I am enormously grateful to Nicola Roche and her team for the trouble they took with diagnosis, surgery, treatment, and follow-up care. I particularly appreciated the thoroughness at the diagnostic stage, and the timeliness and clarity with which Nicola explained everything. I felt in the best hands from the outset, and comfortable with asking any question, even irrational ones. I had a very positive outcome from surgery, and meticulous post-operative care. Thank you.
