I thought this nurse was respectful, polite, and very helpful. He listened to what I said and picked out things to discuss that could be helpful, such as a new product to try. He explained why another product might not be helpful to prevent a problem I sometimes get and instead suggested something different. I was grateful that he respected my not wanting an examination and allowed me to send photos via email instead. It was helpful that he said I could contact the team if I have any problems and explained how to do that. It was great that I could have the appointment online for practical reasons (busy timetable, small child at home etc).
