Avril is the best. She's thorough. She's personable. She acts like she asks questions in a manner which she really cares about the patient. If there was a staff member like her around, there would be no competition because you wouldn't have any competition because she would just surpass it all. She's excellent. I can't say anymore. I wouldn't go to anybody else. Bye.

It is very easy to find positive words to describe my patient visits with Avril. Professional, personable, communicative, thorough, altruistic, dedicated listener, excellent medical knowledge..... The list could easily continue and if there was a rating beyond 10 Avril would exceed those requirements. Every time I depart a consultation with her there is no doubt in my mind I have not had the best possible care.
