I have been a client of Dr Wood for the last 14 years, he is amazing. His work is flawless and he is a nice guy who will put you at ease. He invests in his facilities, gel comfort chair (so if your like me with a bad back it makes a big difference) pain free anesthetic, and a tv on the roof showing documentaries (with subs on) to help distract you.
