My consultation with Dr Harding was informative and helpful in understanding my own diagnosis I left with a better appreciation of my own condition and of the various options available to resolve or manage the situation Some tests were carried out on the day and others booked for the following week. There will be a follow up consultation with Dr Harding to review the results and decide on the way forward
