What Our Patients Say About PRP
Both the staff at reception and the MRI technicians were incredibly friendly and efficient. I arrived 30 mins prior to my appointment, as recommended, however was called through within a few minutes and was walking back to reception by the time of the actual appointment. Thank you to everyone there for a very smooth process!
