Dr Thaneshvari (Teshni) Moodley - Benoni

I went to Dr. Moodley for the first time for my son's 6 month check up. As it was the first time she was meeting my baby, she told me she had lots of questions for me and was sure I had a long list to discuss with her too.

My son had a meltdown towards the end of the appointment when I was trying to ask quite a few of my questions and we were literally shouting over the crying to try and finish the consultation. Needless to say, I didn't get all the answers I needed so Dr told me not to worry and said I could email her.

When I emailed her with the 3 main questions I hadn't gotten answers to, I got a call from her office telling me I need to pay for an email/phone consultation if I wanted more of her time. She did not say this to me in the consultation and I do not expect to pay R1400 for an appointment just to be told I need to pay more just because my son was crying. I will not be returning for such rubbish, expensive service.

My baby was born on the 10th of Nov.
Dr Moodley was the pediatrician... so I phone the office to make 6week appointment. They close on the 18th and doesn't have space. All good... asked for appointment in Jan when they get back... so the lady tells me that she doesn't know when dr will be back in Jan... the office staff will be back on the 6th... I was told to phone back on the 7th or 8th... by then they should know when dr will return... WTF... how unprofessional is that...
