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.
A routine visit, went well.
Seen quickly. Good, helpful appointment. Dr has good knowledge of my individual condition.
The consultant was so understanding and gave back an amazing chat and check up for my mum made us understand everything she needed to know

It's always great to see Dr Sunmboye However, I would like to recommend a telephone appointment for all future appointments if this can be accommodated
Excellent explanation, assessment of the current situation and changes needed and consideration for future possible outcomes and potential treatnent paths. Felt very supported and looked after.
