Make sure you are prepared to wait up to 2 hours from the time of your appointment. Their services are obviously in high demand. Take a good read with you to pass the time. Also be prepared to make another appointment in a few weeks time, they are usually already booked out over weeks,as their time is precious. Also, one final and important note. Check and be aware that if your appointment is made for 8am to be there before the doors open, as other patients have the same time booked in. You will NOT be seen based on first in first served.
