Extremely proffesional, personable. A very unique ability to be straight talking yet empathetic. Explained anything I didn't know (which was alot) along with the technical jargon. I am lucky enough to have private insurance with my work but if I did not I would find the money to experience this kind of proffesionalism. Thanks again
Dr Gera was fantastic, calm, able to explain everything clearly, gave me a lot of assurance
