I was a very nervous patient. Dr Phillips immediately put me at my ease. He was gentle and reassuring. He explained in detail the procedure and listened patiently to my questions. I barely felt pain. I cannot thank him and nurse April enough for their kindness and patience.

Dr Philips is a credit to your hospital. He was friendly, professional and knowledgeable about my skin condition and put my mind at ease with any questions i had. I also asked about a couple of moles that i was concerned about and he was happy to check these for me, again explaining what types they were and what changes to look put for. Thank you so much x
