- We had to wait over an hour for the appointment and nobody came to explain That would do be the only suggestion The Dr herself was excellentDoctor's response -Thank you for this review. I do apologise for the wait. Sometimes my patients are very complicated and their care takes much longer than usual. I do promise to give every patient the time that they need. When we are under COVID conditions the communication about waiting times has been more complicated. We will try to rectify this as much as we can.
