Dr Balfour is professional, good communicator and is very good in listening to concerns and spelling out in plain language so there is a mutual understanding. He explains what my issue is, and what my options are, and I am not medically pressured but actually has a say in decisions about my body and healthcare.

The doctor took his time to explain everything to me. When I ask questions, he took his time to explain them. He did not talk over my head. When I ask for clarification, he made sure that I understood what he was talking about.
