Aditi is a genius. She understands exactly why people snore and how moving the lower jaw very slightly forwards- in my case 7mm - quite literally stops the snoring. Of course it takes a while to get used to having a top and bottom mouth guard in your mouth. But it fits like a glove and quickly one gets used to it. You sleep much better. You breathe through your nose rather than mouth - which is better for you. You have more energy in the day. And your partner is ecstatic that they no longer have broken nights of sleep because of a snoring bed fellow!

As my father taught me, many years ago, you get what you pay for in this life. The device supplied is of the best quality; the consultations, fitting and explanation equally so.

When I first met her she was too busy telling me about her trip to India and how bad it was that she had to pay the slightest amount for food in the hotel as if a 5 start room on free of charge wasn't good enough in addition flights added. Then she decided to tell me about her visit to A&E and how they should have treated her better and faster since she was a doctor, which reminds me of the reference "all animals are equal but some more equal than others" then she went on a vague description of how sleep works without bothering to answer any of my questions and out of the kindness of her heart (which I thought at the time) she said my next appointment would be free of charge as all part of the service os spending over £3000 with her. Turns out that next appointment would be a 30 second phone call and wouldnt see me without paying another £195 for what would probably be a 5 minutes convossation, You just couldn't make this up. Anyways I wouldn't recommend her to get me a pint of milk from the shop and a complete waste of money. If you have a couple of thousand to spare I'd go to Turkey and have a holiday and treatment done better like i did. Best of luck guys
I am sorry you have felt this was as poor a consultation as you have written. It is of course, factually Incorrect! Unfortunately I was not able to be meet your expectation within your budget and when I had to be brutally honest, you were upset. Of course, you are entitled to seek help elsewhere but not with me in this instance I provide a service second to none and am proud of the reviews you see on my profile I wish you all the best with your treatment. .
