I was in and out within 45 minutes of arrival. I have known Dr Brookes for 22 years. His diagnosis and recommendations have always been clear, and his delivery sympathetic, but realistic. I would continue to use Carl’s professional services if I still lived nearby, but I no longer do, so he introduced to a suitable colleague nearer my home in Cornwall. ( I have since made an appointment with that colleague for 2 June). Dr Brookes with the assistance of his secretary, Karan White had issued their report to the relevant parties, including myself, within 4 hours just before a bank holiday weekend. My invoice was issued and paid before the close of the clinic that afternoon. Outstanding service thank you.
