"I needed a last minute consultation for impacted ear wax. Dr Williams was able to accommodate me very quickly and I had a great experience. I would recommend her!"
"I feel like Dr Williams has changed my life. For the first time in years I'm breathing properly and this has helped me sleeping properly too. She is so kind and explains everything so well. Thank you Dr!"
"I foolishly ignored the bad reviews here and made a consultation for my boyfriend. I was horrified to find out that over and above the base fee, she charged additional fees for basic hearing tests. He left her practice being told that there is nothing wrong. When I made a follow up enquiry questioning her approach, she accused my boyfriend of not asking the right questions during his appointment. I was mortified. I expressed my dissatisfaction and was asked to rather let my boyfriend phone her. So he did. And he was promised a script that afternoon. It's been over a month and we are yet to receive anything! For someone who claims to put her patients first, I'm shocked at the service!"
"Dr Williams was so informative, patient and listened to every single concern of mine, She really does explore all options before issuing a diagnosis, and a solution/way forward. I am truly grateful, I can’t remember the last time I walked out of a consultation happy! I highly recommend her!."
"Dr Williams is an excellent doctor. Her examinations are thorough and precise. She explores all options before issuing a diagnosis. She also made a plan to see me at very short notice due to the severity of my symptoms, which was greatly appreciated. Dr Williams is also very personable and makes one instantly feel comfortable. You really get the impression that she truly cares for her patients. Thank you, Dr Williams."
"I have suffered with chronic sinus for over 20 years. Dr Gary Kroukamp came recommended to me, and I'm so glad he was. From the initial consultation, to the quick and efficient surgery, he was professional, kind and understanding. Thoroughly happy with my 'new' nose, I feel like a new man!"
