I found Mr Rudd to be professional and personable. He took his time to listen to my concerns, answer my question’s and explained to me what I needed to know in a calm and informative manner. He carried out a minor investigative procedure during my appointment and I felt reassured by the time I walked out of his office.. His service was excellent and would totally recommend.
