I found my doctor to be thorough and take his time looking into my case. I had serious concerns before my appointment but now I feel listened to and I have appointments to come within a sensible time scale. The follow up email was crystal as it had actions for me (diet etc) and also a clear indication of what the doctor will do in the future. The nurse in attendance also took her time and spoke to me as an individual without a rushing to a time scale. I am very grateful for the time given by all staff during my visit.
