Explanation

Sam is experienced, knowledgeable and responsive - Sam has the unique ability to be child centred whilst still empathising with the parent and supporting both children and parents navigate difficult and upsetting medical conditions and treatment plans. Sam cares for/treats both of our children and has supported our eldest child for eight years navigating life threatening food allergy, chronic eczema and asthma (against the complicated back drop of allergic eye disease). We are so appreciative (and relieved) to have Sam's expertise in our children's lives!
