I went to my surgery, Tolegate Colchester. That was in mid November last year. I saw the nurse / practitioner Mandy. She gave me the best of care.
My cyst refused to go ! Several appointments later, Mandy arranged for an appointment at the Primary care centre Colchester. This was in the beginning of June.
I arrived on time and was taken into the surgery where my cyst would be removed. Dr Souza , who performed the operation , under a local anaesthetic was exceptionally kind and gentle. The two attendants that were also there showed the same care as the doctor.
The only pain I felt was from the anaesthetic needle. The operation was performed with extreme care and consideration.

Thank you for leaving your kind words which I have passed onto Dr Souza for their attention and to share with the wider dermatology team. I hope you are continuing to make a good recovery at home. Many thanks
