We visited Mr Savanjeet Ratu at the Edgbaston clinic and he was extremely thorough and professional when looking at my son’s eczema which was infected and a possible insect bite. A combination of medicated cream and additional creams which helped to clear the issue. We were also made to feel reassured with the follow ups offered.
