I need!
Our experience with Global Medical Adelaide was a very good one. The doctor giving the consultation was very knowledgeable and spent 60 minutes with us explaining every aspect of our travel to South America that we could have wished for. We would have no hesitation in recommending this service to anyone travelling internationally.
Had a wonderful experience right from the reception to the Doctor's consultation. Dr Clive is very patient and answered all my queries with details. Definitely recommend it to people who are looking for trustworthy and non commercial advice.
Very friendly and helpful staff, easy electronic booking system and a lovely doctor who was very attentive and understanding
Very attentive staff and doctor. Communication with the practice was great, and the doctor was knowledgeable and friendly. My intention is to have Globe Medical as my go-to medical service in Adelaide, for as long as I stay here.
Thank you everyone!
Excellent service. Doctor had a great manner and took the time to get whole picture. We had to come to Adelaide as we live in doctor deprived country but it was worth the trip. Thank you to all at Globe
Dr Stacey is always very helpful and makes follow-up timely. He listens to my feedback patiently.
All staff at reception are very nice and helpful.
The waiting area is spacious and so is able to calm down me before seeing doctor.
Doctor was excellent, very thorough and gave excellent recommendations.
I have been to other travel vaccination places but this one is by far the best.
Friendly front of house staff. Waiting area comfortable. Medical practitioner efficient and thorough.
Been coming here for years and Elaine is a great doctor and listens to me. Their booking system is so easy to navigate and in instances where you need a doctor asap, they tend to have a spot available on a day at short notice.
I usually never review, I always prefer to thank everyone in person but I wanted to provide my review to this place. This is an absolute pleasure to review Global Medical Adelaide. I have been here with my baby twice for her vaccination. The staff here will go above and beyond to help me. They have rules and regulations regarding Covid, masks, checking your vaccination status etc.but that’s absolutely necessary for patients safety and I love it because I know coming here will be so much safer.
I always get different doctor and never had any troubles in fact they helped me both times to understand about the vaccination for kids, baby development, kids growth chat etc.
Nurse Sandra is my absolute hero, she has vaccinated my daughter twice and god bless her. She took care of my baby like her own. Both times she was very empathetic and stayed with me because I was a bit upset to see my baby in pain. She is also highly recommended for baby vaccination because she did it seamlessly both times. She stayed and help me pack up and she has done it multiple times. I will always count on Sandra and feel so comfortable coming here. Thank you so much A very happy customer X
I moved from the USA to Adelaide with my Australian wife 3 weeks ago. I made an appointment here to get established with a GP in Australia.
Dr Stacey spent half of our short appointment complaining about foreigners like me coming to Australia and skipping the country without paying their bill. He then told me “you need to jump through hoops to convince me” to prescribe a controlled substance medication that I currently prescribed for mental health.
He also refused to give me a referral to a rheumatologist for my Rheumatoid Arthritis, saying I should call rheumatologists to find an appointment and THEN he’ll write a referral. He also complained that my RA medication, Enbrel (etanercept), “costs the tax payers a fortune. ”
I called several rheumatologists and every one of them told me they can’t tell me anything without a referral.
Dr Stacey utterly failed me. I left this clinic in worse shape than I arrived. I ended up having a panic attack and calling the mental health crisis line because Stacey made me feel like a thief and made me think no one in this country would give me the medication that stops my body from becoming so painful that I consider suicide.
The mental health crisis line gave me names of better clinics that she said will treat me with the respect I deserve. I will be contacting them tomorrow. I also gave her Stacey’s name as well as this clinic.
To the staff, I will say: it should go without saying but cancel my appointment on Tuesday. I’m a permanent resident of Australia and deserve better care than I received today. Stacey made me feel like a low life that skips bills and causes a burden to the tax payers.
Also, I am a tax payer, you geriatric.
My GP with this clinic was fully booked till June, so they arranged my appointment with another GP as I need to renew my prescription. This situation happened before and that GP bulked bill. The appointment only took 10 min.and this GP didn't do bulk billing. It is a big rip - off as I paid extra $40 for a prescription worth $40.
Have been seeing Dr Bob Kass at Globe Medical for years for travel medicine, advise and vaccines. His knowledge is truly amazing and his enthusiasm for travel and adventure is contagious. Highly recommend.

I have to say that all of my GP experiences in Adelaide CBD in the last 6 years have been pretty bad so I am starting with a very low baseline here and that I have an utter aversion towards any GP clinic interaction.
Sadly there's no way around it, that I know of.
They request new masks (disposable ones) to be worn on the premises and won't allow reusable ones.
Appointment times are hardly ever kept and I always had to wait, despite always arriving on time or even earlier. I know it's a domino effect with other patients being late, but surely they can cater for some buffer time between appointments, instead of booking them back to back. A clinic waiting room is not an ideal way to spend my lunch break!
The facilities and location are ok
The GPs I interacted with are ok and although some do stick to the usual one-size-fits-all approach, I am pleased with the one I currently have (have changed 2 tines so far at this clinic).
I have a feeling the reception desk staff is acting very bluntly and defensive out of fear of consequences, so management could probably be better. If that's not the case then the reception staff is definitely in the wrong job and industry.
If you find a better clinic, please let me know!:)
Dr Michael Stacey is excellent. Kind, empathetic and a sense of humour. Staff at reception are always pleasant and efficient. Thank you.
The staff working there were so nice as well the GP as well. I felt so comfortable there. Got treatment very well.
Thank you Globe Medical
