Dr Thom was always welcoming and courteous, willing to listen and carefully explained the reasons for any change in my medication. I am delighted with my progress as is Dr Thom. I will not hesitate to see him again should I have the need. I am most grateful for his care and advice over the last 2 years

Dr Thom has been most helpful on each occasion when I've consulted him.
