I had an appointment yesterday and Mr Wilson was very nice. I felt much more positive when I left as he was quite reassuring that certain illnesses may not be the cause of my discomfort and weight loss. He organised tests/scans very quickly so I would like to say a big thank you as I have had 6 months of symptons and it has all been very worrying and impacting my daily life. He was professional, listened and reassured me. Thanks again

I received excellent care from Mr Wilson. The tests to establish a diagnosis were very thorough indeed and the liaison with additional Trusts very reassuring. I was given clear explanations and treated with kindness and respect. Thank you, Mr Wilson.

Your trust is our top concern, so providers can't pay to alter or remove reviews.
