I have been seeking to understand the pain I have been in for the past 2 1/2 years, but due to moving to different areas and a general lack of support I got nowhere. Since moving to bedford I have been listened to far more, and Dr. Sunmboye made me feel important and like my problems mattered, instead of being disregarded and told I would get better "in a few weeks" as I have consistently been told elsewhere. His bedside manner was amazing and I could tell he was really trying to ensure he investigated all avenues to give me a diagnosis that actually fit.
