Please note that unfortunately, owing to an unprecedented number of referrals, we have a long waiting list of at least 7-9 months before we are able to offer an appointment. If you would like to be placed on our waiting list do contact us by email and we will send you the appropriate information. Unfortunately we are currently unable to respond to phone messages left by new enquiries due to the high volume of calls we are receiving. We apologise that we are not able to provide support sooner.
