“From start to finish Dr Duncan has been welcoming, empathic, detailed and supportive in her assessment and feedback. My child was very nervous about attending the assessment but within minutes he was relaxed and chatting away as if he had known Morvwen for years! I was anxious about taking my child for a full assessment, wondering how he would cope and how I would understand the tests and subsequent results. Morvwen explained everything in such a way that it made sense and also reassured us in equal measure. I would highly recommend Dr Duncan to anyone who was beginning the journey of looking for diagnostic testing for their child. This report gives my child a voice now and for that we will always be grateful"
