Smile Medicals - any recommendations?

We have just received our request for medicals (only 4 WEEKS since receiving our AOR!).
Does anyone have any experience, good or bad, to share on where is best to get medicals carried out in UK - we have the list and would probably be looking at anyone London and South. Am sure they all have to follow the same guidelines, but am equally sure some are nicer than others!
I know these questions have been asked on this forum before, but unfortunately the search facility doesn't seem to be working at the moment.
Thank you for your help.

Hi - we used Oxford's Manor Hospital. Rate them excellent and they do everything under one roof. Sent our results to CHC within a week of taking medicals.

Good luck! J

I can definitely recommend Knightsbridge. We had ours done at the beginning of December and they were very friendly and efficient. Both my husband and I were completed in about 45 mins. Also, they do the x-rays on site so no need to go elsewhere for them. They get my thumbs up.

If you don't mind me asking,what route did you apply under and what is your profession?

That is an incredibly quick timeline!! You lucky sod!

Sorry I can't help with regards to your meds.

Applied under Skilled Worker with a job offer already approved. I'm a Bricklayer by trade and secured a job offer in Calgary in November 05, approved (AEO) December, Application for PR submitted January 16th 06, AOR received February 20th and request for medicals today. Can't believe how fast it's all moving now - AOR stated a six month processing period.
Hope it helps - I understand trades are in high demand, especially in Calgary, which is where we are headed.
Good luck!
