What patients say about Sally Cubbin
I first saw Dr Cubbin some 4 four and a half years ago when she provided a very detailed review and diagnosis of my condition(s). I have seen her on numerous occasions since as she has continued to treat and support me. I would unhesitatingly recommend her both for her skill as a practitioner and also for her helpful and reassuring approach. As a young adult with ADHD it's hard to find help and support when you need it and I'm very grateful to Dr Cubbin for making herself available when I've needed it, often at short notice.
