I found wendy on google as i was not happy with the spire bushey hospital quote. I had 4 cysts removed, wendy was lovely explained everything and how she will remove the cysts, during the removal she would tell me what was happening. Im so happy my cysts are gone if i get anymore i will definitely go back to wendy and would recommend her to friends and family.

I recently had a cyst on my scalp removed after finding Tocolo on Google. Wendy was very professional and friendly, she explained everything during the free consultation and again before and during treatment. Her clinic is spotless and was really good value, I only paid 300, elsewhere I was looking at 600+ for the same. It was quick and painless, I'm so happy i went to Wendy.

I had been struggling with how to have a growth removed from my back. I came across Wendy via Google, and made an appointment to have it looked at. Wendy was great from the outset, explaining what it was and the treatment involved in having it removed. From there on it was very easy, and Wendy was great throughout, the procedure went very well, and the aftercare has been lovely, even though I have not needed. The lump turned out being a lipoma, which is now removed, and I am very happy - I would definitely recommend Wendy to anyone looking to have the same

I had 4 X PRP treatments done on my scalp. My hair was thinning very badly. I found Wendy online, and reached out to her over email. Wendy was very responsive and I went in for a free consultation. Wendy is very knowledgeable there was no pressure to go through with the PRP she just gave me lots of information which helped me to make my own decision. The space is very clean and I would describe my experience as very professional. I would highly recommend Tocolo H&W and will definitely be returning in future. My hair growth is clearly noticeable, and Im very pleased with my results.

As the procedure began Wendy ensured that the anaesthetic was working and I couldnt feel anything, throughout the procedure Wendy talked to me to ease any anxiety I had and regularly checked in on me to ensure I was still ok. The lipoma removal was done really quickly and I was surprised at how tiny the incision was compared to the size of lipoma removal, Wendy did an exceptionally
