Where else to look in Truro
We have not yet profiled a provider in Truro that we can link to this treatment from the CQC register.
Before you book
Truro has only one independent location with overnight beds on the CQC register, so for hospital-based treatment the realistic alternative may involve travel. Factor travel and follow-up visits into any comparison.
Ask how long the appointment is, and what any tests, letters or private prescriptions will cost on top.
