Dr Mbaya takes a very personal approach to patient care. He has a lovely bedside manner and an excellent sense of humour. His scientific explanation of the disease of addiction helped my understanding greatly and also made me realise that I have been ill as opposed to being someone simply lacking willpower or moral fortitude, as I previously thought of myself.
