PATIENT TESTIMONIALS
Really felt listened to
Clair
For the first time, I felt listened to and understood. Dr Stewart was kind, and patient and didn’t rush me even though I tend to flit from one topic to another. The whole process was very easy and I will be making a follow up appointment.
Michelle
Nicola was very thorough and explained everything really clearly. I felt better educated, reassured and able to take action. I have made changes since the appt and feel better already.
Alice
Dr Stewart was friendly and empathetic. She listened to my history and whilst I am still struggling with symptoms I do feel she will help me get the correct treatment.
Claire
I felt we had a very thorough discussion about my health and HRT options. I felt listened to, not dismissed as with my own GP. I was relieved to not be asked to do lots of additional tests before proceeding with the HRT, as I have had a lot of blood tests etc over recent years.
