Very informative, consultant had a calm, friendly and professional manner. She ensured that I understood the process throughout and that I was comfortable, pain free and knew how to deal with the aftermath of the procedure. Could not have been better.
Thank you for the positive review. I was pleased to hear that you felt reassured throughout the procedure.
I was dealt with in a professional and friendly manner . The procedure was explained clearly and I was kept informed of what was happening throughout. The post-procedure care of the wound was fully explained
Thank you. I was pleased to hear that you had a positive experience under my care and hopefully the post operative recovery goes smoothly.
Had another bcc removed by Dr Thomson on My lower leg. I no longer live nearby but wouldn’t trust anyone else to be so so careful when I am having a procedure
I know it's a long way to travel but thank you for putting your trust in me.
Michelle is a lovely person with very high standards and everything went smoothly.
Thank you. I hope the post operative recovery goes smoothly too.
Dr Thomson was extremely professional and thorough in the consultation and explained the investigation clearly and discussed options. The procedure was also undertaken efficiently and professionally and she communicated clearly and with empathy throughout.
Thank you. I was pleased to hear that you had a positive experience under my care.
My experience with Dr Thomson and the team has been absolutely fantastic throughout. Everybody is so friendly and nice to chat to. Dr Thomson clearly and transparently explained the process of pulsed dye laser from beginning to end with different options put forward such as purpuric vs non purpuric settings and goal expectations. I’ve just had my second session and I’m really pleased with my results. Thank you :)
Thank you for sharing such positive feedback. I'm really pleased that your 1st PDL session gave you the expected results.
This is my third visit with Dr Thomson after a consultation a few years ago, and a more recent consultation following in a small procedure today. On each occasion Dr Thomson has been friendly and personable, has answered any questions I have and has been really reassuring.
Dr Thomson has been my trusted consultant dermatologist for many years. As always her competence and people skills were superb.
Excellent report with Dr Michelle Thomson who explained all procedures clearly and ensured that I was comfortable and with minimal discomfort. Have met Dr Thomson on a number of occasions and she consistently puts the welfare and understanding of the patient first. An outstanding practitioner.
Excellent communicator and was able to give me confidence in my decision to go forward with a biopsy. She was also able to put my mind at ease with her explanations and I trusted in her judgements. A fantastic service and would highly recommend.
Thank you. I'm really pleased that you trusted my judgement and decided to proceed with the biopsy.
