This was my first consultation with Dr Ball. She was empathetic, professional and efficient, with MRI scans ordered, and a follow-up inside the next 3 weeks already planned.
Gave me plenty off time to explain my issues did not rush the visit & gave me a clear plan to move forward to hopefully a good recovery
A very lovely , Kind , attentive doctor who took time to explain all issues and more. Have some things to follow up with Dr Ball.
