Having seen Dr Packham in clinic today for a consultation, he addressed my concerns exceptionally, communicating with me in an understandable language. I felt heard and not rushed, Dr Packham was incredibly professional and explained further treatment options to which I was extremely grateful He helped me feel more confident about my next steps. I was seen around 10 mins ot so of my appointment time. I would highly recommend Dr Packham to anyone seeking a thorough, very knowledgeable and compassionate specialist.
