Both Miss Baines and Geraldine the breast care nurse were empathic, understanding and reassuring. I was extremely anxious and both professionals took time to really listen and learn about me as a person, as well as finding out about my medical concern. I highly would recommend both practitioners. Thank you both for your time.
