A most thorough and sympathetic interaction, patient in explanation of the situation and possible implications. Setting up the requirements for the operation involved much chasing due to external pressures; these were done effectively.

It was a consultation only at present. The whole experience was enjoyable and the information gathered from the visit was able to put my mind at rest.
