What Doctors Say About Our Work

A high quality practice manager and medical secretary is essential to the development of a successful private practice. Prior to 2005 I had a modest practice that had been managed by a succession of very good secretaries, however none had taken any great interest in developing my work. In 2005 I had the good fortune to come across Sue Wilcox who over a number of years has worked diligently to transform my private work and create one of the largest ENT practices in the Midland …

I have been working with Sue for 24 years. I could not have had a more efficient and reliable private secretary. She has superb organizational skills, a strong customer focus coupled with the initiative to make life easy for her consultants. She has excellent attention to detail in report writing and can always be relied on to get things right first time.

Mrs Susan Wilcox was my medico-legal secretary for 8 years until my retirement.

She combines calm efficiency with excellent secretarial skills and the ability to use her initiative. She has an excellent manner with patients.

And Here’s What Some Of Their Patients Are Saying

My thanks to you for all the effort you have put in, with great efficiency and politeness.

Please know that you are NOT “a lowly medical secretary” to me!! Just one of the kindest people it has been my privilege to encounter. And I so appreciate—not least at this awful time—that you have cared enough to respond to me so helpfully.

I truly believe that it is very important to make those who make your life that little bit easier aware of the good work they do! After all, if it wasn’t for people like you and Pete, people like me would be super stressed. You have both always been exceptionally helpful, going far beyond your duty and every single time I have ever needed a question answered or an extra appointment or just a little advice, you are super efficient and comforting. I for one feel I have your support during what has been a very difficult diagnosis. I really think you both need to know you are not only appreciated but also valued. I only wish we could replicate you both and send you out to my other new friends diagnosed with the same as me. Most don’t have support or even confidence in their team.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
