I went to see Dr Cartwright because I was having issues with my HRT. He listened to my concerns, took the time to understand what I was experiencing, and changed me to a new HRT. What impressed me most was his dedication to his patients. Even after injuring his foot on a climbing trip, he still made the effort to come in and continue looking after his patients. That really showed me how committed and compassionate he is. I truly appreciate everything he has done for me and would highly recommend him to anyone.
Mr Cartwright was pleasant and professional. He explained my case clearly and I am pleased with the initial consultation and his medical advice.
