I really liked Dr Punukollu. He has a very caring manner and explained himself very clearly. He can sometimes be a bit disorganised and can sometimes speak over me, but I appreciate that can be necessary sometimes and that did not detract from the overall experience. Our most recent appointment, he was very patient and insightful and it was a great help.
