“Our favorite cafe the cakes are the best and the value incredible.”

“I am in this Starbucks pretty much every single day, the friendliest loveliest staff and always great coffee, love this branch. There have been a few issues while it was being run by the previous manager, felt bad for the staff as nothing they were doing wrong at all, but since new management has taken over this last month there has been vast improvement and back on track again!”

“Staff are very pleasant and professional. My medication hadn’t been delivered and the staff asked to take my blood pressure to make sure I was okay, as they had to re-order. The pharmacy was clean and tidy, also.”

“Jay has put so much effort into making sure everything is safe, clean and comfortable for clients. Fabulous treatments and a great environment!”

“Great takeaway. Generous Those indulgent sweet dishes”

“Thank you for saving my tooth. Very professional and above all explains very well what he will do. Kindness and accuracy in treating patients by both the doctor and his assistant.”

“First time using Ranna Ghor. We had one issue - received chicken Tikka Masala instead of paneer. I called the restaurant and they were genuinely sorry and very apologetic and got us a replacement promptly. How they react to a problem is often how I judge a place and this was good customer service. As for the food... excellent all round and we will definitely use again. Impressed!”

“Lovely Chinese and go there often food always taste fresh”

“Lovely staff doing their absolute best! Been multiple times and seen the abuse the staff receive from entitled customers, ignore the 1 star reviews of this place it's just rude people crying because they didn't get their way (stores have rules and policies people!!). Keep up the great work and I will continue to enjoy your high quality coffee and excellent service and personalities!”

“There is a large variety of snacks and drinks to choose from at an amazing price when using a clubcard. The staff are friendly and pleasant to be around; in particular I’d like to appreciate Oury as she was very kind and helpful. I will definitely pay regular visits to this amazing Tesco :)”

“I wish I got the name of the lady who done my blood tests for me! She was so lovely and after telling her I was nervous (after a previous bad experience ) she reassured me and done everything she could to make me comfortable! Overall all the staff are so helpful and very welcoming!”

“Very thorough and caring. When I went for an appointment after not having seen a dentist for a long time and needed quite a bit of work, the attitude was very much ok, that was the past you're here now let's get everything fixed. I see Claudia and all the other staff I've had contact with have also been great.”

“good store, very convenient location, and friendly service”

“Potential Problems When Reducing and Discontinuing Neuroleptics Note: The following two sections are an excerpt translated by Markus Kaufmann (member of the expert committee) from Breggin 2013 (pp. 119 ff.). Dr. Peter Breggin is an American psychiatrist with extensive experience in reducing and discontinuing psychotropic medications. There is currently very little literature on this topic, particularly regarding the criteria for distinguishing between discontinuation symptoms and symptoms of the underlying psychiatric illness. "Any psychotropic drug can produce withdrawal or discontinuation symptoms. This occurs partly because the brain adapts to the psychotropic drug and is left in an abnormally compensated state when the dose of a medication is reduced or the medication is discontinued." ``` The following symptoms may occur when reducing and discontinuing neuroleptics: 1. Psychotic symptoms may occur during reduction and discontinuation as a result of changes in brain metabolism. They cannot always be reliably distinguished from the original psychotic disorder. They usually develop within days of the reduction and generally improve after 2–3 weeks. 2. Emotional lability or instability (such as anxiety, restlessness, paranoid reactions, depression, irritability, aggression, and increased energy). These also usually develop within days or weeks after reducing or discontinuing the medication. 3. Sleep disturbances can be distressing and contribute to instability. 4. Movement disorders (such as muscle stiffness, tremors, involuntary movements of the face, lips, jaw, tongue, arms, wrists, hands, fingers, legs, knees, toes, neck, shoulders, hips, restlessness) can, in rare cases, be pronounced and associated with restlessness and anxiety. 5. Cognitive impairments such as difficulty concentrating, attention deficit, forgetfulness, and distractibility. 6. Gastrointestinal problems such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, and abdominal pain. 7. Other physical symptoms such as flu-like symptoms including malaise, sweating, muscle cramps, paresthesia, rapid heartbeat, increased pain sensitivity, headaches, dizziness, and high blood pressure. The extent of these symptoms is significantly influenced by the size of the reduction step. Therefore, it is crucial to proceed slowly and with small reduction steps. Psychotropic medications are far, far more dangerous than the doctors who prescribe them would ever admit. I firmly believe that most people would never use psychotropic medications if they knew how dangerous they are, and I also believe that most doctors would stop prescribing them if they had any idea how dangerous they are. In 2003, the FDA added a warning about the increased risk of stroke to the U.S. prescribing information for risperidone. The same warning followed in 2004 for olanzapine and in 2005 for aripiprazole. Mood stabilizers are anticonvulsants that do not stabilize mood, but suppress emotional responses by sedating and calming people. Psychiatrists have never precisely defined this term. It's no surprise that doctors believe anticonvulsants work for mania, since anything that sedates people helps with mania. All information is provided without guarantee. This is simply meant to be constructive criticism that might help someone.”
