Testimonials
What our clients are saying about us.
“I took my son, 11, for his first appointment with Jerome. My son has learning disabilities and is autistic, pre-verbal, very anxious in clinical settings. Jerome was fantastic, asked me appropriate questions at the beginning, so he could make it stress-free and a productive appointment engaged warmly but in a low key way with my son. This helped him to feel safe and relaxed and able to follow the instructions and we got a good overall assessment completed. When you find a great Professional who just ‘gets it’ it’s a huge relief! Now I know my son’s vision is going to be fully supported.”
“My four boys and I have been with Barnards for many years after a friend referred me to them. We have always been very well looked after by all the staff and nothing is too much trouble, however big or small. I would highly recommend Barnards as the personal touch of care always comes through.”
“Jerome and the team at Barnards have looked after me for many years and I can’t rate them highly enough! Very relaxed and friendly atmosphere and the staff feel at ease.”
“I have been here since I was a kid and they looked after me fantastic then and they still do now, they are amazing, lovely and helpful, and do anything for you. I recommend them to everyone.”
“I have been going to Barnards for over 30 years, Jerome takes care of me and explains everything clearly and simply, without patronising, I cannot rate them highly enough.”
