As always I welcome the opportunity to talk to Dr Bruce-Jones. My family stresses have increased significantly in the past 3 months and I have also experienced some worrying health issues. Dr Bruce-Jones talks me through my concerns in a gentle, compassionate manner which helps me enormously. I am very grateful for his wise counsel and help

The consultation was conducted in a professional manner with the doctor being clear and concise. I do not feel particularly closer to solving my problems but left with slightly more understanding of what they are. My summary was sent to my GP despite mentioning I was unsure if I wanted this - I will have to trust the doctor’s judgement in that it might be useful in the future. My summary also did not include some of the potential treatments mentioned for the main issue I was experiencing. A brief reminder or a few links would have been very helpful. Thank you.
