I found my appointment very informative, Mr Govilkar was very kind and pleasant, he explained everything to me in a way I understood, there were 3 options for me, which he explained in full, and when I decided which option, he then went into detail what would happen with my procedure, the time scale for the wait before it happened. I was anxious when I went in, but came away relieved to be listened to and told something could be done to help my pain.
